Behind the Wheel is an extraordinary new series that explores the color, glamour and excitement of land, sea and air machines. Behind the Wheel covers a wide array of fascinating, motorized subjects — the beautiful Wooden Boat Concourse in Lake Tahoe, an artist that translates his passion for automobiles into highly prized bronzes, and the roar of historic race cars through the streets of Palm Springs.
Meet individuals whose lives have been molded and shaped by a passion for building and flying giant model airplanes. Men like Andy Granatelli and his collection of Dusenbergs — or the former airline pilot that lovingly restored an old TWA Constellation. Each week, Behind the Wheel takes viewers on a journey that will delight the eye with its kaleidoscope of beauty, movement and sound.
