69 Dodge General Lee Charger

1969 Dodge Charger RT

FEATURED ON THE COVER OF MOPARS COLLECTOR'S GUIDE IN 1996 WITH AN ARTICLE INSIDE TALKING ABOUT THE CAR'S BUILD ALONG WITH THE T.V. SHOW

THIS CHARGER STARTED LIFE AS A REAL "L" CODE 440 R/T AND WAS TRANSFORMED INTO A GENERAL LEE BACK IN 1996 WHEN THE NASHVILLE NETWORK "TNN" BOUGHT THE RIGHTS FROM WARNER BROTHERS TO BEGIN AIRING "THE DUKES OF HAZZARD" TELEVISION SERIES AGAIN. THIS CAR WAS COMMISSIONED BY THE NETWORK TO BE BUILT AS A PROMOTIONAL AND DISPLAY CAR TO HELP PROMOTE THE SERIES.

TNN COMMISSIONED AUTO BODY CONCEPTS OF GOODLETTSVILLE, TN TO BUILD THE CAR.

THE CAR WAS LATER GIVEN AWAY IN A SPECIAL 15TH BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION SWEEPSTAKES BY TNN.

SINCE I BOUGHT IT IN 2014, I HAVE HAD ANY IDENTIFIED MECHANICAL ISSUESADDRESSES AND ALL FLUIDS REPLACED.

REBUILT 440 WITH A LOT OF PERFORMANCE GOODIES

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION

THIS CAR LOOKS GREAT ON DISPLAY BUT IF YOUR LOOKING FOR A PERFECT TRAILER QUEEN NUT AND BOLT RESTORATION KEEP LOOKING. THIS CAR WAS A PROMO BUILT CAR SO IT WASNT A PERFECT RESTORATION IT WAS MADE TO LOOK GOOD ON T.V. AND ON DISPLAY AND FOR LOCAL TYPE CAR SHOWS. THE CAR DOES LOOK NICE AND SHOW WELL BUT ITS NOT WHAT ID CONSIDER A HIGH END RESTORATION.
THE PAINT SHOWS WELL BUT THERE ARE SOME FLAWS UP CLOSE, THE INTERIOR IS ALL THERE BUT BOTH FRONT SEATS HAVE SPLITS ON THE SEAMS. UNDERSIDE HAS HAD A COUPLE OF PATCH PANELS WELDED IN ETC.. I DONT WANT TO TEAR MY OWN CAR APART AND MAYBE IM WAY TO FUSSY I JUST WANT THE NEXT BUYER TO BE HAPPY AND AWARE OF WHAT THEY ARE GETTING..THE CAR DOES LOOK GREAT FROM 5FT AWAY. JUST DONT CONFUSE IT WITH A $100K NUT AND BOLT RESTORED CAR. THIS WOULD BE THE PERFECT KIND OF CAR TO DRIVE AND SHOW OFF AND HAVE FUN WITH.
