Thanks for all this great information about the plates. It's amazing how good a mat-board plate looks on a back ground car.
A couple of years ago I tried joining the CGLFC but they weren't taking any new registrations. There was some good information there. I think Facebook has taken people away from regular forums. Facebook is good for immediacy but I like a standard forum like this one. You can start a thread and they are easy to navigate and find stuff. With Facebook the threads or rather posts just keep getting buried. You post something and then have to start a new post on the same topic to show an update. A lot of people like the immediacy of Facebook. I'm on Facebook but don't post much. There is too much going on on that site.
I have one of these kits. I haven't built it yet but plan to. It's white glow in the dark plastic that glows orange. It's actually accurate to the Charger used in that episode. It was a white Charger with the orange glow put in in post production.

Roger, I'd say you would have to get at least 6 inches in the air to be sure to clear the General Lee toy. You might want to reconsider such a death defying jump.
