‘Dukes of Hazzard’ Stars Reunite & Talk Memories of the Famous General Lee Car

The stars of The Dukes of Hazzard — John Schneider (Bo Duke), Tom Wopat (Luke Duke) and Catherine Bach (Daisy Duke) — came together to celebrate the General Lee, a 1969 Dodge Charger that is now on display, along with the car from Herbie: The Love Bug and Scooby Doo‘s Mystery Machine, in ICONIC RIDES: A Drive Through Time at The Hollywood Museum in Hollywood.

The General Lee on exhibit was used in three movies after the series ended: the TV movies The Dukes of Hazzard: Reunion! (1999) and The Dukes of Hazzard: Hazzard in Hollywood (2000), and the theatrical film The Dukes of Hazzard (2005), starring Johnny Knoxville, Seann William Scott and Jessica Simpson, in which this version of the General Lee was the primary one used on camera. Steve Charger, the owner of the car, told ReMIND, “In the reunion movie, John [Schneider] mainly drove that car. Then in the second movie, where they go to Hollywood, [John] brought his own car and used it, but the car was still used as the secondary car.”
