floyd012010 Posted July 28, 2024 Posted July 28, 2024 I haven't been here in awhile. Life happens and so I quit my job and started my own business. Anyway just recently I was told of a museum close to where I live that was like the Boars Nest. Literally 20 minutes from my house out a little 2 lane road was this awesome spectacle. It is Cooters garage from the California episodes and it is very much tv accurate. To the RH side he has built a screen accurate Boars Nest and when I say it is screen accurate I mean down to the original juke box and pinball machine. Boss's office has the pool table and the big sword fish on the wall. I can't figure out how to post pics on here since I'm just not great with that kinda stuff but I got a clip of the inside of the Boars Nest and several pics of the outside right down to the red Hoggoco gas pumps out front. The guy has a daisy jeep and a patrol car. The general lee is in the paint shop and he also has a Cadillac and a wrecker in the works too. It's hard to explain in words just how awesome this place looks but it is really cool RogerDuke, Skipper Duke, Hobie Hartkins and 1 other 1 3 Quote
RogerDuke Posted July 29, 2024 Posted July 29, 2024 Good to hear from you. I'm like you....pretty bad with technology. I bet Hoss can find a link to that place and post it if you let us know what town it is near. Skipper Duke 1 Quote
floyd012010 Posted July 31, 2024 Author Posted July 31, 2024 The address is Kingston GA. May be able to Google it and see if anything pops up. It's just off a tiny two lane road. It's oddly placed but still the coolest dukes place I have seen. He is setting up shelves and display cases looks like to show his collection of dukes memorabilia as well. Skipper Duke 1 Quote

floyd012010 Posted 10 hours ago Author Posted 10 hours ago Well I haven't been here in a bit. The business we opened up wound up doing very well but taking up a lot of time as well but it is what it is. Wanted to answer the question that it isn't the one in north Carolina. I live in a small town called Plainville in Georgia, its between Rome and Calhoun. The garage/boars nest im talking about is just outside of Shannon ga towards Kingston Ga. The guy has a General Lee, a 69 F350 cooters tow truck, a daisy jeep and a hazzard patrol car. The garage is awesome and the boars nest is built to the RH side of the garage. Has the correct jukebox and pinball machine as seen from the show. Even has the machine that has the huge bands that Boss Hogg was using to shake the fat away lol. It's really neat how far he has put into it as in detail. He also has a toy section and there is alot of cool stuff there too. Skipper Duke 1 Quote
