Now that's nice!mustang1989 wrote:Yeah I'm all over that one too. That's another car that I haven't built yet that would truly look good in stock form. I've always been partial to the black T/A but the blue one's with the contrasting blue flamed chicken on the hood looked pretty good too.
and it is available in kit form:

Re: General Lee/ Dukes of Hazzard GB Feeler
Nice T/A kit!
Why not rename the GB to Hollywood Bandits and Rebels GB. That way it can be anything related to Dukes of Hazzard, Smokey & the Bandit, Cannonball Run, Bullit, James Bond, or even a “what if” General Lee car, etc....
There quite a few movies and television shows with iconic cars on both sides of the law. Plus it will neutralize the political aspect in this Group Build. Something to think about, Joe.
I think I can pick up one particular car kit to do for this GB - if I can find it.

I was seeing Sherman’s, 109s, Star Wars stuff...all done up in General Lee colors. But, that is me.

This is a good idea Tom. It'll draw more of a crowd and give plenty of different subjects to choose from.

According to HL's website, they have the Trans Am from "Smokey and the Bandit" in the store.
