Recently got back from a 2 week road trip across the USA. I was mainly going for a Dukes event and to meet the cast and get interior parts from my (Rosco replica) signed. Met most of the Dukes cast before at various events,but not all at one event.

This was the event poster...

These pics were taken the day before the event. I knew the show promoter,so he invited me down to take a look around...

This is now the night before the event and the promoter had a VIP party with the stars at his house which i got invited too...

Also got to visit Cooter's in the Country store up in Sperryville,Virginia and 'ole Cooter (Ben Jones) was able to sign my car parts to complete the set.

Catherine Bach (Daisy Duke) was also signing autographs up at the Cooter's store...so got to meet her twice in one week. Down in Louisiana,LA and then Sperryville,VA

While in Charlotte,NC i got invited to Tom Sarmento's house. Tom was the lead car builder & set mechanic on Dukes,he built every stunt car used on the show.

Great stuff Danny - looks like you were the main attraction, with your tats!

And your 'funny accent' (I suspect)

I bet there weren't too many '68 & '70 GL's there....

Awesome Awesome Awesome !!!!

That must have been the trip of a lifetime - I collect toys from the 70's & 80's and have £££££ of Dukes stuff ( evel Knievel / ertl / bandit / BJ & Bear / ChIpS ) To see the cast in real life is a privilege.
