Filmed entirely in Guadalajara, Mexico, MEXICANICOS profiles the engineering and creative challenges Martin Vaca and his collaborators encounter in the process of renovating unique and surprising vehicles. All eight episodes of this docu-reality take place at "Vaca Limousines," one of the country's largest conversion workshops, which specializes in creating customized limousines, hearses and hot rods. As long as it has wheels and an engine, no vehicle is off limits for Martin and his team, whose creations include a Boeing 727 converted into a limousine, a giant limo shaped like a vintage ocean liner, and a car in the shape of a chili pepper to promote a local distillery.
Each episode of MEXICANICOS follows the work on each vehicle from beginning to end, from the initial conversation with the client through delivery of the surprising final product. Viewers will witness the renovation of the Mustang Mach 1 belonging to Jesus and Francisco Elizalde, the sons of singer Lalo "El Gallo" Elizalde, who travel to Guadalajara to restore their father's old car; as well as the restoration of the '57 Chevy owned by actor Edgar Vivar, known for his role as Senor Barriga on "El Chavo del Ocho."
Martin Vaca's workshop is famous throughout Mexico for the limousines and hearses it produces. The team has participated in numerous international events in Las Vegas and the prestigious LCT in New York, and U.S. Hispanic audiences will now have a chance to appreciate the creativity of its exclusive restorations.
MEXICANICOS is a production by Discovery en Espanol under the supervision of Michela Giorelli, Discovery's Vice President of Production and Development, and the Executives Producers Rafael Rodriguez and Irune Ariztoy; with the assistance of Drako Media, under the supervision of Gerardo Brandy, in co-production with High Noon Entertainment.
