That’s right kids, two of your favorite rides from TV shows past – the Dodge Charger General Lee from Dukes of Hazzard, and the Ford Gran Torino from Starsky & Hutch – raced head to head on BBC’s Fifth Gear. DAMN – this is one sexy video. I have wanted a General Lee since I was old enough to understand the gas pedal means GO! Enjoy…

Lee surrendered his army to the Union and Gen. Grant at Appomattox Court House in Virginia, officially ending The Civil War.

Suffolk County police discovered the ditched 1969 Dodge Charger after it had been taken for a joy ride the previous evening in Ronkonkoma, Long Island. Suspects have yet to be rounded up. The replica was taken from Continental Car Care in Ronkonkoma – where the thief used a ladder to gain access to the auto body shop. This particular replica was actually used in the Dukes of Hazzard TV series and auctioned off for $450,000 prior to this crime.
