COUNTING CARS Returns Tuesday, June 23 at 9:00 PM ET/PT
In this season of COUNTING CARS Danny Koker takes the team deep into the world of Rock & Roll and continues to push the crew to build the baddest rides around. Count's Kustoms is hired by the family of rock & roll icon Les Paul to build a one-of-a-kind custom bike to be unveiled at a huge event commemorating the 100th anniversary of the legendary guitarist's birth. And the rock rolls on with a restoration for Dokken's legendary guitarist George Lynch. Meanwhile Kevin lays down the law as Danny's car addiction grows and he keeps falling in love with his restorations rather than selling them - if he doesn't flip some cars, the money will soon dry up. The crew pull together to help Shannon build a secret restoration as an anniversary surprise for his wife. And Horny Mike, tired of playing second BANANA to GOLDEN BOY Ryan, tries to prove that behind all the hair gel and horns is an artist every bit as talented as Ryan, by building a ride that is part eco-friendly, part green demon, and all Horny Mike.

New Series LEEPU & PITBULL Premieres Tuesday, June 23 at 10:00 PM ET/PT
HISTORY® follows master mechanic Steve PitBull and renowned Bangladeshi car designer, who is named Leepu, as they transform heaps of metal into a cash-producing business venture. Each week a customer with a beloved clunker, great story and small budget asks this odd couple to convert their bucket of bolts into a cool custom car. In this high-risk and high-octane undertaking, it's up to Leepu & Pitbull to turn their differences into inspiration...as they MacGuyver fixes to build winning wheels, satisfy the customer and rev up the riches.
