Hey guys just wanted to show off my model of the Dukes series close up car. I'm a huge Dukes fan so for those who don't know about this car here's some breif history. This General Lee has been traced as far back as the 2nd Season. During the TV series this car was titled "WGL 02". It was a close up car and would have only been used with the actors in the scene and not a stunt car. Nine out of ten times, if the hood was open, this was the car was used for the shot. This car had a black engine bay, smoothed and boxed firewall, chrome hood hinges, chrome upper grille/latch tray, and the engine was dressed up with chrome.

Always loved the way this car looked under the hood. Went for the season 3 version specifically. If I ever own a G.L this is how it will look in the engine bay.

Thank you! :) It didn't turn out exactly how I wanted but it fought me every step of the way and for how much trouble it gave me I'm happy with it.

Nice work, that looks pretty cool. I totally forgot about those chrome valve covers, I'll have to see how firmly mine are glued on...a part swap may be in order.
