Brought to you by the award-winning team at Visionalist Entertainment Productions, Detroit: The City of Hot Rods & Muscle Cars gives you an in depth look at how Detroit has impacted the hot rod & muscle car communities.
Muscle cars didn’t just change Detroit automotive culture; they reimagined it. The ability to control raw power on an open road without checkered flags or pace cars, with distant frontiers beckoning, came to symbolize the unbridled freedom of the American spirit. The original muscle car aficionados, mostly Baby Boomers, may have slowed bit on the open road, but their culture lives on in countless rallies, classic car shows, and of course, the iconic Woodward Dream Cruise. The love of steel and speed transcends generations and it also defies the constraints of gender and background. The documentary is a celebration of the unique Detroit muscle car community and how Motor City iron has circumnavigated the globe and shaped world culture.
This is a 66+ minute cut of the original 94 minute documentary does not contain the original music as seen on Detroit Public TV / PBS because of music licensing stipulations...but it is still an awesome ride!
