Yup, they were going through one or two cars a week during production, writing off car after car on every jump and every stunt. There were only a couple of cars that were truly "general lee" cars. This WAS one of them, but Schneider has modified the heck out of it, effectively removing whatever value it would have as an "as used" movie or TV celeb car. There is very little original left on the car.
