Jim B Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Sad automotive news. Several of the 1969 Dodge Chargers owned by John Schneider (Bo Duke) were crushed by Hurricane Ida when it hit Louisiana. 'The Dukes of Hazzard' star John Schneider's Louisiana property hit by Hurricane Ida — including the General Lee (yahoo.com) Very sad.

Sledsel Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 The crushed car has no glass. The broken windshield is not in it nor is there glass on the car. Someone added the jump car for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sledsel Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Correction, the car in the air is there........ and the other is just a prop car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like that isn't a real Charger or a screen used General Lee, I believe he has one of the handful of Crown Vic cop cars that got chopped up, caged, rebodied with reproduction Charger sheet metal and painted to look like a General Lee, so that may, technically be fixable! 2 hours ago, Daddyfink said: Looks like a new future episode ahead..... Apparently they have already restored a screen used General Lee from the '05 movie, it was the car that was used for the "freeway jump", which had been a record flight for any car, let along a 2nd gen Charger.

deuces wild Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 How many '69 R/T Chargers were destroyed during the series????..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuilderX Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 around 300 I think. This general lee charger is a reskined ford LTD. Not a real charger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He spends more time yapping and quizzing than actually getting anything accomplished. Stopped watching that show after 4 episodes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuilderX Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 (edited) 20190811_164359 (1) stunt.mp4 yes thats what I meant a Crown Vic not a LTD.They use them because they are good stunt cars. and the car can be fitted with the charger skins with some work.

Although this show is Worman's vanity project, his antics are very tiresome. And what's with the animated portions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espo Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 That is why I stopped watching the program years ago. The guy is a walking talking encyclopedia of facts about the MoPar products of old but his antics cancel out all of the great parts of the program for me anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slusher Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 John Schneider always seemed like a nice guy. auctioned 1 General off on Barrett-Jackson for Autism at at least 10 years ago guess and it was signed bey all the stars even the ones that had since past. It was one used. He has had money troubles in the past due to child support not being lowered after the show ended.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the one on the roof of the studio fared the weather in better shape. And I'm also glad that John is able to look at the bright side and not take it all too serious. He's a good guy!
