Nice one Rob
That's a proper collection
I like the show and glad to hear the quality is as good as it looks on T/V.

Hi Rob,
Congratulations on the wedding of your boy, you must be very proud.
Funnily enough I'm watching Counting Cars right this minute!
The cars in Danny's collection look very interesting and varied. It's good to know that the workmanship is as good in person as it looks on the TV.
Andrew.

Hi Rob
Congratulations on your son's wedding.
Great idea calling into The Count's museum; love the Caddy and Chevy? Gasser? but all look incredible.
Have a great trip.

Was properly impressed with how they made the cars look & the custom paintwork was amazing up close, very talented painters.

Cheers Nige, Count’s & wedding was brilliant experience.
As we were on a car guys mission, I’d heard that you could drive & see where they filmed the Fast & Furious house where Vin Diesel as Toretto lived & the sandwich bar he was supposed to have run in the first film (which is a small corner shop in the same street). So we hired a car & did a marathon 700 mile round trip to Echo Park in LA to find it.
Apparently it’s a magnet for fans of the film and this Viper wrapped like the Supra in the film turned up as we did, great photo opportunity.
He’ll of a drive though ..

700 miles! Nice one Rob; glad you found the landmarks. Great photos and instantly recognisable.
