Daisy
Duke's Jeep - White CJ-7 Jeep driven by
sexy cousin Daisy Duke (Catherine Bach) on the
rural action adventure THE DUKES OF HAZZARD/CBS/1979-85.
Daisy works as a waitress at the Boar's Nest,
wears cut off jeans, high heels and always has
great big inviting smile. She drives about
Hazzard County in a yellow 1972 Road Runner
(license FCH 630) with black racing strips, that
is, until the it was driven of a cliff by the
Duke Boys (the brake line failed and the boys
bailed just in time).
At the end of this episode (No. 27 "The
Runaway") Daisy is presented with her new car: a
white AMC Golden Eagle Jeep named "Dixie." It
sported a hood with a gold eagle emblem. License
plates: DIXIE. Daisy's CB Handles were "Little
Bo Peep" or "Country Cousin."
The Daisy Duke character and her Jeep were
merchandised as models - one created by Mego in
1981 and another 1:25 scale plastic model kit
from AMT replicates Daisy Duke's 1980 Jeep CJ-7.
There was also an arcade-style racing game
called The Dukes of Hazzard: Racing for Home! by Playstation (Waylon Jennings provides the
narration) and the sequel The Dukes of Hazzard
II: Daisy Dukes it Out. The game's missions
included avoiding cop cars, speed traps, road
obstacles and other hazards and on occasion
driving Daisy Duke's Jeep and, of course, the
Duke Boy's General Lee automobile.
TRIVIA NOTE: The
CJ-7 model (Daisy Duke's model) began production
in 1976 and ended in 1986. The CJ stands for
"Civilian Jeep." See also "The
General Lee"
