Danny Koker and Erick Burton joined the show to unveil one of the more unusual builds in the custom vehicle world: a Tesla Cybertruck finished in mirror-polished chrome and fitted with ballistic-rated armored glass. Danny Koker, known for decades of custom car and motorcycle work and his role on Counting Cars, and Erick Burton, who developed the armored glass technology behind the project, joined Sean Kelly on the Digital Social Hour to break down how the build came together.
The conversation moves from the origin story of the mirrored Cybertruck concept, through live tests of the armored glass against gunfire, and into a broader discussion of custom vehicle design, security, and where Cybertruck culture is headed.
