Boss JD Hogg

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.

Hoss, where did you hear that this General Lee is a rebodyed Crown Vic? That's interesting.

That's a great quote!

This is a great picture of the General Lee!

These are great pictures Roth!

Lord

Years ago when I first saw people using LOL I thought it meant Lots Of Love. I guess seeing everyone using it when things weren't funny, Lots Of Love made more sense.

Happy Belated Birthday Christopher(Vance)!

Get Smart! (Very funny show)

How did I miss this. Sheriff Little was a great character and Don Pedro Colley played him well!

Happy Belated birthday Rick(Cletus)!

Happy New Year!

Not too much excitement in the last 24 hours. I was working on building a model of a Visitor Laser Jeep from the 1984 TV series 'V'. I had picked up 3 Monogram 1/24 scale Jeep kits. 2 are being built as the Jeeps from 'V' and one will be Daisy's Jeep. I watched a couple of episodes of MASH this evening with my wife. MASH is another favorite TV show of mine.

Merry Christmas everybody! My wife and I are staying home with the cats and my dad is coming over!

Thanks Roth! One of the reasons I used the magnet for attaching the antenna is if I need to pack the model to move. An antenna will be the first part to break off.

Thanks Hoss! I really enjoy building the General Lee. Now I just need to build a Boars Nest!

Thanks again Roger! "Dukes Meet Cale Yarborough" is one of my favorite episodes. I remember back when I first saw it I thought the white Charger was so cool and then the 3 General Lees at the end was even better. The 2 different colors are like seeing a picture from Dukesfest. There were always different orange GL's there. I'm going to stick with the Corvette Flame Red color for the next General Lee's I build. I'm planning on building LEE 1 and LEE 3 from "One Armed Bandits" using Revell '69 Charger kits. I also have a 1/16 General Lee kit I'll be building soon and a Ghost Of The General Lee kit. I can never have enough General Lees.

Here are some pictures I took with both General Lees I built. The lighter orange GL is this one I just finished and the darker orange GL is the one I built last year. This new one is painted 1975 Corvette Flame Red which was the main color used on the beauty cars on the show. The last one I built is Chevrolet Hugger Orange which is a darker, more red, looking orange.

Thanks Roger! The antenna is removable using magnets. I installed a magnet under the trunk.
