They return with a charge of humor, nostalgia and love. Johnson brothers and cousins visit fathers to hear story of the beginning of their business. We have to go back to the 1960s in New Orleans, Louisiana, when their fathers built the business together. Carl, Sean, Barry, Hank, Jackie and Jamal were young, had a dream and wanted to make it happen, wanted to start own company, which would deal with the service, polishing and sale of beautiful American cars. In order to make their dreams come true, they had to make some money first, and listening to Rock´n´Roll, Soul or sports would not help them. Everyone had own job, and tried to earn money. Carl and Sean worked at a car shop nearby, Barry at an ice cream parlor, Jamal at a gas station and Jackie, yeah Jackie was just a dude, wearing a suit, a hat, sexy ladies and making money with music in clubs. The content of their lives was music, baseball, basketball, football, cars, women, enjoys life, but they never forgot to go to church. Parents were strict but proud of their sons. After earning money, they bought an old land with a car service, renovating it after work, they buy cars for little money, renovating them and selling them in luxury condition. There were various problems with competition, with licensing, women, money, but what would the Johnson Brothers not cope with? They proved the impossible, beat the competition to the fullest, which wanted to destroy them, cars began to sell in bulk, love overcame everything
