Frank Elder Posted January 6, 2015 Report Posted January 6, 2015 Looks like Roscoe is in hot pursuit........ 1 Quote
busycoupe Posted January 6, 2015 Report Posted January 6, 2015 It looks like they are on their way to a car show in my neck of the woods. It seems like there is an unwritten rule that you can't have a car show in eastern NC without at least one "General Lee" present. Last May I went to a show at the local community college and there were 2 General Lees, one sheriff Roscoe cruiser, and the actor who played Cooter signing autographs. Dave B. 1 Quote

And in reality they were on the way to their demise being crashed jumping over something. It is a pretty cool site to see them all on a matching orange transport. Quote
BobT-47P15 Posted January 7, 2015 Report Posted January 7, 2015 There were quite a few of those cars used........found this on wikipedia........... Although the estimated number of General Lees used varies from different sources, according to Ben Jones ("Cooter" in the show), as well as builders involved with the show, 320 General Lees were used to film the series. Others claim about 255 were used in the series. Approximately 17 still exist in various states of repair. On average, more than one General Lee was used up per show.

Frank Elder Posted January 7, 2015 Author Report Posted January 7, 2015 All fun aside there was an insurance commercial lately, I think, with the 2 dukes driving the general here and there..........but in this age of PC not in one single scene did they show the rebel flag on the roof. . Disclaimer, I neither approve or disapprove of that symbol and what it does or doesn't stand for. 1 Quote
