Tru,

Boyd Coddington built street rods here in Calif. for many people and was considered one of the better ones I think. I am not sure but I think he built one for Tim Allen to take to the Okland Roadster Show a few years ago. A few guys here ordered special wheels from him as one offs, for ridiculous prices. Not sure of the whole story, but think he was titling some of his cars illegally and the state closed him down and seized some of the cars. I may be wrong on a lot of this as I never paid a lot of attention to him, since I had nothing to do with street rods. Really the only thiing I have seen of his except on TV was the wheels these guys got. Some of the rest can give you the full story and facts much better.
But since they are talking about a Coddington Show, that may be a completely different Coddington.

Ron
