The husband thinking on how much he needs to pay. Been silent the whole time. 🤣

[@getchasome6230]

Probably 20,000 for a $3000 paint job and a $500 exhaust. (And those numbers DO include labor and overhead)

[@getchasome6230]

@Steven I doubt it got a good paintjob. I mean you really only need a 20 footer for a tv show. And they claimed it cost 20000. That's not what they invested though..

[@paulseibert6046]

She is gonna have to swallow. Lol

[@ProjectRescues]

@@getchasome6230 Thats definitely more than a $3000 paint job.

[@YSFUAE]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@eazyridin7283]

All the guys at Counts Kustoms seem like some of the nicest, honest guys around ! 🤘🏼👍🏼

[@Cobra83.]

I love danny and the guys at CK's i visited a couple years ago and everyone was so friendly and helpful it was unreal

[@SK-pj8mg]

its just lee really?

[@fryloc359]

"Still as fast as it was back in the day" HAHAHAHA!!! Yeah that 240 hp was really fast.

[@WavyFBaby]

3:30 “How do you like that dark, dark wood?” “I love it.”

[@alfonsoalonzo]

if they lowered it a few inches it just to take away the 4×4 ride height it would be cherry in my book

[@187KAH]

She would struggle to get in or out if it was lowered

[@gregzamora9]

I love Danny, he's such a great guy

[@pokerphil1st]

One of the nicest jobs they've done. Really like this one.

[@scots04]

Best bang for your buck c4.

[@edwardreidt1230]

Danny has some great guys and always enjoys watching Counting Cars and the builds they do

[@geniuscommentalert7742]

Corvette C4 ZR1, best pound for pound supercar ever made. Top speed 230mph out the factory.

[@m4bolicious]

I didn’t know gayvetts were super cars ? 😂

[@jeffjackson9679]

I like the ZR1 esp. with that 32 valve V8, but it did not go 230 out of the factory...try more like 180 mph.

[@kysike666]

Where do u get ur infos at a video game dimbass

[@jeffjackson9679]

Like the color, but those rims are too big. Makes it look like a 4X4. Really wish the fad of putting oversized rims on cars would go away allready.

[@frisbe9279]

Buddy have u been to florida in the hood saw a 67 camaro with 25" inch rims i was ready to end it all

[@Excitable101]

agree, classic cars need some meat on them, not these rubber band tires.

[@rockydennis4497]

Sadly..it's form over function..a trend that I just don't get!!!how can a "car guy" not explain that to his clients...oh...I know.....the dollar reigns supreme!!!And if that's the case..just admit it and stop making it (falsely) about the pure love of cars!!!

[@arcraider937]

The work they did was more than the whole car was worth.

[@shepardw4981]

Favorite car they've done

[@zangardo3937]

Santa Claus and Mrs Claus has a nice car.

[@elliottmalone3949]

Beautiful story, love this show so much.

[@jupitertheplanet2030]

It's literally a banshee from GTA VC

[@50subscriberswithonlycomme69]

Gamer detected

[@ProjectRescues]

I thought the same thing!! LOL

[@jbscotchman]

The banshee is based on the Dodge Viper

[@bobbycratchet3958]

This was one of the better episodes as far as finding out more about who Counts Customs is and the why behind the bling.

[@bmf00]

What a beautiful car.

[@Hol-mes]

dumping money into a C4 is about as useful as putting an advance auto spoiler on a civic.

[@rayfox5655]

Looks exactly like a 240 Nissan now. That yellow before was awesome

[@coloradodirtbike5930]

I think some chrome deep dish rims with wide rear tires would of been sick on this.

[@thomashapka3547]

Agreed. I thought the flat black wheels took away from this.

[@georgeryan2071]

Probably charged her $25-30k

[@jimtuna1354]

Yup cars probaly worth 8k

[@Richierich1285]

@@jimtuna1354 87 vette try 1500 to 2k if its clean

[@frisbe9279]

Charged her husband***

[@tltsw]

On a good day clean the car won't bring 3500.00 These Corvettes were the worst gen vettes that GM produced. From 1984 and up to the c5 these cars were a flop.

[@iChubbs_81]

Came out Phenomenal as always

[@kunalagarwal4775]

this car looks like the best car.. ive ever sewn

[@3than861]

I love the ‘88, coolest vette ever

[@jamessheehy576]

Beautiful car went from one extreme to the next awesome good stuff

[@OCT52SPLIT]

Excellent build but they should've swapped the front end and side panels to ZR1 as well.

[@S7Modders]

In edition, the color orange was hightlighted, the quality diference is clear....

[@blessedjuggernaut]

Too high off the ground. That thing will catch air and flip. Should've keep the original style rims and tires on it.

[@motocyclemaverick]

Should have kept the yellow, the yellow was way cooler.

[@crazyjoedavola5430]

Yeah, the universal color for chicken....not cool...at all

[@frisbe9279]

Ive never heard a person say yellow looks good on a car its hated

[@CherokeesJeepLife]

Yellow doesn't belong on anything Automotive. Yellow, the universal color of cowards and poor color choices.

[@johnhalchishick7094]

Come on man I want to hear that exhaust. Coming up with a new dash design for those gauges would be cool

[@m4bolicious]

Off road ready corvette, more ground clearance than the raptor 😅😅

[@bigty4725]

People saying worse gen corvette don’t know much about corvettes lol

[@shawnelsts7256]

Danny needs to get with the times and ditch the head bandanna

[@alexl9334]

Idk i like the yellow but copper is a good throwback to the stingrays

[@virgiljohnson9880]

Love C4's

[@bdayo4406]

Perfecto! Nice work boys.

[@karltorreda8198]

I like the tangerine and the black wings

[@franthevan65]

Beautiful vette my god

[@jahanzaibtube3749]

Respect 👍

[@100CupsColombia]

A kTM fan in the shop

[@raulruizlopez3384]

Man the corvettes no a days look like super cars

[@sahilbagde4112]

1:54 I love that black 😂😂

[@bigelf8235]

Where is roli?

[@matthewandphee3649]

lol WOW. I normally like Danny's cars. But this one not so much. Did they do a lift on it??

[@mattthomas1442]

I never liked the look of the C4s. I don't know they just always looked cheap to me, I can't really describe it.

[@fixing_f_ups6131]

Personally owning a 88 c4. I can say the car feels great all around except for the dash and the center console. Those two feel cheap even though they really aren't.

[@purdue1992jl]

Looks like a door wedge

[@Yes-qe5jn]

What tires are those?

[@waynedrew7074]

I would have painted it Solar Yellow like the 2000 5.9 Dakota R/T

[@MR_slippyfist]

That is the nicest Corvette ever

[@markhellman-pn3hn]

.....as with most corvettes ? most are "garage queens" (nobody takes a corvette to the grocery store)

[@brutebetter9188]

I thought winter tires were soft and sticky. Not summer.

[@revolutionday1]

Definitely not.

[@meettheworld6241]

Good thing you aren't paid to think...

[@Blimpus]

so was the wood dash Hydro dipped?

[@metalguyn]

Needs to be lower and not a corvette.

[@OriginalMomo]

Black roof just doesn’t look good. Should’ve been tangerine also. Plus it will heat up the interior.

[@ScottH.]

Tires are too big.

[@dammitboy9251]

I think silver fox wanted to risk it all and give Danny the "P" 🐱

[@ravjeetraina7756]

Wish it was grey or silver black

[@janakiramarimilli9999]

Great job 👌

[@hoodTreatsIceCream]

I gotta get my cash up I would love for them to work on my van

[@jonmacdonald5345]

Sick van I love the custom paint job!

[@marcaliventialiventi765]

Got rid of my 84 vette and replaced it with a 85 monte carlo ss. Better car easier to work on

[@simonblanco4864]

Whos more cool Richard Rawling Or Danny?

[@evandotterer4365]

You can tell they all hate the c4 corvette 😂

[@vampirebundtcake6448]

"This is the first C4 we've ever done." lol or how about, "It's still just as fast as it was back in the day..." But in the end the owner is very happy and if grandma wants a hot rod, this is a good one for her to have.

[@SK-pj8mg]

yeah but what can they do , its what the customer wants lol

[@clarencejones7916]

More like Halloween nightmare 😬😝😁😆

[@FUNNYSHORTS7119]

Was thinking same thing 🤔 looks like a pumpkin 🎃

[@yourvidia5815]

I feel she’s regretting the old color 😄

[@thezootwo]

Danny should really cut those two threads off his shirt

[@spunn_co]

her nails match car color nice one danny

[@sasnad3]

Looked better in yellow.

[@frankcastle9691]

They restored the worst corvette made.

[@kysike666]

Agreed! There’s a lot of these ones at a junkyard..

[@jessicamyslinski]

love it

[@MrJaime4044]

Count I kind of don't like the way you guys painted all the molding around the car I think that you guys should just left it black or put new black molding on it

[@kenadams3951]

That looks good

[@WonderBread23]

wow

[@vicchavez6570]

Sitting too high

[@tomhertz1614]

Yellow retro original was cooler .

[@vdubwinkie]

Shut up

[@meettheworld6241]

No, it wasn't

[@johnsmithth3318]

Yeah I want to see under the hood. I like the color combination, but what you didn't show was the gas the gas fill up with that spoiler in the way. Also not much on the interior

[@fxexpert4541]

Old looks cooler honestly

[@tanner882]

Nothing like removing original paint on a collectors car 👍

[@S7Modders]

Beautiful story, love this show so much.

[@saarim79]

Wow that a cool car

[@raybusa6086]

The value just went down once u painted a different color and not original

[@jimtuna1354]

What value cars worth 8 grand

[@mattd1999]

That's the beauty of thousands of cheap C4's. You can pretty much do what you want, as the ZR1's & Grand Nationals are the only ones who have any real value. Easily the biggest bang for the buck sports car car out there.
