I have dreamed of a 3rd gen general lee, wouldn't do it though, but I would like to see it nonetheless. (it would look weird for black man to drive around with a confederate flag on his ride

reminds me of my first concept project third gen. Called the General Stonewall. Similar to General Lee but slight difference.

Its not bad, I would probably do it myself but then I have to hear what the die-hard DOH fans have to say and gripe about. Heck they don't like General Lees on other Chargers sometimes.

Oh yeah forgot the pushbar.

Of course not. What was I thinking? A Camaro with a confederate flag? Clearly I was mistaken!!!

...man I'm just messin' with ya!!! ...but I still gotta wonder about that Iroc-Lee!!!

Heh, well as cool as I think it looks, it sure isn't a way to shrug the "red neck" image...

But I've never worried about people thinking I'm a red neck, once I get out of the car they know I'm not.

Nah don't have any pics, but i can make a photochop of it.

Also can make one of a general lee with pushbar.

Matter of fact one of the things i was trying to figure out was mounting of the pushbar. Not sure how it be done, even the police package camaros didn't have a push bar.

If I had the money, i'd totally do that.

I'd be alittle worried about a big Confederate flag on my roof, though. While most sane people wouldn't care, there are quite a few tossers out there who might take deep offense to it, and key the car or something. People don't generally fly confederate flags in New Jersey, lol.

Still, I think it looks bad ***. I wanna chop my Firebird like that, but I don't really feel like doing it right now.

Well I do know that they sell the Decal kits for chargers to make General Lee Replicas. The only thing that might not work is the flag maybe just a bit to big for the roof. But if you wanted a confederate flag and feared what people would do, get a magnetic sticker made and remove it when ever.

I reckon I took a chance for a while having both a dixie flag and plate on my car. I got some mean looks. 90% of people (any racial background) thought it was kind of cool and funny(in a good way). Man I miss that horn.

Oh by the way I found a drawing I did of General Jackson when I was a kid. It was an IROC red base, blue bottom(kind of ugly), with 02 on the side in the same font as the 01 of the general lee.
Maybe another color.

I already get enougth gripe because I made a remote control general.

If no one is willing to do this, I might give it a go. But the stickers and stuff would have to be removeable. Like I said I get enougth gripe from my friends and family about the dukes of hazzard.

Funny you should say that, I got a game that where they switch the names of cars around to avoid being sued. Well on there is what they call a 69' Dover Lighting V/X (Dodge Charger) and one paint scheme is a blue one with american flag, general grant over the windows, and 00 on the doors.
