Norwood, Where Legends Were Born, Documentary Movie DVD

Discover the untold story of Norwood Assembly, where legendary cars like the Camaro and Firebird Trans Am were born. Through the voices of the people who built them, this documentary celebrates innovation, perseverance, and American manufacturing.

Featuring exclusive interviews with Jay Leno and Burt Reynolds and rare never-before-seen footage, this compelling documentary uncovers the remarkable story of one of America's most influential factories—the birthplace of the Camaro and Firebird Trans Am, and the inspiring stories of its workforce.

We've been gathering footage, researching archives, and interviewing former employees that worked at the historic General Motors Norwood Assembly Plant to tell one of the most important stories in automotive history; the story of Norwood, Where Legends Were Born.

This historic factory is most notable for being the birthplace of the legendary Chevrolet Camaro and the iconic Pontiac Trans Am, but it lead MANY firsts in the history of automotive production. It was the first assembly plant that GM built from the ground up outside of Michigan, the first to employ robotic welding, the first to produce cars for General Motors 24 hours a day, and in 1972 it lead the longest industrialized strike of any industry at 174 days, pitting the tenacious workforce against a hardened corporation.

The workforce at Norwood helped produce cars that appeared everywhere from Hollywood to Main Street, USA. Its workers changed an industry. Its cars changed the world.
