Jalen Rose to Auction off 1969 Dodge Charger General Lee

Attention Duke of Hazzard fans! Former Indiana Pacer (and Michigan Wolverine) Jalen Rose has decided to auction off his 1969 Dodge Charger General Lee. The money will be donated to the Jalen Rose Leadership Academy in Detroit. It’s a preparatory school for high school students.
This is not some replica of a car used in the Dukes of Hazard. It’s an actual car they used to film the show and is one of the few left. Jalen Rose and John Schneider (Bo Duke) autographed the car.
Jalen did make a couple changes to the car. He changed the numbers on the door to “05” (Jalen’s jersey number) and removed the Confederate flag from the roof.
The auction starts on May 23rd with an opening bid of $45,000. To read more about this and to preview the auction click here.
