One off the most beautyfull cars, i've ever seen on tv....
My favourite car of all time. Greetings from England 🏴
My dream car I need one before I die that's all I want! I get the shivers when I see this car I love it so much!
@ricky carroll let me join your dream too
Who's the girl she's cute?
like every other kid back then had to be home friday night at 8pm to watch the dukes of hazzard. 49 years old and still feel like a kid every time i see this car.
I’m 33 years old and the general lee it’s still my dream car to build and I have every season of Dukes of Hazzard all seven
If I ever hit the lottery........one of the first cars in my collection!!
Sweet... Glad you are a Winner
My dream car ever since watching them old Duke boys on tv as a kid. I'd love to own one with the rebel flag and all!
Very nice & so glad it's still got the stars & bars on top 🖒 . Hopefully all the nonsense over the Rebel Flag is done with & one day The Dukes of Hazzard will be back on T.V..
Travis Harper not as long as Warner Bros owns it.
Actually the stars and bars was the first national confederate flag, that’s the confederate battle flag, with a few other names such as the flag of Dixie, southern cross, etc.
So many cool questions to ask and the girl didn’t have a clue.
This car is so excuse my French bad ass. I loved watching it being drove by Bo Duke, it jumped over anything.
Love car shows.
The biggest movie star in the world !
Bubba Watson owns Lee #1, the car that jumped over Roscoe at the end of the opening credits. Its was wrecked obviously after the jump, and re-used in the episode Repo Men with a blue paintjob and number 77 on the doors. This original could be the one where Luke, Tom Wopat cut his arm from the side antenna, when he did the first hood slide in the episode, "Daisy's Song".
Wow my dream best car ever,👍
I love The Dukes of Hazzard
same here - thanks for commenting - cool stuff to follow
I’m ready for the show to come back on the air again I miss it was my favorite show
It's on forces TV at the moment on Saturday and Sunday at 10 pm channel 181 on satalite
Won't be back on tv for some reason the stupid people who says that the Confederate flag is racist
Just how many originals Dukes of hazard cars do they have ,,,,I'm gone say there's one at every car show iv been to,,
General lee is my favourite car 👍
Lovely
Ese auto era mi adoración cuando era Niño tenia 6 años y mirada la serie recuerdo que le decía a mi madre préndame la televisión van a dar el 01 así yo le llamaba en mi niñez al auto que recuerdos tan gratos me causa mucha emoción verlo ya que aquella serie fue parte de mi niñez
Great museum by the looks of it, but that General isn't the only survivor from the first series, Buba Watson owns Lee 01 the very first General which was restored some years ago to ride on the road again. Unless this guy means totally intact survivor not requiring restoration. But General Lee 001 is out there.
Thanks for your comment. I have tremendous great videos to be posted. Share your favorite video on Social media if you could.
He said "original".
Beautiful car
The 1st 5 episodes of the Dukes of hazzard in Georgia were the pilot episodes and they were filmed in the fall of 1978.
It’s the back to the future DeLorean is the three most famous Movie car ever
LEE 1 was also recovered and rebuilt years ago.
Thats actually pretty awesome that the ricer from fast and furious is there with all those cars.
That was cool they had the General Lee - as well as the Delorean from BTTF, and the Flintstones' Rockmobile. I admit I was hoping they had the Mach 5 from "Speed Racer" and the Mystery Machine from "Scooby Doo". That would've been epic!
1) That is a California General Lee. If it was a Georgia General Lee, it would've had the Rebel Flag and Checkered Flag decal below the rear window.
2) The radio antenna was broken off in Season 1 Episode 2: Daisy's Song
3) The Georgia Cars had a roll cage and no rear seat, early California cars had brown roll bars, and late California had the black roll bar.
4) The orange is too bright and glossy. The TV General Lee had an orange that was more on the red side. The TV General Lee never had that much gloss to it.
Thanks for commenting - looks like you know your stuff. This was the first season car though, may have been different...as they make changes as show progressed. Allot of cool stuff to be posted
USClassicMuscleCars Steven do you realize halfway through season one they moved to California?
This is a real 100% general lee specifically LEE 2
The color is supposed to be “hugger orange”, which is a deeper, darker, more red in tone orange. Also, the original “Lee 1” is owned by PGA Superstar Bubba Watson, so this one may have “survived” but it’s not the only surviving General Lee.
You do realize almost all of the General Lees were destroyed in the process of filming right? This one was probably rebuilt
That guy needs to be sent to the closest Dukes of Hazzard re-education center.
I actually found one not too long ago on the studio in the Creek they have really done 100% it was one of the very first car ever used as a jumper and by the way that’s not orange as Corvette read I know it’s weird but that’s what the color is
You say "read", I say orange. 😂😂😂😂😂
If you watch the first season, minor point, they also have a small rebel flag painted on rear valance panel.
Crossed flags stars and bars and a checkered flag...they were on the car in the early episodes
I'm happy to see one of the originals. If I'm not mistaken, if you look at 1:59, it looks like the double flag is missing from behind the antenna and also the chrome piece from where the leather top met the paint ( I forget what that piece is called) . One of My favorite cars if you couldn't tell by my profile pic :)
John Schneider says not all of them had those. The chrome trim formed the line for the vinyl top which they all had originally.
Funny how everyone says they own one of the cars from the show...
Holy shit! Is that one real? I didn’t know any of them survived!
E-Series yes some of them survived, but not many
Around 17 is the number of survivors
I am not sure how 'readily' available a 68-70 Charger is to build your own General Lee. A lot of those cars were destroyed during the show and the prices on even overly abused Chargers are quite steep. So not an easy investment for people like it would have been back in the 80's.
Hey Blair, thanks for commenting on Dodge Charger
I love general Lee
🇺🇸 ✌️ 👍👍👍
mitico😄 generale Lee 01😘😘😘😘😘😘😎😶❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
They'd use (& wreck) about 4 cars every episode. That's a crying shame!
There are 89,199 Dodge Chargers built for 1969. They only used roughly 326 cars....some of which were the 68 model with replaced grills and tail light assemblies. Its not that bad when you look at those numbers.
john lonczynski I would go back in time and give them made in China unreliable parts cars nowadays and get them boys reliable cars from that time
Mi carro favorito Dodge Charger generalee 01 69
All the people that are butthurt about this video amuse me.
Why would anyone hate the car?
Lee1 and lee2 died in Georgia..lee1 got resurrected from the junkyard...lee3 went to California and was totalled...so if is a Georgia lee it would be 4 5 or 6.which I doubt.
He DID NOT say it was the first General Lee!
As a Afro Latino,,,, I grew up watching this show,, I even had the toy channel leave when I was 5 years old.... The Confederate flag doesn't bother me at all,,, I love this car
I have a friend of mine that has one of the first five general lees it was in the city square during the one armed bandit episode so this is not the only Georgia car
anthony dewitt This was the main one, they had multiple stunt doubles
@@colesounds1367 and this is one of the stunt doubles.oringal one was bought and not long sold by John Schneider
My dad just bought a general lee car
What size motor in it? Thanks for commenting
@@USclassicmusclecars 383
The season one General Lee had a race flag and a confederate flag by the cb antenna
No the flag was on the Roof and the race flag was on the back window
@@kingnissan9942 no it also had a small confederate flag with the race flag on the back.
If this is the Shisler "General" it was never actually screen used on TV. Yes it belonged to WB back in GA and Don Shisler was the transportation director for Dukes.From my understanding he built this car for his son or some relative back then but it wasn't used on screen. Technically yes it is a GA surviving car built by a crew member for his own personal use not for use on the show.
I heard the car was built by H&H body shop who worked on the cars when they were in GA. to be used on the show. Shisler saw it , wanted it , took it then told WB it was wrecked so he could work out a deal to buy it.
@@johnkramer7161 the fact remains it never made it on screen and the museum is leading you to believe it was used on the TV show.
@@joeshmoe9720 If it is the Shishler car.
@@johnkramer7161 I'm like 99% sure it is.
@@joeshmoe9720 I know at one time Volo did own the Shishler car but I think they sold it. Whether that happened before or after this vid was shot idk.
Très bon documentaire sur la général lee Michel de France Bourgogne Nièvre 58
Hope they keep it, don’t like the Confederate Flag don’t look at it!
Small changes here and there could have happened over the years with change of ownership, and a gloss top coat is easily added to protect the paint. Warner bros would not spend too much time/money making them look too nice because more often than not the car would not survive filming, and in 1978/79 the chargers where abundant and cheap
Session?
of the bask window
It is not a screen used General Lee
Cody Roy yes it is
Isn't it Bo's General Lee? Not General Lee on the roof of the car?
I thought the General Lee back in 79 was actually a fire Corvette red considering it look orange on the old televisions just saying
poster is different front bumper guard larger, passenger side mirror, white letter tires. cool vid thumbs up
Jason Voorhees the front bumper did change over time it went to a more narrow push bar once the series took off. If that’s what you mean
Please change the poster in the background. No General Lee ever used white lettered tires.
Good observation.
Good observation
All of the 2005 movie GL's did.
He explains about the whole car and dhe says is it the original😂
It's not the original
@@chiefbangahoe it is its from the first season it was in both the georgia episodes and the california episodes
@@leonolanofficial4581 no it's not. The original had 2 flags crossed on the back below the window on the body. This isn't even the original paint job. This car is a hemi orange. The original was not. If I'm not mistaken, the orginal had a passenger mirror only.
@@chiefbangahoe there was multiple General Lee's in the first couple of episodes of season 1 so to say this isn't one of them without proof is incorrect. Plus you don't even know what side the mirror was on so that shoots down your credibility
@@smackdn775 Jesus. Do you have a fart in your brain?
We'll let's see all the cars had no front antenna so there for maybe not and the first 5 episodes the cars where number with a badge on the driver side by the vin number .
Thanks for the observation. share your favorite video on Facebook if you could
Only reason they got rid of it was because Tom sliced his hand open during a hood slide. Some of the first few episodes had the front antenna.
I will remember my 69 CHARGER forever.
unless the original left the dupont registry...
Actually you don’t have a big push bar so this is one of the earlier ones but I’d like to see the back end of his cousin happy birthday generally it was orange for only one second when they got moonshine out of the back of the general lee it was orange on the clothes that it was black and it’s always been back
That is not the original car. Not the same roll cage. Missing small flags in front of CB antenna
He never said it was the original (Lee 1). He said it was one of the original Georgia cars.
All original cars had the crossed flags in front of the cb antenna except some of the jump cars
@@buddyhawkins9883 Only 3-4 had the flags
@@buddyhawkins9883 You just canceled your own comment.
@@johnkramer7161 Now I know there are two people listening.
ok first thats not the car in poster at the top. That Car in poster at the top ended up-in a junk Yard and was rescued. Then Was rebuilt and solid to Bubba the Golfer. It is the Car you see In the opening Title Jumping Roscoes Patrol Car. When it Landed it was Not useable. So they Painted blue used Soap Stone to Scratch it up. To look Like a stock car In episode 4 And was Trailed in the Episode By the General Lee. Its the one The Golfer Has now. Its Also know As Lee#1 the Car you have in the Museum Is not Lee 1.
Bubba was thinking of painting over the stars and bars on the roof, and ruin it....he should sell it to someone that would keep it as is!.... just sayin
Lee1 is the original car and Bubba Watson owns it.
This is LEE4, the only car that was used in the Georgia episodes and survived enough to be used for early California episodes.
Hate to break it to you, but that's not the original General Lee
So this is not Lee 1?
No it's not. Lee 1 is still owned by pro golfer Bubba Watson as far as I know and is a Georgia Lee. This one is still from season 1 from what I can tell, but it's a California car.
ALL of the general lees used ,had a number in the lower left hand corner at the bottom. for which car it was. rather 04 the fourth one or 05 the fifth one used! they all had this . this car doesn't have that! Fake who knows
Tail light panel should not be black and no white letter tires.
David Kuhn according to john Schneider’s video, the trail panel should be satin or flat black
All GL's had a black taillight panel.. And the 2005 movie cars had white letter tires.
This car is real Tom sarmento and many other Warner brothers officials proven that it was 100% real, people who say it isn’t are rather idiotic.
Why the f@#k did they put a brush gaurd on it?
Team General Lee
Season not session.
That’s a lie cause none of the general lees where straight shift they was all automatic
They used alot of 1968 charger's and altered them to look like a 69 charger's as so many were destroyed
I think the James bond car Aston Martin is most famous tv car then you get someone bit younger and say back to future car is most famous. To many cars out there each with its own history
@top banana How can the James Bond Aston Martin be classed as a TV car when it was only in a film , but at least the Aston was a hand made British car unlike a mass produced Detroit built car like the Charger
she has cute feet.
no its not the original..one of
Babe
Yes the cheker flag & litte rebel flag missing & e.t.c
not an original.. several things wrong with it.. for 1, theres no chrome vinyl roof trim.. all the original generals had it..
jason cemelich it’s real
Tom sarmento plus other Warner brothers officials proved it was
Andrew Young who are you talking to?
@74 torino Get outta here
"first session" wtf is English the title writers second language pfffft
Why is it that there's someone saying dumb shit. Watch the first episode season 1. The generals original color was white.
Wrong! The original color was flat black. The Duke boys found it abandoned by two car thieves.
Hey just want to see the cars, if I wanted to see a big boned mexican chic I'd go out side & see half a dozen... Thanks you lax lux borders...
It is not an "Original" there is already so much wrong i could tell before clicking on the video
Maybe it was rebuilt, you don't know if it was or wasn't do you?
@@The1966chevyvan the car was not rebuilt, but any REAL general lee fan would know straight off the bat the car he's trying to place with this "Car museum" is a load of crap for peoples money
@@The1966chevyvan the car is a simple replica
Also. The ragtop moulding is missing on the rear panel...Fake..
This guy is lying through his teeth. There is more than just this from the first season in Georgia still existing today.
I will look into it- perhaps they made different versions in first year ...thanks for commenting - tons of videos to post
JurassicAustin they just found one it was the first or second car because the first 5 episodes the cars were number with a badge by the vin number. And this general lee is a fake. Where is the chrome around the wheel wells and along the back rear quarters .
JurassicAustin He said 1 of the Originals not THE ORIGINAL that’s why God gave us 2 ears and one mouth TO LISYEN MORE THAN WE TALK!!!!
So there were General Lees that survived aside from this one obviously and I’m sure there were plenty that have been rebuilt over the years
