Sold my UGA Collection for My Dream Car!!
Well I have had a blast collecting over the past 8 years. I was very fortunate to own some really great items. My favorite being my Herschel Walker jersey. But over the past few months it had become boring. I had owned at one point or had in my possession at the time. I noticed that their were only a handful of UGA collectors that bought traded or sold so the market was slim. I had been on this car find for some time. I had been in contact with a guy who had the car built by a past mechanic for Warner Bros and the TV show in the 80's. My dream car was The General Lee. Car is immaculate. All graphics are painted on and cleared over. 440 Mopar engine bored out with Comp racing Cam. 383 gears and 727 racing rear. It is also signed by the whole cast except Boss Hog and Uncle Jesse along with Waylon. Their are In Memory plates for those guys. The only thing warner Bros changed a few shows in was the interior color which they changed from black to tan for camera purposes. Black was better looking to Warner Bros but was hard to film in.This car will scald a DAWG....From one dream of collecting to my childhood dream of owning The General. I do still have about 20 jerseys left to sell. The Man cave is now a bedroom but we left the UGA theme up there. Yall have fun....
