RogerDuke Posted July 8 Report Share Posted July 8 (edited) Good to hear from you Mr. Lee. You are right...it is looking like a car again. But not just any car....the greatest car that has ever rolled down the road in the history of the world. Thanks for the update. Keep up the good work.

Hobie Hartkins Posted August 5 Report Share Posted August 5 Yes! Welcome to Hazzard County! Make sure to keep us up on it as you go! I'm about to do what I do every night. " Go to Hazzard". When I tell my wife " I'm going to Hazzard", she knows I'm going to bed and watching it in bed until I fall asleep. THEN I'm STILL in Hazzard.....H.I.M.M. ( Hazzard In My Mind). Good to see you Darth! RogerDuke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome. Where did you come up with that idea?! Welcome to the HazzardNet! I love Star Wars, and I love the Dukes. I don't know who made this combo, but someone sent it to me YEARS ago. I'm going to build it one day into a model. It'll be great. RogerDuke and Hobie Hartkins 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't get into it until after the fourth movie was made but really got into it after that. I even ended up reading the books. I'm also watching the prequels on Amazon. I think they start up again at the end of the month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Lee Posted August 25 Author Report Share Posted August 25 Some more progress Repainted pushbar and licenceplate are on. Also worked hard this weekend repainting the inside of the hood. It's T3 Light Bronze Metallic now, just like the original one. I'm so happy with the result! Went to the process of sanding, primer, basecoat and shiny clearcoat.

The color will always be discussed. But LEE1 was originaly T3 Light Bronze Metallic with Orange painted on the outside, so if you make a replica this is the way to do it in my opinion. Thanks for the compliments all 🙏 Hobie Hartkins 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
