Episode 23 - Automotive Tales: Brandon Hornbuckle's 1969 Dodge Charger "The General Lee" 

It really is!

Yea it is! He has paperwork for it that I should get some pictures of...

Yea, the general Lee is such an awesome icon

@@NomadMedia1I can't find his Facebook

@@JustinMacri007 hey sorry I'm not sure what happened. Here's a link to his Duke's Facebook page and I updated the link on the video. facebook.com/profile.php?id=61550519220358&mibextid=ZbWKwL

Kitt. K.I.T.T. is every bit as cool & iconic as the GL. I love 'em both for different reasons.

@@MsAnJel there's a hero car out there for everyone!

Be sure to stay tuned and share with anyone you think would like the story! There will be more to come as the owner has more Dukes stories to tell!

I'm glad you enjoyed it! Please check out all the other awesome vehicles on the channel as well!

Man, he told he met you and said something about my channel. Thats awesome! I hope some of your followers find something they like on mine too! 😁 I've got more coming from the Duke's lineup in the future!

Yea it is! You should see it in person. Be sure to check out his Facebook page!

Thats awesome! Want to message me on Instagram to talk about it?

sure @@NomadMedia1

I asked and he said he's been called worse 😂

I'm not sure this criticism is needed. This is a documented car built by the WB engineer/builder so I'm pretty sure it's right or never mattered to begin with...

@@NomadMedia1 I really didn't mean to sound criticizing it wasn't my intension. Its just a small detail that doesn't seem easy to hear about, and I was coming from the position of if I had a General myself and I didn't know about it, it would be something I would want to know.. But i'm sorry if I came across as negative

@@JoshPhoenix11 no worries, I didn't take it badly, just letting you know about the documentation. Criticism is a part of life in my book 😆

Hi! Please check out North Alabama Dukes Facebook page which explains more on this car by the owner. Not only was it built by the WB builder but Tom Sarmento has given it his approval. I hope you can enjoy the rest of the stories on the channel!

@@NomadMedia1Hey there.. well,I would check it out,but don't do face book,Instagram. Just email and RU-vid. I'll have someone share it with me tho. While I was watching video I heard it was built by an old General Lee builder...but didn't here Tom's Name mentioned. Tom Sarmento would know everything, should definitely know how they were built tho! I always go off of what actually was or wasn't used in film on TV Series. That means if you went thru that car with a video camera..everything would be correct and to the actual star car's blueprint!Tom's probably up there in age now,possibley don't remember it all,or Maybe he's giving approval of correctness based upon every General used..including jump cars. If so that would explain it, but if a guy takes into consideration stunt cars..all it has to be is orange,the 01,the flag,push bar,an rims..I can say if I was selling General Lee's that I built,No Matter who I was,I would be NOT be selling anyone, a General Lee that was Not Correct as a TV Series car,and claim it was. It is very probable that Tom S. Built a General exactly like it..and it was used in the series just like that. You can hide alot in from the camera. But if Tom said or ever put into writing that it is TV Series correct..shame on him! That makes me sad to think he would knowingly do that to anyone! Not cool at all!! Just subbed to ur channel..May do a binge watch tonight.

@@leecordell7418 please do an enjoy. I am ok with the paperwork provided for the car and have no reason to question it. The channels not here to nitpick. All that matters at the end of the day is he loves his car. If he was trying to sell or something it would be different, of course but this owner will never sell this car or if he does it will greatly surprise me and his children who have staked claims 😂

Well, its documented and built by the Warner Brothers builder/engineer who built the originals so I'm not sure how much more accurate it could be, short of being a literal movie car 🤷🏽‍♂️.

@NomadMedia1 doubtful. Tv cars didn't have blk dashes with tan interior, missing VT trim as the TV cars had chrome VT trim, roll bar mia, tv cars had all emblems removed that one doesn't, tv cars didn't use that lettering however the 05 movie did because they used the cheap PG decal kit, tv cars didn't have front tags, also appears to have a black package tray which should be tan so how accurate is this car again? also the tv series cars ran 235 70s and that car looks it's running 60 series tires (smaller)..GL didn't have those horrible exhaust tips either

@@thebandit7408 hey, this channel is about stories and why cars are special, and sharing those people's experiences with new and old car people, not about being 100% faithful or original or anything like that. But it is a documented car, by the real deal WB builder, not a movie car though. Just try to enjoy the story and not bash someone else's car or style.

@NomadMedia1 your the one that said it was built by builders of the orig and it was accurate which I easily showed you it wasnt.

@@thebandit7408 don't discourage the hobby we all love. This car is documented and built by the WB builder. You didnt prove anything but you're more than welcome to sit with me and show me yours that is better than this one. Out of 320-ish movie cars, roughly 3 per episode, if you can provide the pictures, episode time stamps and paperwork that every car was the exact same thats what I consider proving it. What you did was pick some info that fit your narrative, in my honest opinion, to bash a car for a reason I can't figure out.
