  2. this is a mpc general lee snap kit i did replace some parts with ones i 3d resin printed like the season 1 front ram bar and the roll bar behind the front seats and the rims i also modified to front passenger seat by lowering it via cutting away most of the bottom half of the seat and removed the seat cover details since the car did not have a actual front passanger seat but something made to look like on which was why tom wopat aka luke duke sat so low i added headrests from my parts boxes i painted the steering wheel black as it was black in the episode i painted the body rust oleum 2x gloss real orange the interior i left the color the parts were molded in same with the chassis i used silver sharpie to do the trim around the windows and tail light trim as well as the exhaust tips and door handles and some of the interior details and the rims i painted the roll bar and the steering wheel and rims and cb antenna base and front ram bar with rust oleum 2x flat black primer i have the intro to the first episode of the dukes of hazzard playing in this video The general Lee aka Lee 1.mp4
