1968 Dodge Charger General Lee | 400ci V8, 727 Auto, Vector Wheels, Dixie Horn

This 1968 Dodge Charger is a full tribute to the iconic “General Lee” of television fame, instantly recognizable by its signature orange paint, “01” door numbers, and unmistakable presence. Inspired by its legendary role in The Dukes of Hazzard, this example was built for attention, featuring a powerful 400ci big-block V8, a Torqueflite 727 three-speed automatic transmission, and period-correct Vector wheels wrapped in modern rubber.

Presented in show-quality condition, this General Lee captures the spirit and style of its pop culture namesake while offering real-world muscle car performance and drivability. Additional equipment includes a functional Dixie horn, CB antenna, push bumper, and a tan/black interior that faithfully mirrors the on-screen car.

Exterior

The car’s iconic orange finish provides an eye-catching backdrop for the full General Lee livery, including the bold “01” graphics on the doors and a Confederate flag on the roof. The paint has a deep shine and smooth finish, enhancing the visual impact. Classic Charger details such as hidden headlights, flying buttress C-pillars, and chrome bumpers are present and in excellent condition. The black CB antenna, front push bar, and 15″ Vector-style alloy wheels complete the accurate and aggressive exterior.

Every angle of this car has been built to faithfully echo the TV show look, down to the trim accents and wide rear stance.

Interior

Inside, the cabin features a period-style two-tone tan and black interior—a nod to the on-screen cars. The bucket seats retain their original-style patterns and the front center armrest folds up for a bench-style configuration when needed. The dash presents a clean, vintage look with factory-style instrumentation and the original AM radio still in place. An under-dash switch activates the Dixie horn, letting you announce your arrival in true Hazzard County fashion. The interior is tidy and presents a well-maintained, authentic character throughout.

Engine & Drivetrain

Power comes from a 400ci Chrysler big-block V8, dressed with fabricated valve covers, an aluminum radiator, and an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor. The engine breathes through Hedman long-tube headers and a dual exhaust system that delivers a throaty muscle car sound. The engine bay is clean and well-kept, indicating a properly sorted build.

The powerplant is backed by a Torqueflite 727 three-speed automatic transmission, built to handle the torque of the big V8. Power is delivered to the rear wheels, and the drivetrain feels confident and responsive, whether cruising or accelerating with authority.

Chassis & Braking

The car rides on 15″ Vector-style wheels fitted with modern radial tires for improved drivability and grip. Power steering and front disc brakes offer more predictable handling and braking than stock, adding confidence to the classic muscle car experience.

Driving Experience

From the moment it fires up, the big-block V8 delivers the sound, feel, and punch you expect from a Charger. With the Dixie horn ready to blast and authentic aesthetics from every angle, this General Lee tribute makes a lasting impression. Despite its cinematic personality, this build has been thoughtfully put together to offer real road-going usability, thanks to upgraded braking, steering, and driveline components.

Summary

Few cars carry the cultural weight of the General Lee, and this tribute honors that legacy with detail, performance, and attitude. Featuring a built 400ci V8, automatic transmission, true-to-form styling, and a host of mechanical upgrades, this 1968 Dodge Charger is more than just a showpiece—it’s a fully capable and iconic American muscle car that turns every drive into a scene-stealer.
