1hellraiser

Welcome young duke. We ain't the actors from the show, (wish i was though, but I do drive a mean car, if you think buicks are mean). I understand getting picked on. My Feance, calls me a Dukes Geek. I feel your pain. But on the bright side, I goto bed and dream of daisy, and all is well. Have fun here, I sure am

Ok, crew we need to settle the air, on the best car movie of all time. Truckers movies are included. My vote goes for the return to macon county, with nick nolte, and don johnson.

Hey Capt., Did'nt the ending of the movie get used in the fall guy?

Brian, you disapoint me. I thought you being coltrane and all, you'd know all the anti law movies, . The Rubber Duck, (kris kristofferson), drives a black mack, with ali mc graw, riding shotgun. The whole mess starts, when the sheriff, (ernest borgnine), gets in a fight with another trucker, in the truck stop. With ali mcgraws charecter, being a photographer, she is able get the press involved with the convoy. By this time, another trucker, has sideswiped a school bus. Then the issue of truckers rights gets involved, (diesel prices, low load wages, dirty dispatchers..... much like today). By the end of the movie the chase hets out of hand, and the Duck, dumps his truck in the river. Where they use the truck as a casket for him. But at the very end of the movie, he is seen in the back of the "11 long hair friends of Jesus", bus with ali mcgraw on the way to Mexico. The is bascially the plot, if im wromg please correct, you guys usually do.

Part 4 is done, yall. PLEASE TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK. I REALLY VALUE EVERYONES OPINION.

Part Iv!! The next morning arrived. John stumbles out of his room, lighting his first smoke of the morning. He makes his way to the porch, to enjoy the brisk morning air. He is sitting there trying to plot a way to get a car for the race, and help the Boss. Boss walks out of the house, “Morning John, you know your father and uncle had the same look on their face when they had a race coming up. I remember back when they got the General. You see at first it was a wreck, from the junkyard, but in better shape than the car I gave you. They stayed holed up in Cooters garage for days. God I remember when they pulled out, it was beautiful sight. The Rebel flag was waving proud, and the orange just shined in the sun, Jesse was so proud of the boys. He raised them from little boys. He gave up the one thing that made him happiest, just to keep them out of prison. I wish that I would of straightened up, before he got sick, and they left. I miss old Jesse, I know the hell I put your family through, but damnit I loved him like a brother, and the boys like they mine. I was just to greedy to show it. You do remind me a lot of Bo, when he was your age, looks, driving skills, attitude, everything. I feel sorry for the other fathers around here. You know since coming back, I want my county back, Rosco, is just to mean to run it now. Times have changed, after looking on the ride back, I never noticed this but hazzard needs help, we need factories, jobs, daycare. When I get back, that’s what I’m going to do, we have a few old factories that we can rebuild, I still have some contacts, hazzard will thrive againâ€. Just then Daisy walks out, “morning boysâ€, she hands John and Boss, a cup of coffee. “John, if you’ll follow me into the barn I have a surprise for you†John, walks with her to the barn, as daisy opens the door, “I brought this back from capitol city last night, I want to have itâ€. John looks stunned as she takes the tarp off of a 1986 Monte Carlo SS. “Wow, this is a 1986 Monte Carlo SS, nice, look at it, jet black.†He wipes the tears away. He pops the hood open, “this has a 454 with fuel injection.†He lays under it, “Racing suspension, rears, and compition clutch, damnâ€. Daisy tosses him the keys, as he slides in behind the wheel, he notices, a hurst racing shifter, sun tach, and the traditional cobra cb. He primes the engine, and give the key a twist. All of a sudden, 550 horses come to life, the sound of the finely tuned GM motor roars, thru a set of straight pipes running hot from the exhaust manifold. He pops the cb, on to channel 7. He gives the gear range a going thru. As he pulls the sun visor down, a note falls from the visor. “take care of her and she will treat you right, love Aunt Daisyâ€. Just then Bo, Luke, Jr, Beth, Debbie and Jake, come running out of the house. John pulls the car out of barn, and with a cloud dust he circles the General. He looks at Bo and Luke, “your in trouble, I got my carâ€, John exclaims. He gets out, and gives Daisy a big hug. “Hey, Jake wanna give her a run?â€, Jake replies, “Hell Yeahâ€, and climbs in thru the windows. As he is climbing in Beth jumps in “you two be careful, and be back by lunchâ€, They reply “yes Maamâ€. With that they left, Boss looks at the boys, you know just have them tuck in their shirts, and they would be you two 20 odd years agoâ€, Bo smiles, “you know boss we still gotta get you out of hot water with Rosco, I do have an idea, now without a policy, for the insurance, he ain’t got a case against ya. I called Cooter last night after everyone went to bed, and explained everything to him. He is coming in to watch the race, anyway so he has agreed to watch the garage, for a while. He should be there now. “Well Bo, I know where he keeps the important papers, he usually keeps them in his piggy bank, hidden in my old safe at the boars nest. The thing is to keep Rosco occupied long enough, to get the policy.†“That’s no problem, with John and Jake, running around, they can outsmart him, I’ll just give them a shout.†Luke says. “Now wait a minute, with or without the policy, all Rosco has to do, is call the insurance company, and get another copy of it, what we need to do, is to catch him with his pants down. He didn’t do anything wrong, for all he knew Boss was dead, and buried, at least that’s what he told them. We have to get him to admit, knowing Boss was alive, with that he will be just as guilty, and he’ll be jail too. Now the only one who can do that is Boss, but we have to wire him, we only got one shot, that is if Rosco don’t shoot first.†Bo Jr. suggests. “True but we can’t put Boss in that position, because if we do, Rosco will have him under the jail, before you know it, if we can get to Rosco, and get him to talk, were all set. Hey Bo, remember that old Burt Reynolds movie, where he played the stunt man?†Luke asks. “Yeah, didn’t he want a raise, for a car stunt, and he took the director for a ride, he scared the tar out of him, and got his raise.†Bo tells him. “Exactly, but he won’t ride with us, he knows John and Jake to good, but he still trusts Enos, don’t he†Luke smiles, and looks at Daisy. “Luke you cannot be serious, Enos is retired, and his old station wagon don’t scare anyone, but the chickens he tries not to runover.†Daisy tells him. “How about one of the girls here, he’d trust them, and he don’t know that Boss is here. So all we have to do is disable is car, and Beth here, will be there to pick him up in the General, and she will scare the truth out of himâ€, Luke says. “What about me, Luke†Debbie asks. “You don’t have driving ability to scare a frog, you gotta understand, he has ridden with us, (he points to him and Bo), Beth has been driving in the Powder Puff league at the track, she can scare the pants off of him, or maybe charm them off†Luke tells her, (Bo, gives Luke a slap in the back of his head!!) Just then the radio blasts off. “Hey yall on the hazzard net, this is the #1 Hell raiser (Johns handle), I got Rosco, on my backdoor, I can shake him, unless you got different plans, come on backâ€. “Ok Raiser, don’t shake him, let him get close then knock him off the roadâ€. Luke tells him. “10-4 Unc. Can do. By the way, this car is a monster, the General is gonna demoted to private in a weekâ€. Bo grabs the mic, “Keep talking like that, your gonna be grounded before the race, kid.†“The only reason you would ground me is because your scared of the General, getting beatenâ€. John shot back. After the cb exchange, John got down to business. As the Monte Carlo, was racing down the dirt road, Rosco, began to fall back, John spun the car around and headed toward Rosco. As they sped, toward each other, neiter him or the wily old sheriff, would break, and turn. The Monte Carlo, was shifted into 4th gear, and was approaching 110 mph. They kept getting closer, John could see the look fear in Rosco’s face. “I have been fighting them Dukes, for over 30 years, this time I will not back down, this time they will go in the ditch.†Rosco thought. Now they were about 30 feet away from each other, “Jake he ain’t braking†John shouts out. Just then, Rosco, spins the wheel to the left, and drops the car in the ditch. “Lost sheep 1 and 2, this is the #1 Hellraiser, mission accomplished, dropped him on Higby pass, and the car, has two flat tires, and the radator head butted a tree. He aint going nowhere.†Beth, jumps in the general, and heads off for Higby pass. (Balladeer:, doncha just love when a plan comes together, sit tight for part 5.)

I been busy, trying to fix my truck, and this stupid computer. Anyone wanna help with part 4 of the story jump in.

I miss the old racing. The problem is with the new racing is, the cars are to sleek. In the 70's and 80's, even the 60's, (cant count the superbird, that car was so good it was banned!!). The cars then were blocks with wheels. If you put mid 80's monte carlo, up against the new ones, on aero. alone the new car would win. Plus the cars now, are made almost to self destruct, so the driver would have a better chance of not getting hurt. Back then the sheet metal was thicker, thus making the car hevier. So if there was a petty-pearson like battle now, no one would have a chance. Also the drivers, you cannot compare drivers like Cale, Darrell, Junior Johnson, Fireball Roberts, to todays drivers, because they were better. They had a better feel for the car, because they either built it, or were more involved in the building of it. Also the speeds, if you looks at the 1985 (I wanna say Daytona but I really dont remember), Bill Elliot qualified @ 215 mph, after that we got restricter plates, racing is not racing with the horses being choked. The, way the drivers act now is scary, all they are is a corperate robot. I remember seeing david pearson, grabbing a smoke during a red flag stop, (lets see Jr. do that!). The drivers have to censor, everything they do and say, im sorry but if i'm drafting gordon, and I see Jimmy Spencer come up behind me, you bet your rear end, I'll be cussing, (and for good reason). What nascar needs, is 1), make pit road speed 65, and a big orange flag to mark the beginning and end of pit road. 2), bring back, the old shorttracks, and lose places that don't care for nascar. 3), make the lapped cars, leave the track, in the last half of the race. Why should I have to see my driver, struggle, with the lapped cars, and give him bad air, just so they can get a couple of points, even though they are nowhere in the hunt, for the win or championship. 4), Hendrick teams, they are the dark side of nascar, with jeff gordon, being Darth Vader, make them disband, (wont happen but a nice thought). 5), Restricter plates, they are just no good, as I said why choke the horses, ok speeds wold be high, but look at the IRL, they average 200 mph, with the same car field. I believe Darell is right, Capt. Redneck you are right!

Tell Me what you think I can take it.

Part 3 As Boss ran into the garage, he tackled John, as John went butt over tool box, Boss was panting like a dog chasing Lassie. Jake crawled out from under the Roadrunner. “what the heck is goin’ onâ€, he asks. “Boys listen, that jackass of a sheriff, is after me. He says that what I did was insurance fraud, he put a policy on my life for 10 grand, and when I had left town, he collected, now he’s after me†Boss tells them. “Ok, hide in the bed in the truck and we’ll drive you to the farm, then dad can help sort this out, with John driving, he can shake Rosco†Jake tells him. They jump in the truck and take off. Jake calls Luke on the cell phone, tells him to wait up. As they make the curve out of town, Rosco catches up, he tries to bump the 1985 ford truck off the road. But John, pops the clutch, and slaps the stick into 4th gear. The 351 mill with the straight pipes roar, and with a cloud of dust, the race was on. Rosco, was trying to manuver around the truck, but the crown victoria just wasn’t powerful enough to keep up, but just quick enough, to make him hard to shake. As John, slowed around the corner, Rosco bumped the driver side, of the truck. Causing it to slide out of shape. John recovered the truck quickly, as he made his was back thru the gear range. Rosco, was side by side with the truck. Rosco was trying to bump him off the road. John slammed the brakes and clutch, and let Rosco pass. Rosco curved in front of the truck, John jammed it into 3rd, and popped the nitrous. The truck slammed into the backend of the police car. The sound of thunder echoed, as Rosco, spilled the car into the ditch. He stopped and saw the sheriff, spitting out grass, and dirt. “know what, that move would have made old Dale proud“, John says as he lights his cigarette. They pull into the farm, Bo meets them outside, and sees the damage to the truck, “I see you had a run in with the law huhâ€. “Funny, very funny dad, did Luke tell you what’s goin’ on†John asks. “Yeah, where is heâ€, Bo asks. “In the back, how do you like your bacon, shaken or stirredâ€, Jake jokes. Boss jumps out, as he is shaking the dirt off, â€I see you have your fathers sense of humor, badâ€, Boss replies. Now the boys had told the girls and Daisy, so no fainting would occur. Beth, and Debbie come out to see the commotion. John, walks up to Beth, “It was rough, I think the truck needs a few more horsepower, and a quicker suspension. Rosco, almost caught usâ€. “If I had a dime for every time that Rosco, almost caught your father, and uncle, we’d be awfully rich. It’s just a fact of life, Rosco gets close, he screws up, we nail him to the wall, now get in the house, Aunt Daisy, wants to get her car back, and since she has the title, your in trouble with her†Beth informs him. As he goes in the house, Luke stops him. “Kid, I’ve seen her steamed, your in for long night. By the way, Kylie Mcdowell, stopped by the garage, asking a lot of questions about you. She pretty cute in that sundress, if I was 20 again, I’d go after herâ€, Debbie slaps Luke in the arm and laughs. (balladeer, now for those you who do not know Kylie, she is about 5’4 with redhair, and curves like a bag full of bobcats, with the personality of a apple pie, sweet, and sugary, with a bit of spice) John makes in past the door, as Daisy corners him, he sits in the chair. “Listen here John Duke, you had no right to take that car, your father and uncle destroyed that car. That was my first car, after it was destroyed I thought I’d never see it again, now that it’s back, I want it back. I have a car that I’ll trade you for it, I bought it when I was in North Carolina. I already talked about with Bo, and Luke and they say, even Cooter couldn’t get that car back in shape, for the race. It barely even starts. If anyone should get it, it should be Boss Hogg, because he rebuilt it, he don’t want it, so it’s mine again.†John, just sat there dazed, thinking he got ranover by a mack truck. “Whoa paint, who put hi test in you, relax, I was thinking the same thing, the roadrunner, can’t be redone in a week. Even, with Dad, Luke, Jake, and a prayer there is just too much to be done, and parts are hard to get. It, needs a new tranny, engine which I have, axles, steering assembly, it just needs everything. So, I was going to sit the race out, and work the pits for Dad and Luke. Plus I want to see what the mythical General Lee can do.†John tells her. Now while all of this was going on, Bo, Luke, and Boss were laying out a plan, to get rid of the policy, and to give back the 10 grand to the insurance company. (balladeer:, now ya’ll sit tight it’s starting to get good. Part IV is coming)

Hi, all Ben Jones responded to a letter of mine today. Let me tell I have never heard a more gracius person in my life. I had told him about my problems with alcohol, (5 yrs sober!). He responded to my letter, with a note. I don't want to make any promises, but I hope to be at Dukesfest.

At first it was because of the Dukes. My fav. was King Richard, and Cale. After they retired it became the best driver ever Dale Sr. I watched every so often. It wasn't until I became a truck driver, and had a run to N.C. that I became a loyal fan. My rig had broken down, and of course I didn't have a cell phone, and the cb was quiet for hours. Basically I was stuck. I decided to fall asleep, and try again in the morning. Which I had done. The next morning, I grabbed a pack of smokes, and started walking. I walked for probably about a mile, when I had noticed an American flag, in the distance. I kept walking towards the flag, (passing other buildings, but curiosity kills the cat you can say). I had finally got to the building and to my surprise it was Dale Earnhardts garage. The door was open, I walked in, and began to nose around. About 5 minutes later, Dale sr. came out, and asked what I was doing there. (this was about 6 in the morning). I told him what had happened to my rig, and told him that I didn't have a phone, to use. He had let me use the shop phone, to call the dispatcher, and he even gave me a cup of coffee. That is real downhome, niceness. Since then I was a loyal Dale sr. and now (sadly...much sadly) a Jr. fan. Jr, has alot of his fathers driving in him, but he is more media savvy than his dad was. As for the better driver, it will always Sr.

As they circle town, old Boss began to cry, Luke dropped him off at the police station. He let Boss walk in. Luke pulled up as Bo, was unhooking the roadrunner. I don't believe it, the Boss is back, and the roadrunner. Luke exclaims, as they push the car in the garage. In the police station was a different story, Rosco, was sure suprised to see his old boss. As Rosco drops his coffee, "Rosco, you numbskull" Boss cries outs, and gives him a hug. Well things are different now, nice and honest, Jesse Duke is gone, Cooter is a goverment official, and Bo, and Luke are married with kids. Damn, I cant beleve it." Boss excliams. "Only one thing is different, J.D. Hogg you are under arrest, for insurance fraud. You see when you died, I had an policy on you for 10,000. I collected it. You always thought I was stupid, Boy you were wrong. I didn't watch you for all those years to get nothing. Sure I ran Hazzard honest, but all of the 50% of 50% you gave me, got me nowhere. With Lulu, and Jesse gone, there is no one to fight for you. Bo and Luke wouldn't now because they have families, and their kids, are nothing like them, only in looks and a little driving talent. Now hazzard is just to tame, and people don't care." Rosco told him, as Boss was shaocked and a little impressed. But as Rosco, was putting the cuffs on him, he shook loose, and knocked Rosco, down. With that he ran to the garage, for help. {part III, is coming would be easier but looks like I got no help with this one, some kind duke spirit }

sorry

The idea of my story is too good to die. I just need some help to develop the storyline.

The outline of the story, is: Boss comes back to hazzard, and John gets his car, wants to find a girlfriend, (the ladies of H-net are welcome to help), and he races the Roadrunner in the hazzard, natls race against Bo and Luke, and also Jake. So anybody have some ideas jump on in. I'l write along with you.

After John, and Bo found out they were father and son, things settled for a while. John had rented himself a small Apt. near Cooters garage, (it was still named Cooters, the boys never changed it) and stayed usually wrist deep in crankcases. His old black mustang was destroyed after making the bridge jump, John was fine, but the Old muscle car, took too hard of a beating, and was basically crushed. After being nursed back to health, by Chance and Kristy, he decided to had to get back on the road. So, John, Bo jr., and Jake went car shopping. After going thru the junkyards, and car lots, all they found was rats, 4 legged and 2 legged. In a moment of defeat, John called his old racing partner to see if he had any leads. Of course this lead nowhere. They went to, a dark junkyard that no one had been to in years. Hoggs Auto Retreat, after walking around in there, for an hour, he came upon a 1973 yellow roadrunner, that looked like it was in rough shape, but the body was there, and the frame was in good shape. He decided to rescue this vision of lovlyneess. Since the junkyard was vacent he didn't what to do, so he did the next best thing, he called his father at the garage. He pulled out his cell phone, and rang him up. After explaining the situation, Bo jumped in the truck came out for a visit. Him and Jake, got the engine to turnover, but the spark was way out of tune, and the rats ate the wires. Bo showed up, to the Junkyard, "God, boys I ain't been here since me an Luke were your age, well lets see the car." They move and Bo see's the Roadrunner, sitting there as if a ghost of the past. "You know John, you have a rough way to bring back memories", Bo exclaims. "This was Daisy's car, before she got the jeep, it was destroyed in a wreck, over 20 years ago...." Bo trails off in disbelief. "Dad, maybe it is a different car, Plymouth must have made thousands like this", John explains. "One way to find out, I had left my probation paperwork in the trunk, if it is here, then I'll know". Bo then goes over to the trunk, and with a moan of a prybar on metal, it opens. Bo, looks thru the trunk, and sees nothing, besides a toolbox, and a newspaper, from 1982. "This is strange, the toolbox belonged to Uncle Jesse, I remember he lost it after the car crash", he opens the tool box, and finds Jesses old tools. "This car was destroyed, I know it was I saw the crash, hell I was in the crash, I better call Luke". Bo calls luke and tells him meet him at the junkyard, when an old haggard looking man walks thru. He was short, fat, and wearing a white suit. Bo looks over, and almost faints at the sight of Boss Hogg. "Boss is that you, no wait, a minute you died 10 years ago, I was a pallbearer" Bo gets cut off, "No Bo it's me, I been hiding here for 10 years, I was rebuilding the car here, as something to do. You see I faked my death, to save the lives of the people of hazzard. I had gotten myself in over my head, with a Syndicate family. I was trying to make one last try, to get some syndicate attention, when I caught them trying to run guns, thru hazzard. I knew that if they made it, there would be no stopping them. So I turned them into the Atf, and I had faked my death. If I hadn't God only knows what would happened. So, Rosco brings me out some food each month, I still run the county but thru him. I decided to run it honest, now because after so many years of seeing what I was doing to everyone I knew, I just couldn't do it anymore. I'm sorry to hear about Jesse, he was a good man, actually, he knew I was here to, I made him swear, not to tell anyone. He kept me up you and Luke, I'm glad to see you boys back in hazzard, where you belong." Just then Luke pulls up, He does a double take, as he sees the roadrunner, and Boss. "What the hell is this, the cars was destroyed, and your dead. Boss tells Luke everything that had happened. "By the way, Bo, if you want you can have the roadrunner for the kid here" Bo takes the keys. "Boss, Would you like to come to town, and see it again" Luke asks, Boss accepts, his offer, and gets in the truck.

Later that night Bo and Luke pull in with the parts for the mustang. Everyone is at the table, listening to Johns story, of his first jump. "first Jr, and Jake went first, I hit ramp at 90, and flew over ok, but the landing I hit hard, and felt some snaps and pops. Bo sr. chimes in, The first time we jumped the General, we dropped the transmission, so I feel your pain. Ok, enough with the car talk time for dinner, Daisy tells them. After grace, john ate up, and went outside to fix the car. Bo comes out, well, it dont look too bad, want some help with it. Bo asks. No almost done, is there a place we can talk, john replies. Right here, whats up, bo says. I just want you to know, that whatever comes of this, I really like you and your family, and would like to stay on until I can get settled. I'd like to work in your garage to if I could. It, looks like a 2 man operation with you and Luke, but if there is anything I can do to help. John says. Well ol' Luke wants to work inside, at the desk, and I spend most of the day pumping gas, so the cars we do have to fix, are far behind schedule, so any help would be much apprieciated. Bo tells him. They shake hands and go in the house. John, goes to bed. The next morning, he gets up, and goes to the garage, with Bo and Luke. He spends all day working on the backlog of cars. Bo gets a call, from the post office, he has a registered letter. He goes down to the post office, and gets the letter. It's the results, from the test. Hey John, Luke come here the results are in, Bo exclaims. Bo hands the letter to Luke, and opens it. Lukes reads it over, and says John you are 99.8% Bo's son. Luke gives them both a slap on the back, and winks, you dont know what youv'e gotten yourself into. Bo calls Beth, and she tells everybody. After they got done at the garage, they went home to a big barbeque. That is how the 1hellraiser came to hazzard.

It was a quiet morning in Hazzard, Bo sr. and Luke were at the garage, (in case you missed it when cooter went to congress, the boys bought the garage), Beth, Debbie, and Daisy were sleeping back at the farm. And Bo jr., with Jake were doing their chores. (a 1967 mustang, roars thru hazzard, oil slick black), (the balladeer: well weve seen what mustangs can do to Hazzard haven't we). The mustangs pulls into Cooters, as bo comes out, the driver of the musclecar climbs out teh window. Bo stood there in shock. It was an image of him, 25 years ago. Bo walks up to the car, : can I help you? Yeah, fill it up please, the driver responded. Bo gasses up the car, and starts to talk to him: So are you new around here? Yes sir, just looking for work, and I have some business with a Bo Duke, the kid told him. Well I'm him, lets go in the garage, Bo shrugged him in. He follows him in. My name is John Waylon Barsdow, My Mother is Mary Ellen Barsdow does that name ring a bell? John told him. Bo looks around, Mary yeah I went with her years ago, when I was running shine why? Bo asks. I have every reason to believe your my father, the kid shoots back. If you notice, I'm 6 foot tall, blond hair, and can out drive everything on the road, also my mother gave me a picture of you and her, when you were seeing each other, and on her deathbed, she told me that you were my father" Bo was in shock, by now Luke had overheard the conversation, How can we believe that you are who you say you are? Look at the picture, also she gave me something to give Bo, (he hands him a old set of keys, the mustang, the initals on the chain were BD), you left this car in her garage, when you being chased, she then told that your cousin, picked you up in a orange stock car", Bo begins to remember, I remember that run, it was the only run to Hueytown Ala., and I was running block for luke, when the car blew a rod, by the time we could come get the car we were on probation. Your mother and I went out for a while she used to drive back and forth to hazzard. But she broke it off with me, she never said why. The reason is, she got pregant by you, and was ashamed to be unmarried and pregant, if you want I, would like to take a blood test, and straighten this out, I'm not looking for money, or land, just answers. Bo, still shaken says ok, I'll drive you to the clinic, for the test, Luke I'll be back in an hour. They jump in the General, and speed off. So, John what have you been doing all this time, Bo asks, trying to break the silence. Well, sir I began to build the car when I was 15, It was basically ruined, I put a new engine, tranny, all new lines, bodywork, and interior in the car. When It was done, I began to race it, After I saw what I could do to a car, I started to work in a garage, then In my senior year I quit school, to race full time. Before then I was working on the grandfathers farm, where me and mom moved, when I was a baby. I played football, and baseball, but everynight when I came home, mom was sitting in that car, mostly laughing, listening to the radio. But she took sick, with a bad heart. My grandparents, couldn't take care of the farm, so I took the responsibilty for the most part, doing what I could. I did make it to Talladega, to watch you race, I then noticed that your driving style and mine were alot alike, also on the tv, I noticed some simularties. Mom would cry, everytime the race was on, and you were in it. That plus what she told me, makes me think you are my father. Like I said, I'm not looking for anything, just to meet you, and maybe get some help, working in the garage. By then Bo was pulling into the clinic, They took the test. Bo: well you gotta be tired after the trip, I'll drop you at the farm, to get some rest if you want. Thanks, yeah it was a long drive. They pull into the yard, Beth meets him at the door, she gives him a kiss. Bo, who's your friend, she asked. This is John, he thinks i'm his father, from the sounds of things he maybe right. I dropped him off to get some rest. Beth asks, you have a second son, Bo Duke, how many kids do you have? Bo replies just 1 for sure, and possibly him, I swear. Ok, go back to the garage, beth reassures him. Come on in, your in time for lunch. Beth introduces John to everybody, This is Daisy, Bo and Lukes cousin, this is Debbie, Lukes wife, Bo jr. Bo's and my son, and Jake, Lukes son. John waves to everyone, and says hi. Beth asks, why do you think Bo is your father. So John lays the story out to them. John: is there a place where I can take a shower and a quick, I'll be more than happy to help with chores afterward? Beth, says: the shower is in there, feel free to clean up. If you need anything just holler. John cleans up, walks out of the bathroom. Beth looks in shock, She see's what John's mother saw. He is now in a black tshirt, and blue jeans. After a shave he is a dead ringer for her husband. Ok, John grab a nap on the couch here, we'll wake you for dinner. Actually maam, the shower woke me up, is there anything I can do to help out? Jake and Bo, are going into town for parts for their car, if you want go with them. Beth tells him. Are you sure that it would be ok, it must be a shock, for Jr. He asks. No he's ok, he always wanted a brother, and this is his chance, with that, the boys came out. Jake, asks, you goin, or staying? I'm goin. He jumps in the back seat. Trying to make small talk, Jr. asks, so what kind of car you got. A 67 mustang, with a 427, 3 on the tree. It pushes 500 h.p., havent lost a race with it. Noticed your car, (77 trans am), it fast too, wouldn't mind racing it, but i dont know the roads. John shoots back. Jake says, it's a 77 trans am, like on the movies, it has the 455 hi output in it, but we need some springs, and a new intake manifold, this one doens't quite have enough to power it the way we want. So, where are we going John asks. To the garage, dad called and he said the parts are in, jake tells him. Cool, then you can see my car, john exclaims. They make into the garage, John, motions them to his mustang, which was moved to make room to pump gas, (john like his father is forgetful at times). John pops the hoods, and shows them the engine. By now Bo and Luke, had already checked the car, over. They run into the shop, and gets the parts, Bo yells, JOHN COME HERE. John walks over. They had to take the test to Atlanta, we should get the results in three days, I already called Beth, and you are bunking with the boys, and working with us. With a car like that, you do have talent. John shoots back, yeeeeeeehaw. Everybody looks around, John, says what, was it something I said?. They all chuckled, no your definatly a Duke with a yell like that, jake tells him. Now Luke, wasn't so receptive, of the kid. Now, boys we don't know that yet. John, jumps in the mustang and says, Jr., Jake lets race back to the farm. The boys say, our pleasure. With that they gun off. Jr. grabs the mic, on his cb, ok, follow us, the handle is bo peep. John shoots back, I dont know about that, by the way this is the #1 hellraiser, thats my handle, over and out. With that the race on. #1 passes peep, just in time for Rosco's kid Brian catches them in the trap, and races out. Peep:, Ok raiser we got smokey, and he is mean, better follow us, or were are in the clink. 10-4, hellraiser falls behind the boys to follow them. They pass a bridge out sign, Uh, guys did you see that sign back there that said bridge out?hellraiser asks. Thats why we want to follow us, there is a part of the bridge left, acts like a ramp, we'll jump it and smokey will get a bath, Jr explains. Jump it, right why not just turn around and run him off the road? Hellraiser asks. That wouldn't be fun, just keep the car floored and follow us. Peep tells him. They make the jump, the mustang lands hard. And the car loses the springs. Raiser, you ok, Peep asks. I'm fine, but my lost has lost the spring in her step, I'm gonna have to limp back to the farm. They pull into the farm, John jumps out of the car, and lays under it, Damn, the springs are shot, and so is the tie rods, John crys out. Bo and Jake walk up the car, well we'll call the shop, and have dad bring the parts back. Bo, tells him.

This in my guess, is the best trucker flick of all time. It came out in 1975, with jan michael vincent, and kay lenz. Jan, plays a honest trucker that just came back from the war, and his fathers company, (his father died) went dirty. It shows what, the company did to keep him from shutting them down.

Lets see, my music is odd, but heres the list 1: Waylon 2: Mr. Cash 3: Steve Earle 4: Kid Rock 5: Led Zeppelin 6: Skynyrd 7: Metallica 8: Guns 'n' Roses 9: Johnny Paycheck 10: Hank Williams Jr. This is the odd part, I have a 2005 Mustang (thanx to a very loving uncle, now deceased), and I lovvvve the Music coming from the tailpipes of that beast.

ok yall your in luck, copied this from amazon: "The preeminent moonshine movie, the 1958 Thunder Road stars Robert Mitchum as a backwoods bootlegger in Tennessee, getting squeezed by both the federal government and organized crime. Mitchum had a big hand in creating this cult favorite (which reportedly played in drive-ins around America for years), writing the script, producing the movie, and even composing and singing the movie's theme song, which became a radio hit. Directed by longtime cinematographer Arthur Ripley, the film is strong on characters and action, the latter fulfilled by a memorable chase scene at the end. Mitchum was at an artistic peak at this point in his career, and this is really an indispensable movie for his fans. --Tom Keogh --This text refers to the VHS Tape edition. " It is on dvd, for 14.00 I think.

The Moonrunners was a sequel, to Thunder Road. It came out in the late 50's, and had Robert Mitchum, and James Mitchum, (the "luke char. on the moonrunners).

65% (Dixie). A definitive Southern score! Not bad for someone from upstate ny.

ok now, since we have the, moonshine run, and we know how they ended up on probation. How about this, how did the duke boys and daisy end up with jesse? This could end up like star wars. Two movies, about the beginning. Picture Darth Hogg: "Luke I am your Uncle.
