Vehicle Description

The most famous model of
the most famous car in the world! This car was named by TV Land in 2004
as the most famous car in Television History. And this is the exact car
that they gave that prestigious award to. This car has done a lot for
me over the last 10 years and now it can be a part of your personal
collection. I will give you a brief overview of what this car has done.
It appeared in the last REAL Dukes of Hazzard movie, "Dukes Go To
Hollywood". And under the hood are the autographs of all the living
orginial cast members and crew that were on the TV show. It has been on
such shows as TV Land, Entertainment Tonight, The Insider, etc. It was
the car that Warner Brothers used as a template to build all the
General Lee's used on the latest incarnation of the Dukes of Hazzard
movie starring Jessica Simpson and Willie Nelson. And what I'm most
excited about is that it has recently starred as another car named
Traveller in my most recent movie, Collier & Co, Hot Pursuit! Its a
great family movie that I wrote, produced, starred in, well you get the
picture. Its currently in theaters in different parts of the country,
and it goes to DVD in September. Check it out and watch The General do
what it does best, go fast! I have personally raced this car in a rally
called The Silver State Classic Challenge, held in Nevada. I have also
done numerous charity events in this car including raising over
$7000.00 for Speedway Childrens Charities last year at Las Vegas Motor
Speedway and another
$4000.00 for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in the fall at the
Sam's Town 250 at Memphis Motorsports Park.Carl Edwards, now a personal
friend and Nascar superstar, drove this car himself on that track to
show me the proper racing line for my rides with the winners of that
auction! And in Memphis, Carl invited me to watch the race from the
top of his pit box with none other than legendary team owner Jack
Roush! It would take a very long time to tell you everything about this
car, so lets just stick to the relevant details. Although the plate
says a 426 Hemi, the car actually has a 511 crate motor from 1998 that
produces approx 725hp. It has suspension by Hotchkis, auxiliary
transmission by Gear Vendor, Viper brakes, and a racing steering box.
Although I hate to part with this car, I am really looking forward to
building a new one, something I haven't done since I built this one.
One more detail, there is an article coming out in a major car magazine
where this car is compared and raced against the Starsky and Hutch car,
and the Batmobile. Guess who won? As to picking up the car, the buyer
will be responsible for all costs associated with picking up and
shipping if any of this car. Good luck to all.

is for those of you who think this may be a scam. We had some less than
honest people drive up the auction yesterday and for that we apologize.
Please follow this link to a CBS news story done here at Johns
residence several days ago.

On May-02-07 at 14:49:11 PDT, seller added the following information:Look
in the store for the DVD that started this whole General Lee auction.
Its Collier & Co, Hot Pursuit, a movie that John wrote back in
1982. It stars him and of course this car that you are looking at, and
its fun with fast cars for the whole family. If you liked the Dukes of
Hazzard TV show, you will love this movie.
