Them Duke Boys
The car to end all cars is officially available on eBay. It’s not just a General Lee. It’s THE General Lee. Or, at least, one of the very few REAL General Lees. It’s really a shame I don’t have the $2 million + to splurge on it. Seriously, there are replicas at the Auburn Collector Car Auction on a fairly regular basis and each one takes my breath away. Even a non-General Lee Charger of the era quickens my pulse. Paint it orange, throw up the “01”, play some
I’ll tell you what really disappoints me with the listing…the complete lack of a VIN. I’m sure it’s probably old enough that it doesn’t have the full 17 digit VIN (though I could be wrong on that) but I’d love to run a CarFax report on it. I image is would read something like this:
12/14/1979: Vehicle Totaled - jumped ravine
1/4/1980: Vehicle Totaled – Jumped semi carrying Boss Hogg’s slot machines.
1/11/1980: Vehicle Totaled - jumped river
1/25/1980: Vehicle serviced at Cooter’s Garage. Later totaled.
2/8/1980: Vehicle totaled damaged while doing that “up on two wheels” trick in daring rescue of guest star Loretta Lynn.
2/15/1980: Vehicle Stolen, used in bank heist by look-alike owners. Totaled while jumping barn.
2/22/1980: Vehicle totaled during skirmish with Mean Green Machine. Damaged by stray dynamite arrow
2/29/1980: Vehicle reportedly used in theft of orphanage money. Later determined to be a replica owned by Boss Hogg in attempt to frame those Duke Boys. Vehicle totaled while jumping Hazzard construction.
