Literally my dream car 😍

I love this

Always glad to see your videos. Proud of what you do and represent.

Great video and presentation. Awesome vehicle.

Great video man! I appreciate the shout out you gave me in the video💪. My name is Chan (not Chad😂) but no worries as 90% of the people out there call me that the first time they mention me😂😂😂. Keep up the good work man, and feel free to link my series in the description below your video. Thanks again!

I liked the shorter push bar too. Maybe it's because there's no padding on it, but the roll bar looks thin. I have the Vector SE wheels on my dark red 2001 Jeep Cherokee.

Love your General Lee, the driver side mirror is wrong, if you look at episode 2 of the first season called Daisy's Song, close up photo had a '68 interior in it!!! Remember, they did take '68 Chargers, and turned them into '69's!!! Mopar Nate Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Your GL looks great, beautiful car. I've seen a lot of GL's and tv correct depends on the earlier or later years. You've done a great job making your car as correct as possible. I love seeing GL's owned by people like you who care to make their car as accurate as they possibly can. I love the early year GL's!!! Thanks for the great video!!

my favorite is the season 1 car as well. and i would probably have season 1-3 at least or up until Bo and Luke left, was not the same show when they got back.

I just want to comment on the last part of your video about the paint. I have read books, heard interviews of the Valuzet brothers that supplied the Chargers , met the lead mechanic Tom Sarmento many years ago and the truth as told by the men who built and maintained the cars was that it was many different shades based off the DuPont Dulux paint color orange. The reason it was many shades was due to time. Tom said and Valuzet confirmed that when they were in a time crunch they would thin the paint out so it would dry faster. The cars were different colors and were scuffed and painted so they looked a bit different . My point is whoever says it’s this color is wrong. When they ran out of one brand they used another and mixed it until it was close enough. Some people take things way too serious and lose the fun of the history just to bolster themselves as experts like the guy you mentioned who is a tool imo. He wants to be known as the “man” when it comes to General Lees which is bs. He didn’t build them, he wasn’t part of the show. He was a fan just like the rest of us that found the first GL. He didn’t restore it when he found it. He sold it and made some money on it. I have built several movie and car show replicas that Revell used as the blueprint for the Starsky n Hutch Torino. It doesn’t make me better than any other fan of the shows we grew up on and love. Thanks for sharing your General Lee and enjoy it. All the best👍

Great example of a General Lee! I also have an early production 69 Charger SE that does have the head rests but I have seen over the years early 69s with no headrests. IMO, if you’re happy with your Charger and how it came out , that’s all that matters. Who cares what other people think. IMO doing the paint like the factory did it is the best way to go. I tore mine completely down and it was stripped down to bare metal and painted exactly how Chrysler painted them. I didn’t put the undercoating but painted and powder coated a lot of the pieces underneath for detail and durability. Great job! Enjoy 👍

Like to hear the horn lol

From 01 General Lee owner to another that was Very well said 👍🏻👍🏻 Great video

Looks awsome love the car

They used TNT express

Sweet video man! I would have probably lived in the General Lee and sold my house before I gave up the 426 Hemi😂. Great story! I actually have been working on filming the story of my General Lee as well for the last several months. Hopefully I’ll get that video finished one of these days😂. Keep up the good work man, great General Lee you’ve got!

Super cool storie and super nice replica, i have a Knight Rider replica and i wish someday i can own a General Lee

The correct color is TNT Orange.

Flame Red is a great color. TNT Express is a great color. For TNT Express, that scan took into consideration the gold original color -- so if you want to spray to get that color, you can now just put it over a primer and spray it without adding a gold layer. Flame Red/Orange is such a great color too. It's nice that there are options and neither are incorrect. At this point Flame Red/Orange is so accepted now that there is nothing wrong with it either.

Used to LOVE Dukes of Hazzard. The General of course was the star! Beautiful car. Thanks for posting.

Bring your Lee to Hazzard Hangout in Covington GA. March 21, 22, 2025.. 👍👍

Could you please ad the paint codes from your can? I'd sure appreciate it, thank you

😢v maybe tried to change your leaves brings out maybe you're adjustment is goofing up with your leaf springs what does that 75 Dodge charger if it is what may be need the head of the Year either way you look at it to get the leaf springs

That's one of my dream cars man

Your wrong, it was a bunch of different colors, mixed into the orange color. It was a mix of colors, made by Warner Brothers.They came up with there own colors. Check with John Snyder, he knows

nice replica general but wheres her cb radio ...love the shape of these old chargers more than the modern charger older car has more style... mind i am same with our cars in the uk cars from the 60s and 70s better than the modern jelly mould junk...

I wouldn't trust the scans, because #1. these cars sat for 7 years between 1984-1991, and California sun is notorious for damaging skin, paint, etc. #2. They quickly painted over the car's original paint. and out of the survivors, one was Gold, one was Burgundy, another was Turquoise. #3. Everyone claims to be a paint expert. it's been claimed by multiple names. #4 ties to #1, but various waxes, polishes and environmental factors can cause a faulty result. (at one point my wife and I had an 06' Chevy HHR and 07' Chevy Trailblazer, were painted by the factory in Imperial Blue Metallic, and my Trailblazer looked lighter in color)

I know what color the General Lee is. And I've always known what color it is from the first time I saw the show. It's orange.

Wyoming cowboys 🤠 🏈🤘👍💪👌🤜👊🤛🏁

The 68/69/70s chargers they getting very scary that's the last time every day/ look at a dude the 300 and some in just the TV show nice looking charger tailpipes to go out back though

I lived in Evanston as a kid, graduated high school in green river and now we live in rocksprings great video, really like to see your general, great video

so uhhh wtf uhhh gen lee dodge wtf colour wfc, daisy love shorts, get sone air in some stunts, i mean wtf, loved the show , i was a kid, i owned some great cars and still do in Australia, all this tv stuff is grand. rather see daisies tits right, lol

Travis bell how is he telling this

Did a lot of business with Jim back in the day. I remember some of those cars

I've always wanted a general Lee. Doubt I'll ever have that kind of money. But, as far as color is concerned, I think I would get some scrap steel and cut it into maybe for or five squares.... then spend a little time and a little extra work and money... and spray out those four or five colors and choose the color that works for ME! No sense in arguing about it... in the end, it's your car. Choose the orange that you like best!!

Thanks for the kind words brother 😎🤙. I’m excited to see some more new content!

keep the stars-n-bars flyin'!

Does that assembly come as one piece ? And Where did you get the parts ?

Hello mate, love these cars. Currently building an 84 series3 jag, but I'm painting it jagB.R.G, painting a George's flag on the roof. It's name will be the fairfax. He was oliver cromwells general in our civil war. It'll be a homage to the Dukes of hazzard. Keep up the good work 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

The first general was originally gold with orange sprayed over it

At the reveal of Lee 1 in the town square of Covington,as John and Travis passed the rear of my buddy's Flame Red General I was standing next to,John stopped and yelled at me "Nice car!".

You want to sell it?

As being a lifelong painter myself most of everything he's saying is true. Solid colors are easier to match than metallic colors. Different colored primer underneath makes a difference plus also how many coats of paint that you put on it also makes a big difference. You can have some leftover paint for a car and then use that same paint out of the same can to respray one of the panels and it might not match perfectly. Especially when metallics are involved. Then you have to run the exact same air pressure spray pattern but it is a complicated science

The color is tnt orange

Yeee!

Hermoso!❤

Lmfao nope it was orange the first car was lee 1

Everything on a Dodge is a freaking brain puzzle. I hate working on my Mopar more than any vehicle I have ever owned. Nothing is easy on a Mopar. Engineering cluster fk. .

Thanks for your video. Everything you said makes total sense. I build 1/25 scale model General Lees and I use to stress about the orange color. My florescent red Ghost of General Lees that glow under a blacklight looks good.

The roof on all those cars were vinyl so they had Bondo and primer work so the top would be different on every car
