Title: Daisy Duke
Post by: BigSi on July 05, 2007, 20:45:34
To wet outside to play, so decided to spend a few hours surfing the net. Did you know that they made over 300 General Lee’s (Dodge Charger's) for the ‘Dukes of Hazzard’ TV show, and only 20 of the original cars survived! One of the original cars (owned by actor John Schneider, who played Bo Duke), nearly sold on ebay for $9,900,500, but unfortunately turned out to be a hoax bid!

I’ve always wanted an A-Team van. But then again, I’ve always fancied Colt’s GMC pick-up truck from the ‘Fall Guy’!

They destroyed about 375 Chargers!, which were a mixture of 68's, 69's & 70's
The 'General's a 69, so the other years were cosmetically altered.

There's only 1 genuine Warner Brothers 'General' in the UK, it resides in Peter Nelsons 'The Cars Of The Stars' museum up in Keswick (& it's one of the Magnum equipped chase sequence car)

'TCOTS' museum also has a genuine 'A-Team' van, 3 of the Batmobiles,  the full-size 'FAB 1' (which is huge!!), 'Mad Max' Police Interceptor & lots of 007 vehicles

It's well worth a visit if you happen to find yourself up in that part of England

I just about remember it. But found this on the net!

Apparently the helicopter was painted black and then outlined with a highly reflective tape. When illuminated from another helicopter, the Automan helicopter appeared to be cursor generated.

Seem to recall The Sweeneys Granada was actually a Consul but modified and adapted
