Title: Generallee has a General Lee!!
Post by: generallee on October 03, 2006, 08:31 PM: Just bought this from a local car boot on sunday - it had primo cranks on it, 48 spoke wheels, various bits and bobs, all shabby but saveable - and all for Â£27 [what I had in my pocket]

Emailed DK with pics and the frame number - and they believe it to be a badly resprayed year 2000 General Lee!!!! I used to have one in 99 and loved it, [hence my user name] ... and im so glad to have one again! Ive found some decals at custom riders - so its time for a resto!!!!!
General Lee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
