NCfan Posted May 21, 2005 Report Share Posted May 21, 2005 Does anyone have any info on him? I heard that the Dukes is loosely based on his lifestory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Coltrane Posted May 21, 2005 Report Share Posted May 21, 2005 The creator of the Dukes of Hazzard is Gy Waldron. Jerry Rushing did have influence, though. Ya see, before the Dukes, Waldron was working on a movie called "Moonrunners." He consulted with Jerry Rushing for the real-life experience Rushing had as a bootlegger. Rushing served as a technical advisor for the film and did some of the stunt driving.When the Dukes began production, Rushing continued to serve as an advisor, and in fact played Ace Parker in the episode, "Repo Men."Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
