General Lee Charger


Jay's Customs

Recommended Posts

This is the Dukes of Hazzard General Lee by MPC. I got it about a year ago and ended up finally starting on it and finishing it. There was lots of flash, meaning lots of sanding. The roll cage really didn't fit, so I ended up not putting it in. I didn't build it to be authentic to the real one though. I built it the way I would want to have it if I could build a real one when I grow up.

But anyway, here it is.

With the light I used, the wires do look like they are kind of pinkish, but believe me, they are red.

Comments and criticisms are welcome. Thanks for looking!

Very nicely done!

BTW, what color did you paint the body?

Nice work Jay I love it. Yeah, what color and what kind of paint  ( who makes it ) because it is a perfect match for the General Lee. Keep up the great work and Thank you for sharing this with us.       Jeff 

Thanks guys! For the body I used this:

P.S. I could have told you what paint I used but it's easier for me to just show you.
