See My Lee!

OK, this installment of our occasional "See My Lee!" feature has quite the twist. Special thanks to Paul Harrington of the Canadian Dukes of Hazzard Fan Club for passing along these photos ...

This blog reported a couple weeks back that a company in Flint, Michigan, called Hardcore Racing was going to jump a General Lee. Well, Hardcore actually listed their General Lee (built by General Lee Enterprises, by the way) on eBay as an "as is" auction of the car in whatever condition it would survive this jump (a jump televised for use by the Discovery Channel, no less):

Wanna see what happened? Behold ... the before and after photos, below. And definitely check out Hardcore Racing's website, http://www.weracehardcore.com, to see the actual video of the April 29 jump, which featured original "Dukes of Hazzard" stunt guy Tom Sarmento, among others.

Now, if that's not fun, tell me what the heck is???????
