Question where is the classic iconic Smokey car and snow man track I'm a big fan of the classic movie I love this iconic movie I still look at ice Man

It's really sad how things change. Interesting to know that some actors in dukes was part of smokey I had no idea, thanks for sharing
I think it's pretty cool that they were already a part of southern culture 2 years before the Dukes of Hazzard was even made. Im glad you enjoyed the video man!
That was awesome. That was good tv back then
I grew up in Jonesboro. My father helped tow the cars from the Flint jump. I moved and worked for over 30 years as a Law Man in McDonough. Surrounded by the Bandit’s stomping grounds most of my life.
This is incredible! My brother lives in Jonesboro and my sister just moved to McDonough yet only today I found out that big scenes were filmed in both of these towns!!!!!!! Loved this movie sooooo much!
Well done,thank you.
Im glad you enjoyed!!!
It's so hard not to quote every line in this when I watch it as it's been one of my favorite movies since I was a kid. Thanks for this episode
Brilliant video! Been a fan of these films since i was about 10 years old (i`m now 52)
Thanks for posting. I grew up in New England and I remember watching the movie when I was a kid. I moved to Georgia in 1991 and I have been to many of the locations you filmed.
That's awesome man!! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
Same I grew up and still live in Rhode Island but I’m a big Dukes Of Hazzards and the Snow Man fan, I really hope some time I get to go there and some times I wish I lived over there in the south near Georgia.
@@robertmcfarlane7548 It has it’s benefits like not much snow. I was born in Providence.
I went to Forest Park high school… I remember wicks lumber and hickory house very well.
my grandmother graduated from the only school in the county in McDonough Georgia 1941. Go through McDonough almost daily.
The movie has also has a shot of the first Real estate I went to work with it’s a yellow sign called tara properties. After all these years, I’m still in real estate . The building still there even though the real estate office is not there anymore.
I sold Sonny Shroyers house and went deep-sea fishing in Destin Florida with Sonny. Hell of a nice guy. The boat we chartered had Vietnam vet that they had lost his legs… we called him Lieutenant Dan. For those that don’t know Sonny was Bear Bryant in the movie.
The car wash in the background with Jackie Gleeson. with all the flags flying and the background… is also there still there
I go through Jonesboro, Georgia daily.
I feel very connected to that movie. Blessings all.
Awesome video bro! Loved how it was put together! Every scene was on point! 😎🔥
Thank you brother!!!! Im glad you enjoyed it! I really took my time on this one to make sure it was perfect!
@@ChunkeyMonkey40 you’re welcome bro! It was perfect man! Felt like I was right there with y’all the whole time!!
I’m from this area of Georgia. About 15 years ago, I was at the hq location where a close family friend worked. It was a heavy machinery trucking company. They had the forklift that snowman and the bandit used to load the beer. The same one that you see in the movie. The owner bought it from the crew after filming stopped
Thats badass! I wonder what ever happened to the forklift
987th Blue Finger !! Total respect and support for your work, I'm an abroad Smokey fan, so great to could see all these places today, and like you always come back with a piece of stone, wood to have a souvenir from the "real" place...be safe, take care of your General Lee beauty ( lucky you are ! ) have fun Bro and make us dream with your location discovering ! many thanks again for sharing : )
Those two Smokey and the bandit impersonators are the best ive ever seen. Im subbed to their youtube channel.
I think it's pretty cool how you break down all of those locations in the TV shows and movies! It's sad how they've changed, but it's still pretty cool how you carry out those videos.
Thank you so much brother!!! It is indeed sad how they have changed, but also so fascinating to see their evolution with just a little bit of time passing. Plenty more like this all across my channel!
Nice Video, i wish i was there. I love the Movie signs i was a Kid. Greetings from Germany.
I wish things was like they was back then
It’s so sad that Jerry Reed, Burt Reynolds, Jackie Gleason, Mike Henry, and Pat McCormick passed out. But Sally Feld and Paul William are still alive.
You guys did an excellent job
Thanks for sharing.. Even tho I may never get to see it in person
.. You made it possible and ty for that 🙏🏼
Wow after all these years I never realized Ben Jones (Cooter) was in the movie! Pretty cool that 3 "dukes" actors appeared in it
Yes! I thought that was really cool as well!
Great work !

The Mercedes is the car in heart to heart
Ahhh okay! I never heard of that
Yesterday i left comment when i watched a dukes video. was wondering if you had a smokey and the bandit and of course yep you do. im now a subscriber. keep up the great work bro!!!
Thank you so much brother! Welcome to the channel, I got TONS of Dukes content on here haha
ALWAYS GREEEEAT VIDS !!!!
KEEP DEWIN WHAT YOU DEWIN .
- Godspeed
The Old Hickory House y’all went to isn’t a replica. It used to be a chain restaurant around Atlanta and the last remaining location is in Tucker, GA. It’s been there since the early 70’s and it’s freaking delicious.
Would be awesome to see the original Snowman KW visit the locations. And the OG Trans Am. If it is still around.
Great job!! Love that you include the town names. Do you know where they filmed the scene with the teens hanging out by the hamburger stand? Looks like you both had fun doing this…very entertaining and nostalgic as I saw Smokey and the Bandit at the movies as an 8 year old
I do not know, I'm sure you could find it online somewhere. All the locations are pretty well documented
THANKS.
At the 28.40 minutes mark the bld has wicks on it. I believe that was a chain of lumber stores back in the day at least in the south anyway
Thanks for sharing. I hope everyone has a safe and wonderful Thanksgiving. I have a CB radio signed by Burt Reynolds that I got as a birthday gift.
Dang that is badass!!!! I'd love to see a picture of that!!!!
Awesome video!!
Thank you brother!!!!
Looks like Buford messed up his car after coming out from under the roller coaster
Going to be great video 🇺🇲🤘
I hope you enjoyed!!!!
HAAAA thats my dad pete! lmao
Ahahaha no way hell ya!!!
Oh and happy Thanksgiving sir..eat alot and enjoy family and football lol
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!!!
In your collection with that black trans Am with a white interior that little toy car I had two of them the first one the headlight area was all Chrome the second one was white just like the interior I went with my mom and dad to the Smokey and the bandit 1977 movie theater when I was a little kid and I was born 1971 I used to have it was a 1979 diecast toy car that had been it on the side of it was smoking the bandit 2
I hope the same Smokey and the bandit DVD I have the same copy
Chunky monkey I am a huge Dukes of Hazzard fan myself already love your videos dude so awesome and legendary !!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much brother I'm so glad you enjoy them!
Your growing on me like a wart. Love your content.
Haha thanks bud thats good I hope 😂😂😂 thank you for the support brother, that comment cracked me up!

Im so glad you enjoyed! Be sure to go check out some of the other Traveler Episodes! Lots of awesome explorations in that series!
Awesome video man, one of my favorite movies.
Thank you so much for watching brother!!! Glad you enjoyed! 🤘🏽🇺🇸
Fantastic video D!!!!!!!!
This was awesome!!!!
Glad to see u guys out having fun. My dad and I would do this with civil war locations
That'd be cool!
Really interesting! I love the movie!
Its a southern classic!
A slide side note as the Cadillac is leaving the fairgrounds you will see a blond guy give a thumbs up . John Schneider snuck onto the set and did that
I discussed that in the video... you musta been asleep at that part
Badass video
Thank you so much Michael!
Good video, thanks for sharing.
Thank you!!! Im happy you enjoyed!
This was very well done great job chunk.
Thank you so much!!!
This was an awesome video, great editing. I particularly like where you show the parts of the movie where each location was compared to the current setting.
Thank you so much!
The scene from the doblio sandwich was from the Hampton House in McDonougi Georgia I was there
No it wasnt 🤦🏻♂️ it was the OLD HICKORY HOUSE, you can literately see it in the movie.
I saw the mulberry bridge in the late 80's as a teenager, there was more bridge there at the time.
Dude thats awesome!
I love the Netflix show “ Stranger Things “!!!
Yesss it's great!!! I can't wait for the next chapter to come out!!!
@@ChunkeyMonkey40 I love all your videos… especially at the Bo’s Extravaganza!!! I spoke to John Schneider‘s wife twice on the telephone they invited me down to their weekend bash because they heard about this delicious beef jerky that we sell up here in Northeast Pennsylvania that I used to donate to the Eddie Money rock band and they wanted me to bring my product down to their extravaganza I never got to go( to Bo’s Extravaganza) do to other things being involved on that weekend but ; John Schneider and I have something in common : we are both born in April.
Cool video! It would have been neat to go to those locations back in the 90s or 80s when things wouldn't have changed so much. Or even better yet, back in 77 right after the film was made. In 1990 I thought they filmed that stuff in Texarkana so I looked for locations there, unaware that none of it was shot there
Awesome General Lee!
Thank you so much! The movie was extremely low budget for what it really is. Everything was shot within a couple mile radius, and the director Hal Needham really went the extra mile in making the film for just $1million. You should make a trip down to Jonesboro Georgia and go see some of these spots. About 30 minutes north of Jonesboro is Covington. I did another video showcasing the Dukes of Hazzard Filming Locations in Covington Georgia. You should go check that out!
@@ChunkeyMonkey40 Thank you so much for taking the time to share all that. Smokey and the Bandit is a fun movie and got me re-interested in American performance cars when I saw it again as a teen
I should take my 1978 Trans Am there lol
You should!
Dude awesome video thanks for showing us some locations
Thank you bud im glad you enjoyed!!!
S Stone mountain rd @ Phillips rd is where the shot the funeral cortege.
Excelente video amigos gracias por compartir saludos desde chile
Thank you for watching!!! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Fire vid per usual
Sonny Schroyer was the only one I recognized
Hey brother I love your videos, your channel is crazy insane, I love it! Can you please tell me if the highway scenes in Smokey and the Bandit were I 75?
Yes they were! And thank you so much brother! New video dropping this week!
@@ChunkeyMonkey40 I think they were on I-85 too.
The real Mulberry river here in Arkansas would be a lot more difficult to ramp.
Good stuff again. I just sent you email.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🙏🏼❤️
Do you 2 like classic older movies or newer ones.
👍🇦🇺
What happened to the semis that was in all the smokies and the bandit movies
I believe one of them is owned by the AMC studio that produces The Walking Dead. I do know that one of them was on TWD
dude it would be kick ass if you can sign bottom of my koozie before it ships. but all good if you cant bro
I gotchu bro imma be shipping it out tomorrow, ill sign it before packaging it.
Good video! The stranger things stuff was cool as hell! That guy playing Buford in the restaurant, I coulda done a better job than that! Burt was pretty good in it! Good job boys, keep up the good work!
Thank you so much!!!
Did they drove on ga 400 or that was Duke of Hazard??
OMG, John Schneider was an EXTRA, he didn't have a role! The other 2 Dukes guys, yes, they had small roles. But Schneider, no.
Okay? What's your point, he was there you weren't lol
@@ChunkeyMonkey40 but he didn't, as you said, have a role.
Technically, being an extra is a role. Your role is to stand there and look pretty. Basically the same thing Sally Field did in the movie 🤣
Maybe they should call him Tetanus Pete grabbing rusty nails.
I am 10 and even I know what a can antenea
Did these two Sum Beaches not order the Diablo Sandwich? What the hell
Lmfao I would've, but I cant eat spicy foods with my Colitis. I'll be on the toilet for a week 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@ChunkeyMonkey40 Good call No footage is worth burning up the gut.
Yeah haha but hell if I got 6 hours to spare one day and I'm not living out of a pickup truck I would 🤣 idk how far back you have watched in the Traveler series, but last year I spent 28 days living out of the bed of my truck, travelling all around the country. It was a blast, I wanted to travel but with the high gas prices I didn't wanna pay for a hotel room, so I just put a mattress in the truck bed and hit the road haha!
How many of y’all were actually there on scene hiding in the woods watching while buddy Joe hooker, and his jet powered car the Trans Am jumped the river 300 feet at the old bridge. I was. I was there hiding in the woods, skipping school in those woods all the time.
Haha that's awesome!!!!
3:40 giving it a fond farewell
13:24 My Favorite Line of Any Movie! NO SHIT!
As a kid i always though snowmans dog was Roscoes dog? I didnt know about the other cast members of hazard being in bandit though! It could have been the same dog after all 👍
Thank you so much for the facts about the general lee it really helped me make mine in forza horizon five and I went for that Georgia looking design and you can make a general lee that's way better in forza horizon 5 than in gta5 but due to the whole thing about the rebel flag you can't have it on any if your cars or else you will be banned but people have made some rebel flag variants with the same colors and everything but people make the flags to not look like the flag if that makes sense @ChunkeyMonkey40
