The Detroit Bros., Dave and James Kaye, will bring a little Motor City madness to the TV screen courtesy of their Discovery Channel show,
Motor City Motors.
The
Detroit Bros. are going prime time. Brothers Dave & James Kaye, along with the man who fostered their fabricating skills, their father John, are the hosts of a new Discovery Channel show called
Motor City Motors. It will be produced by Thom Beers, who is the creator and executive producer of Discovery’s popular
Deadliest Catch as well.
In each episode, the brothers have five days to assemble a team of builders and specialists to create hot rods and custom motorcycles. And anybody familiar with the Detroit Bros. knows we’re not talking glorified theme bikes here. Expect more of a Monster Garage-type theme from the Detroit crew who are known for producing more Mad Max-style, industrial-edged motorcycles.
In the first episode, the brothers make a drag racer out of a 1926 Model T Gasser. After chopping the roof and frame, a Ford 521 cubic-inch Holbrook motor with 1000 hp is mounted in the four-door sedan.
The Detroit Bros. are all about building industrial-strength machines.
James Kaye has studied under metal master and famed custom bike builder,
Ron Finch, and has been classically trained as a metal sculptor at the College for Creative Studies. His brother Danny brings a solid business sense courtesy of a Finance degree from the University of Michigan Business School. But don’t expect a bunch of OCC-type shenanigans from these guys. The brothers are what you’d expect from the Motor City, straight-talking and street tough.
Motor City Motors premieres on the Discovery Channel Monday, Dec. 28, at 10 p.m. ET/PT.
