The Real Reason Why Counting Cars Ended
Subscribe for More!
Counting Cars is a reality TV show whose popularity extends beyond the shores of the United States. The series started as the third spin-off of another reality TV show, Pawn Stars. It is filmed in Las Vegas, and it chronicles the activities of the crew at Count’s Kustoms, which is owned by the controversial Danny Koker, a.k.a. The Count.
Following the same format as many other car shows, Counting Cars documents the conflicts and drama between Danny Koker and his team as they restore and modify classic automobiles and motorcycles. And boy, there was a load of drama and bad blood between the cast members. So much drama that several members left the show for various reasons.
Despite the drama, which the fans lived for during its prime, Counting Cars enjoyed great viewership and a good rating. With that success, it ran for ten seasons, from 2012 to 2021. However, no new season has been approved by History Channel after the tenth season, and the fans have been left to wonder why. So, join us as we reveal the real reason why Counting Cars ended.

We visited Vegas in 2021 and while our itinerary was mainly casino related, I made it a point to visit Counts Customs. Nothing in Vegas is free, but Danny opens his business to anyone who wants to tour his facility, for absolutely no charge. Thanks Danny!

Another problem was the 1955 Chevrolet Nomad station wagon. Counting Cars did not complete the project as the customer wanted. The customer ended up taking the car to another shop to have it done as he wanted. Counting Cars was court ordered to pay the bill for doing so.

@mikeheuer1276 6 ай бұрын

The shop and Koker have been sued more than once. One couple wanted a particular year Mustang and were told it wouldn't be a problem. Except, when they went to pick it up, it wasn't the right model. The couple said, "That's not the car we paid for." The response was: "That's the car that you got." Another former customer sued because a car featured on the show didn't run despite the customer paying for it to be fixed up. IN both cases, the shop and Koker (in one of the cases) were named as defendants.

You also might notice Koker never once so much as holds a wrench on that show. I seriously doubt he really has mechanical aptitude, but I could be wrong. I used to watch the show but stopped when they had a member of a heavy metal band "stranded" on the side of the road while riding a stock Vulcan 800 motorcycle. Koker claimed it just got "something sucked up into the carb" and supposedly cleared it. Thing is, that's impossible on that bike with the stock air intake on it. I know because I own a Vulcan 800 and modified its airbox to put in an open-air K&N filter and rejected the carb for more power. @@sergeantmasson3669

I agree, with the polite reservation that there is no accounting for taste. I once had a friend with abominable taste in anything decorative, and he liked a lot of decorations. Turned out the guy was dishonest, which solved the problem of me having to deal with his decorations, but he did have enough sense to keep his car in good repair. Unless Koker's dress and demeanor were stage presentations for effect, one could pretty much look at the guy's personal demeanor and style of dress, and know to expect a pile of crap car in return for your money. They guy never exactly reeked of sincerity. while it is obvious the car industry attracts many very individual and unique people, those that make their own way do so within a context that can be validating and understood. What I understood via the screen was that Koker was a wanna be biker guy who instead choose selling used cars, and pictures himself as somewhat slick when others are concerned.

I watched many episodes but I don't remember them restoring any classic cars to original or even with period correct parts. Some people like resto-mods some like original condition and possibly with some modern safety features. For example, on my 1965 Mustang coupe I put dual reservior power master brake cylinder in place of the single reservoir manual brakes system. It already had original front disc brakes. Now the car is safer and someday can be a daily driver. Even at cars shows the safety upgrades could be appreciated. The late 1965 models had some of the 1966 model features. Also, I can connect the 4 way emergency flasher to my wire harness which also appeared in 1966 and on some late production 1965 models. Nobody really checks the Vin in the local car shows anyway. Restoring cars to original condition brings back good memories to many people, to a time when life seemed simpler.

Favorite car shows currently ... Bitchin Rides, Iron Resurrection, and the Road Kill dudes. Also really like Fantomworks even though it's no longer on the air. (Dan (owner) ended the show himself because filming the show got in the way of the business - gotta respect that.) A new favorite great is Roadworthy Rescues (aka Vice Grip Garage on YT). All of these are on the MotorTrend channel. Pretty much avoid anything on the History channel.

I tried watching a few times but the camera work was so utterly irritating to watch. They CONSTANTLY played with the zoom. Constantly. I just wanted them to point the camera at a car so we could actually look at it. Anyway like I said, I never watched much of it and I'm surprised it was on for as long as it was.

I could never understand why anybody would give these guys a car for restoration. Having spent 30 plus years restoring vintage Ferraris on a pebble beach level, these guys are so far down the food chain that it's laughable. Never seen anything from this shop that even slightly impressed me, they seem like a bunch of tweakers who got a TV show somehow...

@Spiritof_76 5 ай бұрын

Now you're just bragging. There are average people who are into cars who have nowhere near the budget for Pebble Beach cars, much less classic Ferraris. Count's turned out a lot of good looking autos for those into the hot rod, street rod, and rockabilly scene, although they did some very tacky work from time to time. I'd never pay for their work and allow those Count's cross logos on my interior or emblems, and the propensity to drop in a crate small block Chevy bothered me. Your comment smells of snobbery.

@@Spiritof_76 The work they put out is 3rd rate crap, they don't restore the cars, not even close. They do what we used to call "putting a new dress on an old whore" underneath it's still an old whore, they don't have a clue what it takes to actually properly restore a car, any car, be it a classic Ferrari or a late 60's muscle car. Anyone can send a car out for paint and interior work, slap some chrome bits under the hood and pass it off as a restoration, the real talent is a true restoration, something these idiots know nothing about. If you're actually going to defend these bozos you don't have a leg to stand on in this argument, because these fools are so far down the talent ladder that you can't even see them.

Danny has a huge ego and rude guy. I was at his club to watch LA Guns ive kniw most of then since the late 80's Phil invited us to hang out back stage with the group and the Security and Danny stopped us from going back. Phil from LA guns was with us told them it was ok we are friends of his. Well long story short we ended up getting kicked out. We met up with the Guns after the show at a bar down the street and they talked about how poorly they were treated there and will never play there again.

Regardless of all the negativity, it was a great show. Compared to all of the crap on TV, this one was educational and entertaining. We lived vicariously through them. I had the opportunity to meet Danny, and he was more than I had expected. Let's keep in mind that no show/program is flawless because humans are flawed. Greed, jealousy and politics are part of all of our lives. We all have our experiences, points of view and opinions, but at the end of the day, this awesome show survived 10 seasons. That one hell of a feather in anyone's hat!
