  1. Yeah, I love writing using a different perspective (so imaging how a stranger could see Hazzard and Dukes). Funny.

    I wrote of Bo as the blond man and Luke as the brown (not dark) one...

    Oops! I meant Brown instead of dark.

    I just searched something in google. When I type Blonde, I see blonde haired men, when I type Brown man I find dark skin colored men and when I type Brown haired man I find wel... Brown haired men. :D

    So i think it is wrong here to say Brown man.

  2. It's a really nice chapter from a different perspective. I hope that's the right word. What I mean is That you involved Bo and Luke more into this chapter and adding Catherine too makes for a great story.

    I have the idea this chapter was half as short as the others but I just looked through the others and they are the same length, I guess this one was just faster read.

    It was really funny when Catherine referred to them not reading the Los Angeles times. :D

    You refer to Luke as a dark man, i'm not English but I believe a dark man is someone with a dark skin. A blonde is right though, you can't have a blonde skin. :p I don't know if you can edit chapter but I would change it to dark haired man.

    i1976, is Catherine Burns a reference to Catherine Bach and George Burns? I seem to remember vaguely they we're on a show together ones.

  3. They're not so easy to see in Europe are they?

    They aint :( luckly there is some sort of Euro Dukesfest at Circuit Park Zandvoort here in the Netherlands but I believe the last meeting was 2 years ago. :(

    Then, a few years ago I went to The Cars of the Stars museum in the north of England. It's closed now and I think the collection went to Florida, but one of their exhibits claimed to be a genuine screen-used General Lee. They had several Bond cars and Batmobiles etc. as well, but they only allowed you to take photographs if you spent a certain amount in their gift shop. It was a quite a small place and the no photo policy really sucked, but it's a shame the cars have gone so far away.

    Too bad I was in south England when I was on vacation over in the UK. :( It's a shame the museum is gone, I guess there would have been more visitor's if it was in London.

    About two or three years ago I went to an American car show here in Ireland and finally got to sit in a General - you should've seen the smile on my face :).

    I bet that you must have felt like a child in a candy store. :) By the way, did you enter it via the window or did the doors open?

    It looks like the pushbar goes into the hole under the bumper, this was in the series only for jump cars.

    Also, aint the colour a bit too bright?

    Anyway, If your a Dukes fans its amazing to see one.

    BTW, Roth, what's the Haynes Museum like? I planned to go a few years back, but never made it.

    That museum is great, not so much American muscle cars but the collection is great.

    They have a red room, it is filled with about 30 red cars varying from The Lamborghini Countach to a Triumph Spitfire and BMWs.

    They have two very rare cars which were from the 20s, unfortunately there was no information included unlike all the other cars but they looked to be a Duesenberg and a Bugatti but i'm not sure.

    There were a lot of Ferrari's, some Corvettes, Two beetles, Lotus cars, Fords, Mr Bean's Mini, a BMW 3 wheeler, 3 Tanks, Volkswagen's, 50s Cadillac De Ville and an American Ambulance like the one use in 'Deputy Dukes' but in red.

    Overall I spend many hours in there as there was just a lot to see, From American to European cars and even some Russian ones.

    If your into racing you should also pay a visit to Beaulieu, their collection is also very good for racing cars.

  4. Hello people,

    I was wondering if you ever saw a General Lee in person?

    I define a General Lee as being a 1969 Dodge Charger with paint job.

    Me, myself and I have never seen a drivable 1969 Dodge Charger. Let alone a General Lee. :cry::cry::cry:

    Though I was lucky enough to see a 1969 Dodge Charger in Haynes International Motor Museum during my vacation to the UK 3 years ago.

    When I saw the charger there I felt like the luckiest man alive. :D

  5. Thank you for the aerials Hoss but i still can't figure out at which side (north, south or west) the hood slide was filmed.

    You know he was trying to walk over the car but slipped? also he cut his hands on the antenna, since that moment they removed the antenna's.

    I believe this is during filming of Reunion 2 'Hazzard in Hollywood', It looks

    to be WGL02/GL1. as the mirror is moved forward and the 01 is big but

    small bordered.

    If it is that car it has made a small jump during the Second Reunion movie

    during the war scene, This picture seems to be in Laramie Street

    Lake Sherwood?

    I believe this is from the last episode 'Opening Night at the Boar's Nest'

    As I only see a big white wall behind the cars I think this is behind one

    of the WB sound stages.
