August 17, 200917 yr Author Took my decklid to Cooters in Tenn last week while on vacation.....yes I took my decklid on vacation LOL Sonny was there so I was able to add another signature to my General !!!! ps thats my son in the go-cart behind me!!!!!!
August 17, 200917 yr Author oh got him to sing my visor & air cleaner also!Great guy always a pleasure to see Sonny!
August 17, 200917 yr TomBo,Great pics as always, thank you for sharing them with everybody here. Sonny is a class act. It's always worth the trip to see him.You've put a lot of hard work into your General and the pride you've taken in the project shows in every photo you've posted.But ya know what, seeing your little guy in there in the General Lee go-cart, while you haul in your deck lid for an autograph, might be the best photo you've posted yet. It says it all. In fact, I'm wondering if you'd give us permission to post that photo on the homepage of HazzardNet in a couple of weeks. It would fit perfectly with a write-up I'm working on.Brian HazzardNet Administrator
August 17, 200917 yr Awesome TomBo, Us folks on the HazzardNet have watched that General Lee of yours grow up from a baby (well, make that a junker) so it's nice to see updated pictures of it!!....well, at least a part of it. Enos is such a southern gentleman!!

August 22, 200917 yr Author thank you thank you thank youBy The Way I have this coming up next weekend (was postponed due 2 rain)I saw the show was going to be a benefit & that there was gonna be a Batmoibile & Green Hornet car so I called the guy runnin it & mentioned I had a General Lee & knew a guy close with a Herbie & another guy with a Starsky & Hutch car & would it be ok to come to the event. The guy said sure, since then its been postponed til 8/29/09 due 2 rain.I have also been in contact with a Christine car & a K.I.T.T. Car & they are both commited & I am searching for a Smokey & the Bandit TA & a Delorean to see if they can come.. I think it would be pretty cool!

September 19, 200916 yr I am so impressed with the interior detail and all the work you put in to every detail Of the General Lee, also you must have been in high heaven, getting signatures, from Daisy(Cathrine), Enos(sony), Bo(John) and Rosco(james) on various part of you General Lee, must have been amazing.You done an excellent job on your General Lee, and in spite of all the work I seen you do, I still want to do the same, your work is amazing 100%

Thanks so much for that. It's great to see people lookin at my pictures & then to have someone like yourself make such an awesome comment, well it floors me. I REALLY love owning this car. Gettin the autographs from the cast & having Byron drive the car not to mention taking it to shows & parades....it's all so so so much fun. Honestly MORE than I ever anticipated. People tell me at shows "Beautiful car, Love it, or man I always wanted one". I have a fewl responses I usually say, Thanks so much, It's a fun car! Then I also say from time to time, it's so much fun to take it out I feel like I should have to pay someone.

September 27, 200916 yr Author ended up at a local event so didnt go down to the racepark...oh well. maybe next time. We did win at the event we attended though so that was cool...LOL
September 27, 200916 yr I gotta tell ya TomBo, you're a braver man than me. If I owned a General Lee I'd never let Rosco get anywhere near it. You're lucky he didn't confiscate it and take it to the Hazzard County impound yard. You must have caught him in a good mood or something!!
September 27, 200916 yr ended up at a local event so didnt go down to the racepark...oh well. maybe next time. We did win at the event we attended though so that was cool...LOLOne out of two ain't half bad Tombo, as you say, maybe next time.
