The Last Original General Lee on eBay

Wow it's up to $2.7 mill

 

Ridiculous... I'd love to know if that's a legit bid though, or kids playing...

 

The bids look legit. If you look at the bidder details the bidders have rather high feedback and have been on ebay for many years.
As much as I love the General Lees, with that 2.7 million I would buy myself a California Spider and an Enzo and still have some spending money left.

 

I'm sure the high bidder's either already got an Enzo and California Spider, or $2.7 mil spent on a novelty car will not kill his bank account enough to keep the F-cars out of the picture.

I doubt the guy's someone with exactly $2.7 mil of net worth saying, "Yup, this is how I want to blow my entire wad."

 

lol... but yes exactly +1

It's all relative.

 

However, I would love to have all the cars I watched and grew up with on TV when I was younger. Maybe not 2 million plus but it would be so cool to have. In that case... here is my list...

1 - KITT
2 - General Lee
3 - The truck from Fall Guy (Chevy I believe)
4 - James Bond's cars (all of them) rockets are cool
5 - The BATMOBILE (turbines are cool)
6 - And the car from the movie the CAR
7 - The Cobra from the movie Gumball
8 - A REAL Ferrari Daytona like the replica one they used Miami Vice
9 - Cooters tow truck
10 - Last but not least --- In the TV show that lasted about two weeks, STINGRAY split window coupe.

Sorry for the rant.

I recently lost my Mother and just had the need to type.


Hope all is well with everyone.

Type all you want, brother. You have all our sympathies and our ears / eyes.

My most sincere condolences. That has got to be rough.

 

Current bid. $9,900,100.00

 

Now the kids are starting to play with it. The past few bids are from people that are new to ebay and are bidding on many other items, just running up the bids for fun.

 

It's a "resto-mod" non matching numbers car. Even with the history ("b" movies and charity events, HO HUM) and the autographs, even with the "HEMI", you should be able to buy at least 10 of them at this price.

This car apparently never appeared in the TV show.

Just when did "The Dukes of Hazzard" become the Holy Grail of car movies?

I see those TV land promos all the time for their current crop of vintage shows. Not what I'd base my investment planning around.

This model Charger is one of my favorite Mopars but I'd rather have the one from "Bullit".

 

All without a PPI.

Now I KNOW these guys are nuts!

 

Awesome machine! But no way I would pay that for it!

 

but aside from that, the silver spur he is also selling is a relatively good deal, comparatively at least,

 

The "Spur" was not Rolls Royces brightest bulb. The price is more than I'd pay but a bargain compared to an old Dodge for 10 million.

 

CMT airs nightly reruns of the show and sponsors the annual DukesFest in Nashville Tenn., an event that last year attracted 70,000 people and about 150 cars painted to look like the General Lee.

This year about 200 General Lees are expected at the June 2-3 event.



Imagine paying $10,000,000 for this non-matching numbers resto-mod car (essentially the "supreme clone" as many cars were built and destroyed for the show) and showing up at this show with 200 other non-matching numbers resto-mods that are more or less identical (except for a few scribbled autographs on the underside of the hood).

I think I'd need some "white lightning".

Mad Max?

 

Where's John (yellowenzo123)? He must be pretty chipper right about now...

 

The Mad Max Interceptor!! John loves this car.
I think John owns a 440 General Lee and wants the Mad Max Interceptor.

 

Makes me wonder about those 1981 GMC custom vans like on the A-TEAM.

 

I remember that show but the car on the show was a 65 Stingray the split window coupe is a 63 model.

 

Saw this last SAT. at a car show in Visalia CA.
