Dukes of hazard

[RGA]

So I was driving home tonight and it dawned on me. I have a 69 dodge charger, 68 chevy wrecker tow truck, and a 76 ford f100, only thing missing is the old cj and I have the whole hazard fleet. Not sure if the truck and the tow truck are exact but close enough and it was by accident. Does anyone know the make and model of cooters wrecker ?

Forget the Jeep. Get a yellow '71 Roadrunner.

[Ghoste]

Get both.

Forget the Jeep. Get a yellow '71 Roadrunner.

Great idea but go with purple and white stripes/interior.

[JT01]

Cooter had a early Chevy for a while a 69-72 and then he had a yellow Ford. Also its Hazzard not Hazard

[nvrbdn]

ah  not so fast, you need roscoe's patrol car and the drop top cadi. go ahead and get them all. it will be a great collection also, rules are without picks it really isnt real cant wait to see your lineup.

[Stretch]

Cooter also had a white and blue '67 or '68 1 ton ford.

[Cooter]

Actually, in the first episodes before the "Dixie" Jeep, Daisy's car went from 1971-1974 Roadrunner/Satellite.

I was thinking the same ting it was a Yellow 73 RR, Her you go it's not the best photos

[Cooter]

Here's one.

[Budnicks]

Holly crap that munched...

[Cooter]

Here's the episode.

[Budnicks]

That's the 71 or 72 for sure there... I watched allot in my teens, many many moons ago, I'm just a casual fan of the show, not really a diehard fan, I remember the show & watch reruns at late night sometimes on CMT or Spike or whatever channel it is, "It pisses me off every time they munch/wreck another Charger", you see them buckle every time, after they jump, when they land... I catch a bunch of changes all the time in the show, I've seen the 71-72 & a 73-74 RR & a number of different cars, Jeeps & trucks, that seem to change from time to time, like I said I'm a casual fan not an expert that's for sure....

Since this is a DOH thread, Folks seem to always tell me "I can't believe as hard as Chargers are to find today, they tore up THOUSANDS in that show!"
When I explain that in 7 years, the show tore up something like 300 Chargers.
What was the total production in 1968
1969?
1970?
Like close to 180K Chargers? Really? 300 is so bad?  They tend to forget about the ones that are sitting in backyards rotting away waiting on a sucker, ones that were totaled while drunk/racing/etc., ones that are hoarded away in some storage facility awaiting the same sucker with $$, ones that were crushed due to lack of buying public at junkyards back in the late 70's, etc.....Just funny to me that's all...

I know it was 13 plus episodes a year & a couple of Chargers every episode probably, I shouldn't say it pisses me off, more like there goes another 1 wrecked, I still have a soft spot about all the cars wrecked.. It's just me I guess, I like the Chargers allot better than the show, story lines & actors really... Except for Daisy of course...

The show often aired 22 or more new episodes each year. 147 in the entire series run.

Deffinatly have to get the road runner, I remember seeing a cross ram max wedge in that thing at some point, That wrecked one had a four barrel so must of been another one. I'll try to get a pic today of the fleet.

Yellow Roadrunner/Satellite...
In the first 5 'Georgia' episodes, it was a 73/4 Roadrunner (I can't tell which just by looking). When production went to California they were 71's, Satellites I believe (can see the dash emblems in several shots), with RR stripes. I have looked while watching old episodes and have yet to spot a 72, but I could be wrong.

Also I guess u notice sometimes Jesse's Truck is a SWB, sometimes a LWB. I have also noticed sometimes the LWB will be 3/4 ton pickups, sometimes 1/2 tons. A lot of inconsistancy with the vehicles on the show.....Don't even get me started on the Charges, lol.

Your thinking of the Maroon one that was in a race of some sort I think...Strikes me the air cleaners stuck up out of the hood or something.

Thats was Cooters car he had just for one episode Daisy was driving it at first but it wasnt her car. Luke was driving it at the end of the show and they jumped it. The episode was Jude Emory

[Cooter]

WOW Jt01, you got me on that one. I had forgotten all about that episode. I had to go back in my collection and sure nuff, there it was..

[RGA]

So was it a cross ram max wedge or 

[Cooter]

So was it a cross ram max wedge or 

I believe it had the manifolds, but unsure if it was an actual Max Wedge engine or not.

[Bobs69]

That's the episode where Cooter sends Daisy off in the maroon road runner and says "keep it between the ditches".  She shows up at "Patche's" place in hot pink shorts and says "I hear you are looking for hot driver's!"

Think Luke was in the middle of loosing an arm wrestling contest with some goon.   Was about to get the back of his hand buried in a something they called a blood brother.

Wow, I got a good memory.

That depends on how you look at it. Some of the episodes was a two part episode, so there far it could also be counted as one episode too. An there was are least 3 two part episodes made.

The Ten Million Dollar Sheriff
The Undercover Dukes
The C.O.T's

An there was mostly 3 chargers used per episode of the Dukes of Hazzard series. 3 cars was mostly on hand at any given time for an episode. They jump at least one charger per episode (but for Mary Kay's Baby episode as there is no General Lee at all to be found in that episode).

The Ten Million Dollar Sheriff (2 General Lee jumps) 
The Undercover Dukes (none I think) 
The C.O.T's (3 General Lee jumps) The creek scene with 1 General Lee, then 2 General's used for the 32 car jump scene, 1 General Lee on first jump hit the last car on the stack (nose down towards the take off scene of the footage) (2nd General Lee used for the ending of the jump scene (Nose on cut footage is now facing up while tail end is facing down))
