At least they taped off the gauges....

I think that car was in the Sacramento (California) Autorama a couple of weeks ago.  John Schneider was standing in front of it selling autographed photos of himself.  I remember the car because I thought it was kind of strange that they had painted the entire dashboard tan. 

John Schneider touched our 1 year old granddaughter and commented about what a cute baby she was.

  John Schneider selling autographed photos of himself? I guess anything for a buck?

He has been doing that for years.  I met him at Mopar Nationals the last year it was in Indy back in around 1996.  It was $10.00 for a 8X10 and he would personalize it for you right there and would sign anything else you brought with you for free.  He also has his own E-Bay store and sells autographed Dukes memorabilia.

That's generally how it works at those kinds of events, even with a lot of small time older celebs.


Schnieder isn't known to be asking people for money for an autograph if they just ran into him at the supermarket or something.   But it's different when celebs are at scheduled events like car shows and they're paid to appear & advertised ahead of time.

He was at a Route 66 car show 4 years ago and his assistant was boasting how the guy sold 300 signed diecast General Lee cars alone over the weekend. That guys autograph must be damn near worthless. When he dies there will be tens of thousands of things sold by him over the years hitting the market at once.

Ain't that the truth.

Any DOH fan still seeking his autograph by now has been asleep for the last 10 years.

I kind of find it hard to criticize John Schneider simply because he is the reason a lot of us younger guys became interested in Chargers in the first place. Until the Dukes of Hazzard came along, the Charger was simply just another used car that was easily available. The popularity of the General Lee changed all that. Forever.

Looks like another fine restoration job by Hansy boy in Lake Villa, IL  

I thought the same thing.

Pretty much the same for just about any celebrity nowadays.
