The Holden 186 Red Motor powered an entire nation. Taxis, police cars, family sedans, utilities, and commercial fleets across Australia—all relied on this inline six that refused to quit. Yet today, it's almost forgotten.
This automotive documentary tells the complete story of the Holden 186 Red Motor—how Australian engineers at GM Holden designed an inline six specifically for the brutal conditions of the Australian Outback. From post-war Australia's need for homegrown engines that could survive heat, dust, and vast distances, to the evolution of the Red Motor family that preceded it.
Discover why the 186 became the workhorse of Australian transportation in the 1960s and 70s. Learn how seven main bearings, conservative tuning, and simple serviceability made it the engine mechanics could rebuild with basic tools. And find out how this forgotten inline six earned legendary status in taxis that ran 300,000 miles and police cars that never let officers down.
This documentary explores the Australian automotive history that built trust in local manufacturing—the inline six engine that balanced power, durability, and simplicity better than anything before or since. From its role in motorsport to its quiet dominance in everyday Australian life, this is the untold story of the engine that proved Australia could engineer solutions for Australian conditions.
Whether you love automotive history, vintage machinery, or the industrial era that powered a nation, this is the complete story of how one engine shaped Australian transportation and why it deserves to be remembered.
Welcome to our channel. We grew up fascinated by the machines our grandfathers worked on — the engines they maintained, the factories they built, the sounds they never forgot. Now we tell their stories.
From the unmistakable scream of old Detroit Diesel engines to the quiet power of forgotten industrial marvels, we document the machines that built America. These aren't just mechanical relics. They're the legacy of generations who shaped a nation with their hands, their skill, and their sweat.

Our documentaries explore the history of Detroit Diesel, vintage American engines, and the industrial era that transformed everyday life. We dive deep into the engineering and craftsmanship behind these legendary machines — the design choices, the innovations, and the people who made them work. Whether it's the Detroit Diesel sound that echoes through old truck stops or the steam engines that powered entire industries, we bring these stories back to life.
We believe the industrial revolution in America wasn't just about factories and production lines. It was about people — mechanics who knew their engines by sound alone, engineers who solved impossible problems, and workers who built machines that outlasted them by generations. Their ingenuity and grit deserve to be remembered.
Our videos cover everything from screaming Detroit Diesel powerplants to vintage machinery and industrial engines that history almost forgot.
Through cinematic storytelling and careful research, we explore American history the way it sounded, felt, and ran — one engine at a time.
If you're a fan of history documentaries, diesel engines, or the legendary American machines that powered a nation, you've found the right place.
