Painting Diecast Cars - Dukes Of Hazzard - ETRL Sheriff Patrol Car Restoration. In today's resurrection we did a Restoration on an ERTL Bonneville Patrol car from the Dukes of Hazzard set released in the mid 90's. I wanted to do more experimenting with Gold Leafing so we did the badges on the doors with gold first!

Hello my precious, How is your week going so far? Hope you like my Sheriff Patrol Car! 🍺🍺🧙♂
Did you know that Gauzy was the original Future floor shine formula?
It turned out awesome. Just got my new dremel3000 yesterday and ive alreasy for into a 90s dodge pickup😂. Hope to be like you one day. I love your personality. Keep it up bro.
How fitting of a project on Dukes of Hazzard day (todays the day the first episode aired in 1979)
Painting. Diecast cars. Dukes of hazzard. Ertl. Sheriff. Car. Restoration like 👍
Briliant use of gold leafing to do that sheriff's badge ! Again turned what seemed to be a junker into a display piece. Awesome ! Keep 'em comin' !
that gold leaf really makes the decal pop. looks awesome. the wheels were perfect for it.
Love the look the leafing gave that badge. Totally worth the extra work.
Awe man you are teasing me!!! Dukes of hazard baby!!!!
Man! I have the 1981 set!!! The General Lee is the reason I started this whole journey!
Yeah, they never used Pontiacs in the Dukes, BUT they did use them in Smokey and the Bandit. It's what Sheriff Justice drove. ETRL may have done the Sheriff's brown Bonneville, then used the casting for the Duke's set since it had a light bar.
I got a few of those sets when I was a kid. I loved the Dukes of Hazzard. I was always upset because the police cars were different than the ones that were actually in the show.
We all were upset because they weren’t dodge whatever car like on the show.
Yea, Ertl I guess was to tight to cast the the actual car. Instead they actually used the cast of sheriff Buffed T justice car from Smokey and the bandit.
And on the 24th anniversary of the first Dukes episode. How fitting.
Yeehaw! Love those Duke Boys and that Rosco! Of course, Daisy always took the cake.
Right on! Right on! Right on! Rosco P Coltrain! Hey I just came over from watching The Cabin Fever World Cup on XMC. Blazing speed and road carnage galore. I'll take 2 from the bottom.
Great restoration on this one . The gold leaf was a nice touch brother.
First off I would like to say I really enjoy watching your videos. You do really good work. Secondly, you were correct in saying you never saw a Pontiac Bonneville police cruiser on Dukes of Hazzard. The cars used were Dodge Coronet or Plymouth Fury. The Pontiac Bonneville was used in Smokey and the Bandit. It was a gold or brown colored police cruiser driven by Sheriff Buford T. Pusser. Pontiac gave the cars for production. Not picking anything apart, just trying to educate. Thanks again and keep the videos coming. 😁
I think the Reason Ertl went with the Pontiac was probably they wanted to avoid Copyright with Chrysler which owns Dodge or they figured that it was cheaper to reuse the same casting from another set, the Pontiac Bonneville Casting they used was used for Buford T. Justice's Car from their Ertl Smokey & the Bandit 2 set.
Hello, from land down under..... love these castings and what a great job. Well done
Very sweet love the gold came out sweet very nice work as always Lee
Excellent job. I've always wanted to see this Bonneville casting as a civilian car. Fill the light bar in and so on.
Came out sweeeeet! Dig those wheels and the floor shine worked great I need to go get some
Reminds me of Dukes of Hazard ... Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane callin' all cars!
2:38 Ertl also sold these in a 4-pack window box that included either Daisy’s jeep or Cooter’s pickup, but it seems like the selection was practically random, as each one seems to have different cars (like THREE patrol cars plus Boss Hogg’s Caddy 😅). There’s a VHTF playset too that has all five vehicles with a playmat & cardboard buildings. Cool stuff 😁
nice looking car, rosco would be proud.
Beuford T. Justice had a Pontiac.
A Smokey and the Bandit set would be cool.
I don't remember Rosco having a Pontiac. It has been a while though.
Nice job on that one.
Wheels look awesome on this police car.
Another fine Paint job. Need to find a way to make a blister pack and remake the Duke's of Hazard series.
Enos you dipstick!! Gegde jaw. I loved that show!!
a lens brush (air bellow with a brush is a good way to get rid of the crumbs. Coolness the finish man!
You should do mystery machine van next project
Loved that show. Love the gold leaf
Well done, nice wheel choice.
Awesome video! Continuing with the theme of TV show cars have you ever thought of recreating the Possum Van from the Red Green Show?
2:52 Authentic Dukes of Hazzard action.
That's sheriff Buford T Justice's Pontiac from Smokey and the Bandit lol
Awesome work as always.
That came out great 👍.
👍👍👍👍
looks great again. especially with the detailing. :) the gold leafing looks fantastic, the wheels, too. they seem to have become MBs new Superfast wheels... a lot of models have these on.
as for the testors paint, Carson Modelsport has a paint remover specifically made for polystyrene and lexane. I tried it on an old Siku plastic model from the early 60's that has been slathered with modelers paint with like, 666 layers of paint. the paint remover is a bit like a thinner, it softens the paint so you can scrape it off with a plastic scapula, and the plastic doesn't become brittle from it. it does get a rough surface, however. I did this years ago, and recently checked on the parts, and they still hold up; no brittle, no breaking, no warping.
Very cool, although if half the light bar was red it would be even better!
That things awesome! would look perfect next to my custom 1/64 General
Another great restoration. Would love to see you add Daisy Duke’s white Jeep to the entourage, if you think it’s possible/practical.
Nice job brother looks great but ya gotta do the hole set of em.ya gotta have the hole set. 😂👍✌
Great restoration, enjoyed the video!
Pretty nice bud! Looks like Ol Roscoe P Coltrane’s car!
Dings = Michigan
Yeeeeeeee Haaaaawwwww! That is one fine lookin' automobile!
Where the hell was Jimmy? No shop super and the door decal gets jacked damn it man...😳🤣😎
Sweet stuff Austin great build bro...
Hello!, From Cleveland Ohio USA 🇺🇸
Crisp and Clean nice job! ✌️
I can see ole Roscoe P. Coltrane and Flash riding in it right now
Looks sick with it 👌 You are the Champion 🏆
Very nice work as always Lee
Looks Great Buddy!! I really wanna try gold leafing now
Nicely done... once again!
Thats stunning! I do love those old American police barges. Watching that made me wonder if you'd ever tried panel line wash? It's what the model aircraft guys use to bring out the details on flat surfaces, and it might help with door and bonnet lines.
Yeee Haw!!
Them Dukes. Them Dukes!
Roscoe P. Coltrane, Ged ded geg...
Omg! So many memories. Sweet work bro.
Great restoration. I have the Jeep and the pickup if you want them.
Just a thought, could you try a dark wash on the grills to give them some depth? Nice job.
I had the original issue Ertl FL and Boss Hog Cadtdy back in about 1982 ish. God I’m so old lol
Totally awesome, Looks good.
I had this one growing up.
Looks great another great job
i have soaked old plastic model car's in super clean takes testors paint right off. redid my childhood model collection doing this.
Awesome Awesome Awesome Awesome!!!!!!!!
That looks great.
Roscoe never used the Bonneville. Only fictional Sheriff I know of that used a Pontiac Police Car, was Buford T Justice.
Exactly, that model was originally for Smokey and Bandit 2. I had it and the trans am as a kid.
Awesome build sir. The Dukes of Hazzard was my favorite show and now my 12 year old grandson loves watching it on DVD
As a youngster, I made sure to watch every episode. I've still got my vintage played-with set along with 2 new General Lees still on the Ertl card I bought in 1988. Pretty sure these sets came out in the early eighties judging by how much action mine saw. I didn't play with them much after jr high school. Love how you removed the chrome and then sprayed it with something that looks so much like chrome. What product did you use for that??? Super nice paint work and the gold leaf really does make the model a show piece.
Great job 👍
Looks fantastic. The gold leaf detail puts it over the top.
Nice job 👍
Looking good!
Looks kind of like Buford T. Justice's cruiser in the opening shot. That was probably originally a Smoky and the Bandit cruiser and Ertle repurposed it for the Duke's set. Like you said I don't remember a Pontiac being used.
I have a sealed set. Picked it up last year for $10 👍🏼👍🏼🍻
In the t.v. series they used Dodge Monaco's, some 4 door Plymouth Furies, and a couple of A.M.C. Matador's. One of Roscoe's lines was, "You done and gone scuffed my vehicle". One of the best t.v shows ever.
Nice job brother 🍻
The Pontiac was originally made as Buford Justices sheriffs car in the Smoky And The Bandit set. The cars were originally goldf/brown
Nice restoration! Pretty cool how you can make an entertaining video of a 'boring' cop car 😁
To the best of my recollection, Pontiacs were never used in the Dukes of Hazzard. I believe the Sherriff's cars were Dodges. It was probably a recycled Smokey and the Bandit Sherriff's car that was reused for the set. Kids wouldn't notice. Nice restoration job. As always, thanks.
Dodges, Plymouths and Amcs
That came out awesome considering what you started with. I don't remember there being Pontiac Bonneville cop cars in the show but there were a few changes made in the final season(s) (Daisy driving a 73 Road Runner instead of the CJ7 for instance), I can't remember what the cop cars in the reunion special were but I think only Rosco had a Dodge Monaco in that from memory. Most likely ERTL just had a buch of castings left over from the Smokey and the Bandit 2 sets and just used those, it was pretty common for them to do stuff like that back then.
That is very surprising to me that this set was released in 1997. I would have guessed early to mid ‘80s for sure.
Wow that looks cool good job love the videos
Awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Perfect 36,❤👍✌
you sir do superb work!!! that was a car from my child hood! that body was used so often, smokey and the bandit and many others! as always great work!!!
my first car was a 78 dodge monaco 2 door, dark red and a white vinyl top, red interior. vinyl seats were red to.
That looked so good great job. The gold leaf is nice too. 👏👏
Sweet resto mod 👍🏻🔥🤘🏻
That show is one of my all time favorite tv shows, I was very young and the show was in reruns of reruns of reruns when I watched it.
That plate # is the car that Enos drove. Roscoe's was 83522
no Enos and Cletus had 83502
Hazzard County sheriff's did not use Pontiacs, the model was for the movie Smoky and the Bandit 2. What I did not remember at first they used some Ambassadors the first seasons, then got started with the Mopar brigade.
Yup it looks sharp as a tack. Especially with the wheel choice.
Not sure where it originated for sure, but the Bonnevile was also used in a Smokey & The Bandit set that Ertl made as well.
Try burnishing the leafing with a damp lint-free cloth. Helps it adhere to the sizing. You might even try taking the mask off after applying the sizing but before laying down the leafing. It can be almost completely dry and the leaf will still stick.
That looks amazing. Im sure jimmy approves of it also.
Roscoe never used the Pontiac. Ertyl just used a Smokey and the Bandit cop car.
Great job! Always enjoy watching your videos at the end of a long day so relaxing!
lookin sick!
Nice build, details and paint job 👍👍
Lovely detail work as always my dude. I love that you do point out goofing out on one of the stickers rather than try to gloss over it and hope people don't notice. And indeed, pledge revive does add an extra umph to an old glass
My friend and I was just talking about the dukes of Hazzard and I am also planning on restoring two general Lees
Wow,so shiny! me like🤤
That was pretty bloody awesome!
I have that set of cars. Actually 1 set still in the box. I probably have 4 or 5 of the general lee. Couple of them got repainted.
