At least I have the Cafe Racer #26 built by the Detroit Bros to keep me company while I wait.
Peace and grease.

There are enough idiots out there that think jesse james, occ and a few others actually made money building those “THEME BIKES”. I wont watch “reality anything” anymore and neither will anyone I know, except for a laugh or two….FABRICATORS?… Ha, Im laughing my ass off

Best,

Good bunch of guys.
I just had a good conversation with Aarron at Detroit Bros. It is NOT scripted. I look forward to seeing the show.

They should do a reality show at the CHIP, now that would be a REAL reality show.

I think if a tv crew followed you around they would be death tired or have enough footage for 2-3 seasons LOL

You should have McCain’s ole lady back and invite Sarah P , and Levi back as judges for the Ms Buffalo Chip contest! Those 3 should cover 3 demos pretty good for a tv show.
Could be like , The good, The bad and the Ugly at the Buffalo Chip

All the best and make us proud.

The brothers are starring in an upcoming Discovery Channel series called “Motor City Motors” that they hope not only will turn around their struggling business, but also provide a boost to their economically challenged hometown.

“I think the show will bring some attention to Detroit and all of the possibilities here — all the available jobs, all the intelligent people that are here and are out of work or are struggling with their job or aren’t getting paid enough,” James Kaye said. “I’m hoping we can really make a difference.”

Each hour-long episode follows the Kayes and their dad, John, as they work to build a one-of-a-kind vehicle over a five-day period. And the stuff they’re building goes way beyond the typical custom bike or car.

In one case, they built a “Festevil,” a kind of a hamster wheel with a 1991 Ford Festiva in the middle. The Kayes removed a three-foot section from the center of the body, then set the subcompact car inside 10-foot steel rings with independent braking for each side.

Series producer Eric Lange said eight of 13 episodes have been shot, and the first one will premiere early next year.

“It was a win-win situation for them. Their bike shop was hurting. And this was a chance to bring Detroit builders in and give a little back to Detroit for them,” Lange said Friday at an open house for media, officials and businesses.

The brothers are given a challenge and a team of workers on Monday and get five days to make it a reality.

In addition to the Festevil, the Kayes also turned a 1929 Model T into a hot rod and transformed a 1992 GMC Suburban into a pothole filler with a 10-foot nitrogen spring-loaded arm, rotating hot box, 500,000-BTU torch and hydraulic tamping front end.

“We throw big challenges at them, which I always love. It’s ‘can you do this?’ That’s all,” said series creator Thom Beers, whose Original Productions also is responsible for “Deadliest Catch” on Discovery Channel and “Ice Road Truckers” on The History Channel.

The Detroit Brothers — both in their 30s — take pride in being from Detroit and hope the show trains a spotlight on the men and women who represent today’s car culture.

“It’s been hectic, terrifying and amazing — a really surreal experience,” Dave Kaye said.

Please keep it real/natural guys. I wish you the best from Toledo! Keep doing what you love, and have fun.
