  1. I know what you mean Local exotic car show I went too a few weeks ago I got shoved out of the way by an impatient jerk who couldn't wait the millisecond for my camera's shutter to work. Some nice pics you got. My grandpa had a red Gran Torino without the white Starsky & Hutch stripe, that thing was a beast when it ran but unfortunately it wasn't all that reliable
  2. That was the only part worth watching so you didn't miss much. A lot of empty stands this year even more so than last year I think.
  3. Great post on the main page meadowmuffin Growing up watching the Dukes of Hazzard it sorta feels like I lost a great uncle. I also remember him in 2 episodes of Andy Griffith where he played a wandering guitar player Jim Lindsey.
  4. RIP to one of the best actors and acting teachers.
  5. They get destroyed during the production of the movie in various stunts. Hollywood isn't in the car restoring business so whatever cars get wrecked during filming 9 times out of 10 get sent to the scrapyard unless someone involved with the movie or tv show wants to buy and fix up the wrecks.
  6. Just read a story that the latest Furious movie destroyed most of the cars they bought for production including 9 1968-70 dodger Chargers . I know it's a drop in the bucket compared to how many were destroyed making the Dukes of Hazzard series but still sad to see 9 more go to the scrapyard. I'll be glad when this movie franchise is finally dead!
  7. Thwart Boss Hogg in this 4×4 General Lee Charger 1968 Dodge Charger Charger with Dodge Durango Drivetrain Ebay listing Dodge Durango dash, steering wheel and seats just don't look right and it needs a rollbar. Done right this would be perfect General lee to take offroading.
  8. I think they brought Danica up to cup too soon. She should have stayed in xfinity series for another season or two. Even with extra time in the lower series she'd probably still be a mid field finisher at best.
  9. I tend to skip some of the Coy & Vance episodes though I will say those episodes allowed Denver and Catherine to shine a brighter light.
  10. I think these would look awesome on a Charger Rocket Racing Turbine Wheels
  11. 1968, 1969, or 1970 Dodge, If I can't find a 1968-70 I'd go for a 1971-74 Charger in Orange Either a 360 Magnum Crate Engine V8 or new Gen III 6.1L or 426ci Hemi v8 New Suspension from PST 4 piston caliper Brake kit from Wilwood, SSBS, Baer etc... Pushbar Turbine wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich Radial T/A's Roll bar Tan interior though the Top of the Dash would be black 5 point safety harnesses Vintage Air Heater/AC Lightly Tinted Windows Custom AutoSound sound system with CB Confederate Flag, General Lee & 01

    NASCAR news

    I agree Nascar should have waited to Indefinitely Suspend Kurt Busch till he's been proven guilty of something. Right now it's all Hearsay, He Said, She Said. Feel bad for Kyle Busch getting hurt but he only has himself to blame as he was pushing in the Tri-oval which is not a place to be pushing someone. Can't believe they've spent so much money Upgrading Daytona yet they still don't have Safer barriers all around the inside of the track.
  13. Awesome Pictures thanks for sharing the memories That coloring book in post 979 I'm pretty sure I still have that one from my childhood as I remember that cover. Great times growing up watching that show, one of the local stations even ran it on Saturday mornings till about 1990.
