Daniel “Danny” Koker is a man who has many talents and passion. Born on January 5, 1964, in Cleveland, Ohio (per IMDB), a coker spends his childhood in Detroit and grows in a car lovers’ family. His father, Daniel Koker Sr., is a fan of cars, composers, musicians, and singers (per count’s kustoms) who work with big names like Foggy River Boys and Clarence Lavaughn “Cl” Franklin. Before getting the advantage of the TV with the hit program “Counting Cars” (and the appearance of guests in the history channel “Pawn Stars” and “American Restoration”), Danny Koker plays the Cool Cool Rider in “Saturday Fright at The Movies,” the theme Vampire shows that at KFBT Channel 33 Las Vegas from 1990 to 2000.
As we said, Danny Koker is a Swiss Army celebrity knife. He is not just an actor who does not make doubts playing vampires riding motorbikes on the TV screen; Danny “The Count” is also a member of the founder and singer of Count’s 77, a hard rock band based in Vegas who released their debut album in 2014. However, Danny is a bona fide lover above all. He is a self -taught mechanic who started Count’s Kustoms, a world -famous car customization shop, as a hobby before planting it to a $ 10 million restoration factory as it is today.
Some people in Vegas bet with chips, but such gambling insects rarely bite Danny Koker. Instead, he bet on cars, motorbikes, or anything with wheels that deserve a place in the great ranks of automotive. In the event, “Counting a car,” what made Danny unique was how he succeeded in pulling out the driver who was not suspicious and made a cash offer for their trip, be it vintage muscle cars, exotic European, or motorbikes that could be collected.
Building his tiring knowledge about the muscle car that was raised by detroit, luxury cars, and classic forgotten, the Danny team at Count’s custom was completed. The only problem is that Danny tends to fall in love with his projects so that he has a hobby to keep the vehicle or bicycle and add it to his development that continues to develop -what happens more often than you think. “I am really addicted. I think I need an intervention,” Koker said in the 2013 Globe and Mail Interview. “I like all types of cars – they can be anything ranging from street cars to muscle cars to exotic cars to sports cars to cars to cars classic.”
