Hi Gail! I still can't believe that I really did see our favourite orange car for real - guess it is taking a while to sink in. If I ever get a chance for an up-close look, then I will be just thrilled to bits!
You will definately know about it, mate! As for it being genuine, as far as I know, it was an actual '69 Dodge Charger, meaning the whole shape of the car was the same as the General Lee. I doubt that it would have been an original from either the tv show or the movies, but somebody (probably a Dukes fan) has had it imported from the US at great expense, or, it is the one that was up for grabs in an Australia-wide competition thru a national burger franchise (Hogg's Breath Cafe). This was a few years ago now, but who knows where the winner came from in Australia; could be anywhere. Gee, Gail, you probably have so many Generals over there that they probably drive up and down every street in America all the time, right??! LOL!
Take care.....
