James Hetfield made his first public appearance after checking into a rehabilitation clinic last September .
Earlier this month it was announced that the legendary Metallica would participate in a classic and vintage car show at the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles. The event took place last Thursday, the 30th, and Hetfield, who donated ten of his customized cars, was in attendance.
The exhibition, titled Reclaimed Rust: The James Hetfield Collection , featured the singer's following cars: Voodoo Priest, based on a 1937 Lincoln Zephyr; an Auburn called Slow Burn; a Delahaye inspired by a 1934 Packard; Aquarius, a 1936 Ford called Iron Fist; a purple 1956 Ford F-100 pickup truck; and three cars from the manufacturer Rick Dore: Black Pearl, a customized 1948 Jaguar; Grinch, a 1952 Oldsmobile; and Skyscraper, a 1953 Buick Skylark.
James' return to the stage is scheduled for March 28th, when the band has a benefit event for the All Within My Hands in San Francisco, California.
Photos and videos from fans (of cars and Metallica) who attended the event were shared on social media. See some of them below.
