4On September 5th through the 8th Albany Rods & Kustoms will be hosting the 25th Adirondack Nationals. The event will be held at New York’s breathtaking Lake George, nicknamed the “Queen of American Lakes.”EventArt

Lake George is located at the south eastern base of the Adirondack Mountains. “The Adirondacks” as the region is referred to is a swathe of land untouched by urban sprawl and modern industrialization. Boasting over 2,000 miles of hiking trails, 3,000 lakes and ponds, and a busy network of water channels–this is an area of distinguished American Beauty.

Special Guest

This year “The Count” from History Channel’s Counting Cars will be in attendance. Danny Koker aka “The Count” is the owner and operator of “Counts Kustoms” in Las Vegas, Nevada.

He spent his adolescent years living between Cleveland and Detroit. The Count is a self-taught mechanic hailing from a family of Ford Motor Company Employees. He is known for his distaste in newer vehicles and generally rejects offers to work on them. You’ll probably catch him at the show perusing the lanes and putting down offers on cars that he wants to sink his teeth into.BCA9BC27EE02CE43C592E1B77836E_h498_w598_m2
