General Lee Spotted in Brooklyn

What on earth is the General Lee doing in New York City? The replica of the Dukes of Hazzard car was spotted in Brooklyn over the weekend, and it isn't the first Confederate flag to make it to the borough. Chances are you'll see it around town, those are New York plates! The Brooklyn Eagle ran it to it as well, parked over on Union Street in the Columbia Waterfront District. Let's us know if you see it catching some air.

There's at least one of these on Long Island. I remember reading last year about it being stolen from a shop and found a few days later.

the wheels are wrong and thus i can't agree that this is a "replica"
