In which hotel in Vegas is the Dukes of Hazards car General Lee on show? -

I can t remember where we saw it when we were in Vegas in September .Was it the Pallazzo

I heard it was the Wynn Hotel and Casino.

Not sure why shoredude2 got so many thumbs downs, unless it was because he did not directly asnswer your question.. I gave him a thumbs up. He is right. There is no actual single Dukes of Hazzard car. In the TV show and movie they had to use a different car for every jump. The jump damages the car so badly it is no longer safe. Dozens of those cars may have been saved and are now presented as the Dukes of Hazzard car. I recall reading some years ago that the producers of the TV show would actually leave notes on cars in parking lots asking if the owner would sell it to them. You might see a car promoted as used in the TV show or used in the movie and that is probably true...along with a whole bunch of identical cars.

Over 200 different General Lees were used over the course of the TV series and 28 were used for the movie. So wherever you saw it, it wasn t that special.

Imperial Palace has a car museum - but I don t know if it d be there. We were there in March and it wasn t. They had the summer of love theme down on Fremont - could it have been there?
