Springfield's Most Beautiful Attraction

My wife, Aubrey, has recently started a Springfield Daily Photo blog. Today, she's captured one of Springfield's most glorious accomplishments. Forget the Dana-Thomas House. Forget the ALPLM. Forget that shabby old Capitol Building. Folks, we have the General Lee Baron.

For the last year or so, I've seen this car sitting on the street, just off Fayette between MacArthur and Walnut. I love this car. Every time I see it I laugh to myself. Just a great sense of humor from this car owner. I wish I had the imagination and the drive to actually do something like this myself. Unfortunately, there aren't a lot of cool things you can do with a Pontiac Vibe.

Cue nostalgic Dukes of Hazzard video:



FYI Denver Pyle is the man.

Man, I miss my old neighborhood. But judging from that car, it seems to have gone down a little bit.

Aubrey, shoot me an email if you'd like the Springfield Daily Photo blog included in Spfldbloggers. It's more than worthy.

Aw, come on, AC. It's probably just some good old boy. Never meanin' no harm. I will say that the General LeBaron beats all you ever saw.
