In this movie they say that the car, Double Zero was the only car to ever beat the General Lee. Thats not exactly true, in season 1 the General came second in the Hazzard Derby or whatever it was. It's beaten by a car called "Lucifer" driven by some chicks.
Tho, at the end Bo says Luke let the girls win, but it still counts as a loss.
What was also stupid was that if you see the back of the General Lee at the end of the movie, they forgot to paint the panel that the tailights are set into black (it was painted body color orange). All 69 Chargers had black tailight panels unless it was an SE model, where it could have been silver.
shareyeah i noticed that aw well as the liscense plate still had the same number but was with black letters.....cnh-320
shareDid you also notice at the end of the Moonshine race when the General Lee backs up you can actually see the brake lights light up? I don't ever remember seeing the tail or brake lights ever come on during the TV show. I think there was only one episode that showed the headlights actualy on.
shareNot to mention that General Lee with the orange backing didn't have a CB Antenna on the trunk either. I asked about this whole Double 00 non-sense on the regular board and never got an answer. I'm guessing that's a made up back story, but some people seem convinced that this actually happened and I was just wondering if it was ever shown in an episode.
"They have a grill, it's this grill. Now you have it...it's called America."
Yes in the TV series the General Lee did have working tailights and turn signals. I saw both used durning the run of the series.
