Seeing as I had a Black '78 Trans Am, I could go for another.

But I do love me some general lee!  Would be a hard choice.

General Lee. All day. Every damn day.

Nothing wrong with the T/A. I love the movie. But I grew up watching TDOH and it holds a more special place in my heart.

Yep, I believe I read they actually had to use water or bleach, squirted on wheels to get it to smoke the tires.  Pretty sad, really.

Charger, but I'd get rid of the GL thing in favor of a dark color.

There's always the anti-General Lee.

I think in one of the later episodes is was the engine out of an AJ Foyt car or something. So going by what the show says, I'm going to pick the Charger with a NASCAR engine that you can jump over anything. Plus the biggest argument I've ever hand with my wife was about naming my son Beauregard Duke Looze.

IIRC weren't most of the jump cars 318s?  With a boatload of cement in the trunk?

Years ago, I met someone who had restored a 1979 Trans-Am with a Pontiac 400 in it.  He had a 6 pack Tripower setup and his city mpg was in the single digits (as in 4 to 6 MPG).  Regardless, that car was fun as hell to ride in!

Why must we always debate these cars in their original factory configurations, when very few of them remain that way?

This is the Bandit Trans Am I'd want. I might put the original quad headlights back in though.

ETA: but I grew up watching the Dukes of Hazzard, had the toys, bday cake , etc... it was a good, wholesome show.  Tried to get my kids into it but then CMT stopped showing it.  Bastards.  Oh well.

The Gen Lee is a classic 60's muscle car, the bandit TA is a POS 70's smog mobile. Not even close.

I actually prefer the Bandit T/A, but in the current world I'm going with the above.

Pontiac engines have been out of production for over 40 years now, and as time goes on, the number of people who have experienced a proper Poncho have dropped.

The amazing thing about them is the level of aftermarket support available to such an old platform. You can build one entirely out of aftermarket parts, including the engine block. That isn't a thing because they suck.

A properly built Pontaic is a beautiful beast.
