The show was more about the car and occasionally the other cars on there. I watch older movies almost nightly from the 50s to 90s just to remember how it was back then.
Apparently your memory is quite faulty because the car in The Dukes of Hazard was a 1970 Charger not a 1969 Charger. There are several differences between the two starting and with the fact that there was no visible line in the center of the hood and the body around the headlights does not come to a peak on the outside edge
@@thewatcher6794even if you are somehow soooo misinformed to actually believe what you just said, GOOGLE is your friend. EVERYBODY who was ever even the slightest fan knows the general was a '69. the '70 had the wraparound front bumper and no grill center piece. dude, just look up some pics before you embarrass yourself further.
@@richardhively3085 being that I was actually there I have no need to research it even though I have watched many docu series about the show and the most important character of the show The General Lee,try actually watching the show and stop looking everywhere else, the hero car was a 1970, pay attention to the scenes where the car is not moving because that is the real general lee
Nice work only you missed/forgot about one critical detail. The General Lee was a racecar and as such racecars (as the General Lee was) have roll cages in them.
@@Restorations4U the horn was genuine, not an effect, in first season when they filmed entirely on location in Georgia. You could get the kit for about 30 bucks to just play Dixie or get one you could program to play anything your musical talent could input notes for, for about 50. The producer did not know and paid some local kid 200 bucks for his 30 dollar horn.
I really enjoyed this video, general Lee is my dream car, brilliant job on this one, as a model builder i can really appreciate the work that went into this project 😊
Did you mix your own paint? When I redid my original 1:25 scale ERTL General Lee, I found some airbrush ready 1975 Corvette Flame Red online (also gave me an excuse to buy an airbrush). What scale is this? How old is it? It looks beautiful!
When i was a kid i loved models ,even after i started working in a body shop at 19 i continued to build until my wife had a horrible accident when i was 23. After that i kinda went nuts and dropped the models. Still i had to work and ive built many muscle cars in my life. I enjoyed the process it was mind soothing and the satisfaction was immeasurable. I enjoyed watching this almost as much as the real thing. Your attention to detail is amazing. Do you build the whole kit with the 3d printer.
Picture CBS on Fridays in the 1970s. 8:00pm The Incredible Hulk 9:00pm Dukes Of Hazzard If A new Dukes Of Hazzard movie is made, feature a new Dodge Challenge, and show the original 1969. Now we're talking pure cinema magic!
Great job restoring it. I thought for sure with all the detailing effort you put into the interior you might have actually wired up the new motor with mini wire harness. That would be cool to see, did a 1969 Super Bee many years ago and even wired the engine with fuel lines, spark plug wires and so forth. I owned the real Bee and my model was a near mirror image of the one i owned. I miss that car :( . But great job, thumbs up 🙂
Did you know that the true color of the General Lee was not the Flame red Corvette color ? Close match but the real color was never a factory choice or color . The true color of the General Lee is TNT Express . Yup it was a paint color used by a shipping company on its delivery vehicles . My Step Grandpas sons job back then was painting General Lee cars for the show .
Настоящие ремни на двигателе, гениальное решение, у меня лишь один вопрос к Мастеру, не думали что если добавить смывку, ваш мотор смотрелся бы еще реалистичнее.
What type of media or material do you use for sand ⌛ blasting diecast models sand, glass 🥂 or a plastic because I have one but don't know which is better for the models 🤔 please 🙏 let me know when you can? Thank you very much..
Love your work, accurate, clean work as it should be, very well done! Question: where can I find the 3d files for the engine? I have a project for engine build. Appreciate your help 🙏🏻

As somebody who was born in '75 & spent their Friday nights watching this show from their highchair because Friday night was pizza night, AND went through many toy cars thst you restored, this vid made me very happy. Fantastic work on your part! Do you have a downdraft paint booth?

I'm extremely happy with your attention to detail. This car is exactly how I remember it while watching the Dukes every week. 😂❤❤😂

God.. I miss this. I miss the show.
Me too
The show still comes on regular TV if you have a converter box or in my area at least but the flag is blurred out
For the Dukes autotrader commercial, instead of trading in their General for a Viper they should've shown them Hellcat swap it.
I agree
Fuckin 440 time
I would've kept the old general lee and the new Dodge viper.
I've always loved the General Lee and you did an awesome job on this.
Thank you kindly!
That was incredible to watch!
Thank you
Wow what a video thanks a lot😊
Most welcome 😊

Thank you for the kind words. I appreciate you taking the time to comment.
@@Restorations4U 👍👍
That is awesome! I feel like you put more work into that than some places put into actual car restorations.
Great restoration work on the '69 Dodge Charger, looks ready for some action in Hazzard County and good to go with this one.
На такого мастера и подписаться не стыдно, сразу видно что человек работает с душой а не ради смайликов и лайков.
Спасибо большое за Ваш комментарий. Вы правы, я люблю их строить.
Hands of a surgeon fantastic patience and eye to detail stunning
Wow, thank you
All that dirt and crud "rust"..... but look at the nice shiney screws holding it together
The Duke boys would be proud
Thank you
That's one way to make the Brush Guard
Thanks
Awesome work! I loved watching that show when I was a kid.
Glad you enjoyed it
Very good work, congratulations friend
Thank you! Cheers!
I love the flag on top
Wanted it to be how I Remembered the show.
Love the video. The lee had a roll cage tho
You are correct. Thank you for watching.
Love the General Lee! Excellent job!
Incredible!!! Looks like it’ll straighten some curves!!
😎😁
And flatten some hills?
Great build. Try using Micro Sol for your decals as they'll look like they were painted on 😊
Very good point, thank you
Very nice classic car nice work. ❤😊
Thank you
Awesome job.
Thank you
Not even Flash would piss on this beauty!
👏👏👏👏

Love the fact that you hellcat swapped a model charger👌
Seemed like in 2024 the Dukes would have needed the HP.
Indeed so👍
Hellcat. Lmfao. You must be a youngster.
That's how some folks refer to the 392. Like how us older people used to hear guys say "a Corvette motor".

Do you build the whole kit with the 3d printer.
Sorry to hear about your wife. No, just the engine was made with the printer. Thank you for watching.
That's so sweet and very awesome to see
Thank you
Another absolutely amazing video!
Thank you
Parts sure come off easy for being a old diecast
Thru the whole video i kept wondering does he have the Balls to put the Rebel flag on the roof. I'm glad to say he does, way to go dude.
Man! Now I have to watch The Dukes of Hazzards!
Nice new toy, too!😀
Where did you get your screw driver set? Love it!

What color did you use for the wood grain?
Just mixed my own color from a few different browns and tans.
What is all the brown stuff on the car when you found it? Obviously not rust as pot metal doesn't rust.
The engine compartment should have been painted body color.that is how mopar did it.
My God that is the best video ever
Thank you for the motivation
Awesome job 👍
