DukeOfEarl

I can see them now. They are in my members album with all the others. Maybe just a temporary glitch for you.

Haven't been here in a while. Tough fall semester, but things are starting to settle a bit. This cold weather we've been having makes it tough to get much done outside. Anyway, its was an exciting second half or 2010 with my family and dukes cars. We picked up two more Hazzard vehicles and another from a different tv series. :-P:-P Take a look once they get approved.

This car is extremely solid. The only rust other than surface rust is a very small section behind the rear passenger wheel. Floors are excellent. The body panels have a lot of dings but I would rather fix a ding then rust. I wanted to do the Hazzard police because that is most likely the car that people would remember from the show outside the General of course. I think the Caddy would be a close third. The light bar came with the car and it does function properly. I spent several hours polishing the lenses and chrome. The lenses are not perfect, but much, much nicer than when I purchased the car. I spoke with a recently retired PA State Trooper just last week about the light bar laws and if he thought I would have any trouble. He told me if I intended to have classic or antique plates on the car, he did not feel I would have any trouble. I think one of the first stops I make when it is all done will be directly to State Police Barracks. Then I will now for sure. Yes, the General in the picture album is ours. We just finished a 2 1/2 year restoration on it in July. i shouldn't say finished as it is a work in progress. If you have an old car, you know exactly what I mean. There is always something more to do.

Hey folks, the wife and I just picked up a Rosco Car from a fellow Dukes fan. Its a 1976 Fury Police Package California car. Check out the photos in my album when they get approved.

Sorry Roger and Hoss. I'll get this site figured out soon. I actaully noticed what I did shortly after the post but figured I wait until one of you two to spot it before admitting my guilt.

Roger, Thanks for asking. Don't be jealous though. It's taken many, many years and a lot of frustrating evenings to get to this point. What we found out is that you can only drive one at a time. We have on occasion asked friends to help us drive them to shows and then everyone involved is happy. We get our cars there and they get to drive one. Anyway, my wife and I, including the General, have a 68 big block Mustang GT Fastback, 68 Big Block Ford Torino Coupe, 1957 2dr Mercury Turnpike Cruiser (40k orig miles) and a 68 Mustang Fastback Project car (I'm thinking the Double Zero?) None are perfect. All except the project car are very clean drivers with the General being the nicest. By the way, I have an uncle that lives in Olean NY. Not sure how far that is from you, but maybe our paths could cross. Earl

Hello all. My name is Earl and would like to thank you for letting me join your network of friends. I live in Northeast PA with my wife and four wonderful children. We have several old muscle cars, but none as fun to drive as are recently restored General Lee. If you have one you know what I mean. I look forward to getting to know many of you and hopefully meet several of you at the some of the Duke events. Feel free to drop me a line, like many I could talk all day about this stuff, but I also enjoy my family time. Thanks again... I'm gone!
