I live about 20 minutes from where the original movie was filmed and offer tours and information of the actual movie locations. I am a laid back kind of guy and welcome your questions and comments so please email me here and say hello! If you would like a copy of my Christian story, which is involved with Smokey and the Bandit, I would be happy to email it to you. Also, please sign the guestbook if you would like to leave a comment. Jerry Reed sang it as East Bound and Down . . . but, I'm Heaven Bound and Up! God Bless.

For many years I built models without a good stagecoach graphic. There was a stagecoach decal from Smokey and the Bandit II which I copied and modified many times. I cannot tell you how many times that image ran thru my mind. I decided that if I ever found the materials, I would build it, literally! I finally found enough figures and parts to build a diorama based on the scene. Many figures are custom built and painted, including the horses and stagecoach. Sometimes I felt like the evil kid in "Toy Story" because I was cutting off arms and glueing them to other characters. I installed everything in a custom built case. It is built in 1/32 scale and measures 29 inches by 9 inches.

Thanks to Greg Vassar for the backgound.

It is truly one of a kind and it is not for sale.

Custom, Hand-Made Model Trucks...

I have been creating models for 35 years and am known for my attention to the most minute details. I specialize and sell Smokey and the Bandit trucks, figures and cars. I customize and produce the Bandit, stagecoach decal on the trailer. Please do not ask for copies, as I do not sell decals except in special cases. My Smokey and the Bandit models are in Jerry Reed's home and the Burt Reynolds and Friends Museum in Florida. You will enjoy owning one of these one-of-a-kind collectibles! Each model takes weeks to complete. Click here to view my products and email me for prices, shipping and details!
