this is a replica of a damaged general lee used in the season 1 episode high octane
it had a white interior no ram bar and no roll bar it did have these metal poles welded to the inside of the roof on either side of the interior the rear right fender was crushed in and the grille splitter was dented in and only one set of headlights was open
i used a mpc coca cola 69 charger snap kit the side mirror and head lights and non tinted glass and interior roof light came from my parts boxes
i 3d resin printed the vector rims and the decals are aftermarket waterslide decals
i used a dremal with sanding drum to replicate the damage to the grille splitter and and rear right fender
i made the metal poles using round toothpicks colored using a silver sharpie
i painted the body rust-oleum 2x gloss real orange
i painted the rims rust-oleum 2x flat black primer and used a silver sharpie to detail them
i brush painted the cb antenna base and taillight panel and steering wheel ring and behind the headlights apple barrel matte jet black acrylic paint

Nice General  Michelle',  l don’t remember the General ever having White interior…

it did in that one episode  as it was the last of the first season episodes filmed in georgia as starting in episode 6 filming moved to the wb back lot  for the hazzard square set and other locations  around the la area like lake sherwood  and and golden oak's ranch and valencia oaks movie ranch and the paramount ranch and thousand oaks 
they kept bouncing around locations cause they were thrown off some of those properties cause they keep destroying them with car chases and car stunts and other productions used those same locations 
and though most of season 5 the main hero general lee  had a dark shiny brown interior which was either leather or vinyl 
the rest of the time it had a matte tan/khaki/sand colored interior
