Counts Customs

[AntiHeightPunk]

Anyone see the newish show on History called counts customs? Guy is a bit much for me....but he seems to know his stuff about cars and is a real car guy. Im not a big fan of top gear....so finally a show for gearheads that doesn't suck.

 

[nckissfan]

I watched two episodes last night. Not a bad show. He is spun off of Pawn Stars, he is their "car" guy that comes and looks at cars people bring in to sell.

 

[AntiHeightPunk]

yeah im a big fan of the pawn stars and american pickers, cool classic cars and a guy who you can tell really loves the cars over the money.

 

[Steve@TF]

ill check it out but pawn stars is so phony and set up its not even funny. so who knows with this new show. i can only imagine it would be of the same ilk

I'm a fan of Pawn Stars and I'm always interested when they get Count to restore something. I've seen some of the new show, I like it, he seems like a nice guy that loves all things with wheels.

Seen a couple episodes. Decent so far. His go to mechanic is a nut.

I watched it with low expectations and it wasn't half bad. I think some of the stuff is staged like when cruising around and a one of a kind hotrod drives by out of no where and he gives chase to go talk to the guy.

 

[Sn8kebitten]

I think it's a pretty awesome show so far. And if I'm not mistaken, the hot rod with the two blown motors on it is the same car I read about in a magazine a little while back that a guy used two 4.6 DOHC Cobra motors in. I wish they would've talked more about that car

I live down the street from his shop. You would never even know it's there. No real signs or anything.

Seen a lot of cool shit come out of there.

 

[robraySVT]

bad ass car, but not sure how you would see over the engines. They look to be right in the line of sight.

 

[mvr]

i am pretty sure his show is set up.. however most "reality" shows these days are.

i was a fan of that show fast n loud that was on most of this summer on discovery.

 

[doughboyracing]

I saw the two episodes last night, too. Not bad. But I agree Fast & Loud is prob better.

I wonder if the pawn stars get a cut from spin offs.
