Dukes of Hazzard's "General Lee" at $2.3 million and still time left!!!

I prefer mine in black.

But it IS a beautiful car.

Wow, it's not even a genuine HemiCuda but a bastardized version with a 511 engine and a different suspension and transmission.

I guess that there is so much wealth out there and worship of celebrities that this car will sell for an outrageous price.

Don't forget that there is a lot of hype on items like this though.

A few weeks ago there was a report that Anna Nicole Smiths diaries had sold on Ebay for about $500,00, and then they were sold for $59,750 (with the original owner retaining the publishing rights). Seems to be a bit of hype in that report.

ANS diary sales story

^ +1.

About 5 or 6 years ago I saw a General Lee in Australia on ebay that didn't get an opening bid of $39K. Supposedly it was 1 of 26 or something like that.

WTF, how can it be the "original" if it has an engine from 1998? And who's the nutjob bidding $2M?

Chrysler styling went downhill after '67. Which, coincidently, is the year of my car a Plymouth Satellite.

Also, the hemi engine is very heavy, unless it is an aluminum block the "crate hemi" would be like putting a boulder on the front of your car. It wouldn't handle well at all.

$9.9 million with 22 minutes left! (And the line after the high bid is still "Get low monthly payments")

Some redneck has a lot of money

I saw an AP story on this, and apparently the bidder is legit. He owns a knife business, or Web site, or somesuch.

That is more than many race winning Ferrari & Porsche! Talk of insane...

That's a $10,000,000 hick-mobile there.

Probably one of those hicks who won the lottery and realized they had 245million left after putting new shoos on the pick-up and buying new patio furniture.

MrR

This is an astonishing amount for one of many production runs of this famous car.

Until now, I believe the highest price ever paid for an American car at auction was $5.5M for Carroll Shelby's personal Cobra Super Snake.

I bet John is in his garage, right now, working on another one.
