WB General Lee Posted November 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2010 Thanks for the kind words Brian. I understand there are 17 TV cars out there under contract. There are a fewer movie cars out there maybe half that amount. I was lucky to have a chance to own a WB car because really it was being in the right place at the right time and being that I already had a history of owning movie cars. You are right I think most people who own them are not so much into the money, they love the cars. Its a triple wammy for me. I am a Mopar guy, a movie car guy and a Charger lover.i was at the Woodward Cruise and talked to two other General Lee guys. We all had lots of fun discussing the cars together.

Brian Coltrane Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 WB General Lee, you're welcome. I always dig hearing how people obtained an "official" General Lee or completed restoration of a replica General Lee. It's a shared passion for the cars that keeps them on the road and keeps them coming to shows. Tim, nice pic! Looks like ya'll took over Covington there! And to think people used to worry about outlaw biker gangs. I know a few towns up north that would either welcome a herd like this with open arms (and parking spaces), and then there's others that would probably block the road with the advice to keep on truckin'. Probably be fun to go surround the local Tasteless Freeze with about a dozen of these cars and see how many times you can hit the Dixie horn.

NOGL Posted November 26, 2010 Report Share Posted November 26, 2010 They have duke's get to gather's all the time. It looks like WB's pic is of Warner Bros sceen used General lee's Boss Hogg say's "Never trust a Duke" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerDuke Posted November 26, 2010 Report Share Posted November 26, 2010 Great picture Tim!Imagine Rosco's reaction if he had that many General Lees to chase. It would drive him crazy.After all, three Generals on "Dukes Meet Cale Yarborough" was more than the Hazzard law could handle.What am I saying? Rosco can't even catch one.....well, maybe on a really good day. Skipper Duke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WB General Lee Posted November 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2010 I have never been to a Dukesfeast myself although I may go very soon.There is something about a car that was prepared by WB. Each car is built up different for use in different scenes. For instance, my car had air tanks in the trunk so when they were on gravel roads, rocks would kick up higher. I am excited, my recent General Lee is going to be delivered to me tomorrow. I will post some pics. Heres my car along with others on set. After this my car was gone throught by Warner Brothers and fender is fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Coltrane Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 Little bit scuffed up there, but not bad at all ! Interesting factoid too on the air tanks. Looking forward to more photos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WB General Lee Posted December 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 Its here! I got the General Lee yesterday. It looks better than I thought. I had to put door locks on it and a front molding and rubbed the car and its done. I am going to have a mechanic go through it because I want to drive the heck out of it:D I drove it and the steering was a little swirly but it is cool. It has a roll cage that is serious. Here are a few pictures as it was snowing a little yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WB General Lee Posted December 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 Well its been real cold here:( I finally had a chance to pull the General out for a few pictures. I was going to drive it around but now we have snow. Before I really play with it I am going to have everything checked out. It has lots of metal welded underneath the car for the jumps I am sure. The car has the original tag from the builders of the Generals. Here are a few shots of the car.P.S. you can see the graffiti still on the taillights from the movie scene.
