    Most people in Las Vegas bet with chips, but Danny “The Count” Koker bets with cars. This Sin City legend walks, talks and breathes cars and bikes. When he sees a car he wants, he will do whatever it takes to get his hands on it-including making on-the-spot cash offers to unsuspecting owners. On the HISTORY series Counting Cars, Danny and his team restore, customize and sell cars in a hurry, scrambling to keep their Las Vegas shop in the black. From classics to exotics, from hotrods to choppers, Danny and the crew of Count’s Kustoms will stop at nothing to find and flip the greatest rides of all time.

      I've suggested it before, Danny needs to work with Hot Wheels, Matchbox, etc to sell replicas of these masterpieces. I would love to be able to collect these cars with my son. Or better yet, work with a company like Franklin mint and sell scaled replicas. It'd be awesome to have some of these on my desk/shelf at home

    Everyone has an opinion but I have this analogy. If you are into vintage video games and you bought an Atari 2600 would you tear the guts out and put in the latest Play Station 5? Of course not. The whole attraction of the vintage video game is that it is something that takes you to a certain point it time. For it's poor graphics, glitchy program and simplistic controllers, it is cool. I own several old cars including a 68 Charger. A couple have been hopped up a little with cams, intakes and headers, but I keep them mostly stock because it lets me feel how they drove when they were new. I was too young to own any of these cars new but now I'm living what the original owners felt.

  • @hippie564
    @hippie564 3 роки тому

    I would've done a 440 engine and placed a Holley 'Projection' injection set up and an electronic ignition { if the owner was worried about dependability etc} instead of a computer controlled engine and transmission - Don't get me wrong, I know the 'new' 392 engine is a great runner for sure, but at the end of the day EVERYTHING goes up for sale someday and that car will be worth more, way more with an original era performance engine in it instead of using the 392. Lol...Danny probably had that 392 engine, tranny and CPU 'laying around' his shop! I know I used to have hot engine set ups 'laying around ' my shop!!! Idk.... That was just my opinion. I guess I'm just an old Mopar purist. I have a 1970 Sport Fury with a 383 / automatic car with 3.55 posi's I'm currently restoring for a friend.

    • @dmadd4643
      @dmadd4643 4 роки тому +3

      Sure, the purists out there will balk at this, but its THEIR dream. I'd be the same way if I ever got my 58 Plymouth Fury - I'd want the automatic trans as well (Mostly because I just don't feel comfortable with manual, and if you don't feel comfortable driving something, I say you shouldn't be driving it). Let them live their dream.
