The History Channel's "Counting Cars," a reality show featuring Danny "The Count" Koker and his team as they restore classic autos and motorcycles, returns with a season premiere on Tuesday.
The new season will launch with a one-hour premiere featuring a special job--a "his and hers" restoration of a 1970 Plymouth Road Runner and a 1970 Dodge Coronet, said a History Channel press release. Another hour-long special in the season will have Danny organizing a car show to unveil a 1973 Boattail Riviera with an eye-catching Count's Kustoms paint job.

"The A-Team" GMC Van
