Dukes Review: S7E01

“Happy Birthday General Lee”

Dukes Review: The greatest race of the General Lee is not in this episode…..but it’s the first win of the General, and I have recently been reminded that your first win is irreplaceable. There’s no doubt about the fact that in the course of the Dukes of Hazzard, this is the race that put him on the map.

Thomas Steven Wopat presents the birth of the General Lee and – whether he meant to or not – creates the canon of the entire series by answering what every little boy needed to know most. Why are the doors welded shut? It’s here. What’s under the hood of the General? It’s here. Why is the General orange, with a rebel flag on the roof, a dixie horn under the hood, and why is it named General Lee? It’s here. More importantly, how does an old dead wreck from a junkyard become able to fly leaps and bounds, win every race, catch every bad guy, win every girl for the Duke Boys, respond to it’s name on command, be so much of a family member it gets it’s own birthday cake, and become the most magical car in the history of the known universe and the most famous car in the world? It’s here!

National Parts Depot Presents: Bernie on the News

The good people at National Parts Depot present the Award Winning Newsman Bernie McPartland in his (self-proclaimed) award winning news segment, Bernie On the News. As most of you know, NPD is the title sponsor of The MuscleCar Place Podcast and has been since 2011. Their immense support of TMCP as a show (and as a company) can’t be overshadowed.

And now, the fact that they are presenting Bern in the drivers seat for the world to hear….is somewhat humbling. And by humbling, we mean frightening, terrifying, sickening, etc. Welcome, NPD (and Bern, don’t screw this up)!

Ron Francis Wiring:

The Celebrity Automotive Birthday

The good people at Ron Francis Wiring have chosen (reluctantly) to present our award winning game, Celebrity Automotive Ancillary Birthday. And by “reluctantly” we mean that when they find out that’s how we’re promoting their killer company thaty they may be reluctant to ever speak to us again.

But…good news; they’ll ALWAYS speak to you and help you out on your project, race car, or restoration. They may even talk you OUT of buying something, in fact! Do your self a favor and call them for advice along with the purchase items you need; they’ll help you with both and even give you an option you probably didn’t know was possible.

Tell them we sent you….but do NOT tell them they’re sponsoring the Birthday Game. They’ll be ticked.
