May 21, 201115 yr GENWAL WEE!! Khee! I love it. Looking forward to watching this General come to life!
May 21, 201115 yr My middle grandson is two and he hasn't advanced to saying Genwal Wee. He does call everything that's orange "Duke Car" because he thinks it's the name of a color.
May 27, 201115 yr Author Well I bought a original RS teardrop antenna off Ebay. I had to redo the wire going into the antenna (from opening and shutting trunk) These are very hard to find and I was lucky enough to get this one! I also bought a NICE Cobra 78x CB off Ebay tonight, So I have all my RARE pieces! all the other stuff like the push bar I can get later!

Hopefully this winter I can get down to business and get on it 100%!!!!!

August 10, 201115 yr Author Carlos, Yeah they are both the "RS" Radio shack teardrop anteannas that attach to the decklid. the second one I picked up is in alot better shape than the first, I think I have about $400.00 in both Antenna's!!! Way too pricey but I want a AUTHENTIC General Lee!!

January 4, 201214 yr Congrats Greenmonsta. I'M SO JEALOUS! I have plans to own my very own General Lee someday although I don't know when or how. I will dream of and work towards owning a General for the rest of my life.....I sure hope it happens!
January 4, 201214 yr Congratulations, greenmonsta.I liked to see more photos of your car General Lee.
January 31, 201214 yr Author I have brand new AMD fenders, quarters, outer wheel houses, splash shields, trunk drop offs, front floor pan patches, tail panel, coming should be here next week (big $$$$$$) along with all the other new AMD sheetmetal I have. Hopefully I can get all the sheetmetal on the car within the next month that way I can get the car back on the rotiserre and line the underside with truck bed liner and then start with the final body work and prep, then spray some PPG Corvette flame red base/clear!!!
January 31, 201214 yr Wow, that looks and sounds like a lot of work! But it's going to be well worth it. Are you planning to show off your General at Hazzard Homecoming or any car shows this summer?
February 1, 201214 yr Author I won't have the car done for another year at least. I have all the General Lee specific parts already. I have a Tom Sarmento made rollbar with all the stuntmens signatures, and I have to get my pushbar made (have the template I bought from Jon Holland) the car will be blasted and then I can spray the truck bed liner on the bottom of the car, I still have to build the 440 (I have all the machine work done) lots of more $$$$ to be spent! everything that could have been taken apart or painted will be, It will be a very "correct" General Lee as I never intend to sell the car! waited far to long!!
February 1, 201214 yr Author Video of my original vintage late 70's Jubilaire horn set with the pre-1980 Dixie disc (one used in show) I made this disc from a picture I have a original 1980-later Dixie disc as well. http://youtu.be/k1WQW5vMIpA
