restored general lee from the 2005 dukes of hazzard movie with 3d resin printed bo and luke figures
i started with the 1997 issue of the amt/ertl general lee kit which had the incorrect hood and charger 500 body and corrected it by kitbashing the body with a correct mpc 69 charger rt body which had a broken front half of the body and then  i sanded down the leading edge of the hood to make it more correct                                                                       
i used a revell 68-70 charger back bumper and resin printed the grille parts and front bumper from andrey bezrodny's 69 charger kit files
i 3d resin printed the movie style ram bar and movie style cb antenna base and i also 3d resin printed the vector rims and cb radio transmitter
i sanded off the goodyear polyglass raised lettering from the tires and applied bf goodrich radial ta decals to them and i kitbashed the roll bar
the air cleaner and steering wheel and shifter came from my parts boxes
the antenna i made from a flat head pin and i sanded the tip down
i made the 2005 movie bo and luke figures using a photo of them i put into a image to 3d model generator
i painted the body rust-oleum 2x gloss real orange
i brush painted the interior apple barrel matte khaki

Très belle réalisation, j’ai fait la même, mais j’ai oublié de faire l’antenne de cibi , et je n’ai pas vos belles figurines, j’ai essayer de faire daisy en détournant une figurines existantes et en la modifiant.

Very cool & nicely built!  I've always liked those Vector style wheels on those era Dodge cars, awesome looking!

 

thank you

Great job on recreating the 2005 version, I believe you have every version of the General Lee and some what if versions too. Well done Michelle.

i still have a few more to do the 2007 tv movie  the beginning restored general lee  which was pretty much the same as this 2005 restored version except it had a 440 magnum under the hood and the 1997 reunion tv movie version with body color tail light panel 
and 2000 hazzard in hollywood tv movie  version which had  matching front and back license plates and the interior had bucket seats and a column shifter over a floor mounted shifter   and the  season 1 episode 5 high octane version which had a white interior no ram bar and one head light open as well as unpadded metal bars welded floor to roof on either side of car behind both seats with no center cross bar connecting them 
i also plan to make the black 69 charger that the duke boys would later buy and turn into the general lee from the season 7 episode happy birthday general lee 
i may do another general lee used quite a bit throughout the show which had a dark brown 68 charger interior since it was a converted 68 and was the early seasons primary hero car they would allow the actors to drive into and and out of scene in and after the either filmed them getting into or out of it 

i also have one more modern  charger general lee i will be making
