Impressive stuff - i love filming location pics. Ive done the dukes covington ( farm, boars nest etc) and only learned later that smokey and the bandit was like 20 miles away - gutted - i must have seen it 1000 times when i was a kid.
Have looked up most of these locations onstreetview, but kudos for actually getting there. Some of the locations look really different.
The flint river jump - where was the run up ? Did you manage to get into the woods ? I just couldnt see on the map how they did it !
Great pics Danny. I might reawaken my covington pics on this thread. I met cletus - but you met daisy ! Wow!
