Patrol Cars

Hazzard Patrol Cars

Hazzard County started out with a variety of makes and models of patrol car, especially in the Georgia episodes, and it's often possible to spot the cars changing mid-chase.

In One Armed Bandits, the first patrol car to appear was a 1970 Dodge Polara. The other patrol car used in this episode was a 1975 Dodge Monaco.

For Mary Kaye's Baby, the patrol car was a 1975 Plymouth Gran Fury, which was quickly replaced by a 1973 Plymouth Fury I for High Octane.

The first patrol car in the California episodes was a 1974 Plymouth Satellite in Swamp Molly. Swamp Molly also marked the first appearance of the more familiar Plymouth Fury patrol car, although it was the earlier 1975/76 model with single, round headlights.

For Deputy Dukes, and the rest of the first season, the patrol cars were switched to 1974 AMC Matadors. It wasn't until the second season that 1977/78 Plymouth Furys and Dodge Monacos with the dual, rectangular headlights became the norm for the show. Although this greatly helped continuity, it didn't stop other patrol cars, normally AMC Matadors, randomly appearing in chases in later seasons.

For comic effect, The Great Hazzard Hijack featured a patrol car with a camouflage paint job, while still retaining its light bar and badges. Another comic addition came in 10 Million Dollar Sheriff, when Rosco decided to trade his regular patrol car for a Rolls Royce.

The Reunion TV movie continued with the 1977/78 Dodge Monacos, although there were small changes in their appearance such as different badges and license plates.
