YEE-HAW! Dang Duke Boys!

Howdy boys! Just thought ya’ll would like a sneak peek at the next General Lee coming to your County soon!

This special edition of the famous Charger is now released.  The overall artwork and presentation is about all you could ask for in a collectible slot car.

The dirt effect is impressive to my eyes. I hear a special method is used to make it: (ahem)
The dirt paint effect is a fine blend of earth (sourced from Georgia), fine graded and crushed to a powder and then blended with a polyurethane acrylic base liquid. The liquid is then poured into a large shallow tray and each ‘Moonshine Run’ model is run at speed through the tray several times to get that authentic look. After that, we hook power up to the windshield wipers and run them for a couple seconds to get the clearance wipe on the windshield.

Can’t forget Daisy. What would this car like this be without her?

Box art is nicely done.

I like the overall look. I must say between the packaging and detail level, most of you who like this car will want it 🙂

 

Any fan of the Dukes of Hazzard will simply have to have this one. We always seem to have room for models like this when the subject matter is FUN 🙂
