Danny comes across as a down to earth guy, passionate about his craft, yet not full of himself. Very personable, regular guy vibe. That's the coolest thing about him.
I'm glad things came together for the Count, I've really enjoyed his shows, good man!
Oh yeah! And he's a Motor City boy !
Pawn Stars ✨ certainly helped Danny get some much needed attention!
Check out his CZcams channel
He works way harder than anyone gives him credit for. Genuine guy with staying power!
Plus what he builds is actually functional unlike OCC. Everyone crapped on Jesse James but his builds are beautiful but also comfortable.
I met Danny at a car show a few years back, he seems like one of the nicest guys out there. He loves what he does and he loves his fans of the show.
Danny is the best. He is one of the few who didn’t let the fame of having a show go to his head. Stay humble brother!
Fantastic man he always comes across as someone who has pride in every job he does, and he feels truly blessed with the reaction of his customers!
I live in Vegas. I can tell you with out a doubt that Counts Customs is one of the BEST places to visit, when you're in town.
First of all, it's free to go look around.
Just sign in the guest book and your free to check things out!
Just be respectful and don't film, if they're filming an episode.
:)
I’ve been there a few times. It’s a great experience, I’ve had fun every time! The first time I went I met Roli, really cool dude.

Psalms 103:2-3 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;/Inspiration+ Praise be in him! Rejoice to our Lord! He loves us more than we could fathom, more than we could ever hope to repay. Therefore give thanks and rejoice in Him each and every day, for in forgiveness we may find our spirits cleansed. God not only heals our bodily diseases but also cuts out what is cancerous to the soul, or toxic to our faith. Let Him in, and rejoice His works!/Prayer+ Lord my Almighty Father, I praise Your name and Your works, Your ability to work through me and into my soul. Cleanse again my heart Lord, by forgiving me of my sins and temptations, for this is the debt to You I can never repay, but for which I will be thankful always. Amen.
@@SeektheLordsface wtf?

I was not aware of his earlier tv hosting gig!... his personality on tv seems to be what he's like in real life..his eclectic car collection always surprises! Thanks Dennis👍
He seems like a very genuine guy. Enjoy the show, watch it all the time and the work they do is amazing! If I could afford it I would have them do up my gto! Maybe one day if I hit the lotto!
As a pro metal-botherer (armour)
This bloke turns out some really high-end stuff!
I would love to visit when I cross the Atlantic!
Like armour the most important element to perfect is proportion,
and Danny clearly has the eye!
Mad respect. 🇬🇧⚒️🇺🇲
Love Danny! He's so chill, honest & what you see is what you get kinda guy. Counting cars is a great show. I'm not a bike guy but they make some neat 2 wheelers
This is old, he's built many many custom cars now too, check out his YT
@@THRASHMETALFUNRIFFS Yeah I watch the show Counting Cars time to time. He's built some nice ones. Good vibes from him & his guys. Def entertaining with Horny Mike in the mix lol
I fukin loved The Count Cool Rider. I'd fight to stay awake to watch his show. Some of the most Fondest Memories I remember as a kid Growing Up in Vegas
Danny does a good show and helps the veterans out,i really enjoy his program.
One of my personal favorite teams they do great work. 🍻🤟🤟 gotta love those choppers.
Theses boys are cool with old school cool love it thanks Dennis
Awesome video. Hope Danny keeps his show going a few more years . Counts Customs is one of the best shows on The History Channel….
Danny just seems like he is genuinely the coolest guy.
Sugar Bear front ends make the chopper a smooth ride.
Love this guys show. Seems like a normal down to earth dude. Big heart. Very genuine.
If you talk to Koker's employees, past and present, they will tell you Danny is "what you see on TV, honest, compassionate, fair..and great to work for.."
Good enough for me, a long time fan!
Nice. I rode all those roads while I was living there . Love that Pioneer Saloon.
Growing up in las vegas nevada I use to watch Danny every weekend when I was a kid and he was known as count cool rider
He’s the best! One of the only ‘reality’ shows I watch and enjoy.
Danny you are awesome 😎. Wife and I hope and Pray that counting cars has a new season. Everything you do is awesome 👍🤜🤛💥💥
An intelligent, capable, and personable man he seems to be.
Those bikes riding through the desert are living Dave Mann painting thanks, see you soon
Damned if that wasn't exactly what I was thinking when they showed that low end shot!!
I Love Danny’s mind set
My Classic Car
The Count!!!
is a Amazing Artist to say the least.
Ground and Pound....
I remember watching count cool rider when I was a kid back when I was living in Las Vegas and it's still excellent today. 😀👍🧛♂️
I went to Danny's shop back when it was Evil Twin choppers long ago
hey brother my mom and i watched your count cool rider days when she was around great memories....
As a kid I remember those horror shows-born and raised here in Vegas they used to come on sat nights. Like old 50’s movies
Danny may have gotten his idea about the coffin from one Sir Graves Ghastley, (RIP) seen every Saturday night, if I recall, in the Motor City, where Danny's from... lol
I rode motorcycles since I was 15 I'm 65 now I've had 69 triumph 650 my first bike a 71 mph 900 and finally my love a 98 superglide i miss riding I injured my knee at work but I'm getting that feeling I've been missing a long time I'm getting knee replacement hopefully this year I believe with the right bike with the lower seat height I can ride again now trying to afford one , besides that I watch every episode of counts customs it makes my day I love bikes and cars grew up reading every issue of easy rider magazine not including having some cool cars a 71 SS Nova a 72 Lt1 Camaro Hurst 4 speed 350 and 365 rear 780 holly dual pumper with electric fuel pump. I hope some new episodes of counts customs still shows
Counting Cars is a awesome show
So he's the Elvira of customizers. Haha. ;)
Nice video. Thanks for sharing!
She was actually on one of the Counting Cars Episodes haha
He built stuff for Elvira...
@@jasonsobol32 i would build elvira anything she wants and for free i love her
No Elvira is way way way better looking and she has better hair too
What a great guy and great story, live your dreams and they will come true with hard work and good people around you
Loving these old chopper segments!
WOW! Mate, this is cool! Footage of The Count without his trademark biker bandana on. Yeah! His tv show airs back here in Melbourne, Australia on Channel 73 (Mate) But they keep mixing up the episodes. So we’d have to be months and months behind I reckon. But I love his teams custom work. Very cool indeed.👍🇦🇺😁☮️
I love Danny and the guys on the show. He's so intelligent, has multiple businesses and talents. I'm hoping someday he comes back to Ontario Canada and this time he books his band to play in the Toronto area. Or casino Rama
Firstly I'm a Bike guy , I'm lucky I have the right Trade to build Bikes and Cars , Love your work , and I do relate to every thing you said at the end those eyes made me laugh
What a cool salt of the earth kinda guy. Just building some bikes & rods, awesome. A man living his dream not hurtin no one.
My favorite show you rock count!
Love the Count !!!
Really enjoyed!!!!

Your story is still being told Mustie,I am enjoying every minute of it,Thank You.

Didn't Danny have a radio show in Las Vegas? I can recall The Count years ago when passing through on my way north.
Danny. What an awesome bloke!
Sugar Bear front ends are the best made, by far, very functional and they look sick as hell...✌🏻🇺🇸
Beautiful country 👍🏻
Danny looks a lot younger in this video. Must have been recorded a long time ago.
Shot back in 2004. We all looked younger then!
Always wondered how it began great job Danny
Hey, cool segment man, fun throwback! Danny's got his own YT series now and has a restaurant and his band plays and all kinds of stuff.
Back in the day around the time that cable access was on he had a little corner shop up the street from me in Vegas where he was building those HotRod Caprice cop cars and I just walked in with a starter for my Toyota 4x4 V6 3.0 in hand after learning it's some weird middle of the intake mounting and asked if he could help me out and he put it on right there on the spot! He's just a super cool nice guy!
Cadillac's Northstar engine had its starter located underneath the intake manifold. I saw a prototype on our shipping dock, headed to our Engineering Garage, (Hydra-Matic) at Willow Run. After they were put into production, I was IN the Garage, one afternoon shift, nosing around, while pulling chips & rubbish for Material Handling. One of the mechanics there told me he could change one out in 20 minutes. Well, they did have the tools/facilities, and the skillset needed to DO it... lol
@@bobhoffman5581 Interesting, those NorthStars were pretty popular and powerful if I recall
Love Kounts Kustomz
Thats right. A properly made long bike is a great all day ride.
Love the bikes,,, love the cars,,,, love the show,,,, but most of all love the great team you have. 👹☠👯♂️🦇🕸🏎🏍🚖🚘🎤🎤🎸🥁👹
If you're ever in Las Vegas and want to ride in one of the most beautiful places you can ride a motorcycle head an hour North of LV to the Valley of Fire. You'll be happy you rode there !
I even got married near The Cabins.
They were so young
We all were once.
Last of the OGs left around.
Awesome
Danny is a cool guy, great man 👍💪🤘👊
I love those ls bikes. My absolute favorites
Nice video and a Thumbs Up !
The reason he is successful is he is true to who he is , no b.s. respect ! thats what he gives there for thats what he gets 👍👍
It's beautiful Box beautiful cars I really enjoyed the show
Somebody tell George Lynch that Koker starts with a "K", not a "C".
Seems like a great guy always happy
Get to da choppa!!!
Choppas, plural... lol
I love classic car
A rare hot-rod ,chopper, hard-rock dude ...wish he was my neighbor !
Danny the best
It's weird because I am generally not a humongous fan of the Naughty Aughties (more commonly known as the 2000s) but this however is a one of a kind exception to that rule!
I love it as such. But than again I love anything with a wild, sleazy gothic biker-feel time period irregardless!
Filmed a few years back no doubt, the chopper craze has crashed a while ago and Danny has some grey in that beard and hair now, but hey it happens to the best of us.
Shot back in 2004.
I had a 69 xlch with single down tube frame girder front end, z bars, poco tank spray bomber for easy paint repair. Drag pipes and all wiring in frame. The bolts were replaced with Allen head bolts so I could carry tools with me. 10' tire to tire and stainless bicycle bell miss my scooter.
That 59 caddy 🤤
better than the tuttles two wheel shuttle lol
I love riding but can't do it anymore have a bad knee and heard to many horror stories about knee replacements but love to see everyone riding know of a cheap trike I might be interested
... Danny Koker, the Count, is the son of Danny Koker, the gospel pianist with the Cathedrals.
The best thing about count is he builds cars that people can actually afford
would like to see CK's build a trike. solid rear axle, wide back tires.
Love your bikes wish I could afford one I'd have a dozen
Have an 06 Big Dog K9 with a 300 rear tire. LUUUV my bike!!! Super ez to handle and looks great.
I would like to see something Danny put together himself before he had a whole team of craftsmen to do the actual work for him.
That was a little creepy at the end. Great guy great story👍
Those long bikes are great to ride. As long as you don't make any turns.
I like bike and cars
Danny's got an eye for cool.
I love you Danny!
Great job Danny. You ready to build me a Camaro?

I love this show. I have a car or cars I think he should check out. It would make such a good show. And away for him to make some good money.
Once you get past the maudlin corny Count thing you realize Danny seems like a nice honest dude that has style.
Danny has a beautiful soul. I pray he knows JESUS. ♥️👍🙏
