Orion Custom Car + Motorcycle Show, curated by METALLICA frontman James Hetfield, was part of the inaugural edition of Orion Music + More, the two-day festival created by METALLICA, which took place June 23-24, 2012 at Bader Field in Atlantic City, New Jersey.
Over 300 of the best customs, hot rods, muscle cars and custom motorcycles were on display at the Orion Custom Car + Motorcycle Show inside the festival grounds throughout the weekend. Orion ticket holders were able to check out incredible machines from across the world, including celebrity cars in the Primo Palace like James Hetfield's 1936 Auburn Roadster Slow Burn Kustom and 1937 Lincoln Zephyr Voodoo Priest Kustom by styler and builder Rick Dore. Awards were given out for Best in Show for each category: Customs, Hot Rods, Muscle Cars, and Custom Motorcycles. Plus, festival goers could cast their votes for the Fan Favorite.
The second annual Orion Music + More is scheduled for June 8-9 at Belle Isle in Detroit, Michigan.
