Ep 11. Big Truck Custom Combo

Counting Cars is a television show that aired on the History Channel and focuses on the daily activities of a Las Vegas-based car restoration and customization business, Count's Kustoms. Season 8, episode 11, titled "Big Truck Custom Combo," features the team at Count's Kustoms working on some of their biggest projects yet.

The episode starts with Danny "The Count" Koker and his team at Count's Kustoms being approached by a couple who want to take their semi-truck and turn it into a custom RV. The couple explains that they want to be able to take their truck on long trips and have all the comforts of home while on the road. Danny is excited about the project, and the team gets to work right away.

One of the first things they do is strip the semi-truck down to its bones. They start by removing the cab and then the sleeper, which will be replaced by the RV-style living space. The team goes to work fabricating a custom camper shell that will fit on the back of the truck. The camper shell has all the amenities that the couple had asked for, including a full kitchen, bathroom, and sleeping space.

While working on the semi-truck, the team at Count's Kustoms also takes on the challenge of customizing a 1956 Ford F100 truck. The owner of the truck wants a "rat rod" look, which means that the truck will have a weathered, rusty appearance. The team at Count's Kustoms starts by cutting out the rusty parts of the truck and then fabricating new metal pieces to fit. The team then works on giving the truck a unique paint job that will ensure it stands out on the road.

There are a few challenges throughout the episode, including fitting the massive new camper shell onto the back of the semi-truck and working out some kinks in the truck's electrical system. However, the team at Count's Kustoms are able to work through these issues and get both projects completed on time.

When the couple comes to pick up their newly customized semi-truck, they are thrilled with the transformation. The inside of the truck looks like a comfortable, high-end RV, with all the amenities they had asked for. The team takes them through all the features of the truck, showing off the custom kitchen, bathroom, and sleeping space. The couple is so happy with the finished product that they immediately begin planning their next big road trip.

The episode ends with the finished 1956 Ford F100 truck being unveiled to the owner. The team at Count's Kustoms has done an incredible job of giving the truck a unique look that fits the owner's style perfectly. The owner is thrilled with the finished product and is excited to take it out on the road.

Overall, "Big Truck Custom Combo" is a great episode of Counting Cars that showcases the incredible talent of the team at Count's Kustoms. The episode is full of exciting challenges, creative problem-solving, and stunning transformations, making it a must-watch for car enthusiasts and fans of the show alike.
