caddyman Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 (edited) Don't know how many of you guys are car guys...........BUT, Boyd Coddington died at age 63 Wednesday........ WOW, it almost brought a tear to my eye, through the years I have purchased many a wheel he had put his name on.......... A LEGEND in the hot rod world, I'm going to go crack a beer and salute him. Prayers go out to his wife and family... Edited February 29, 2008 by caddyman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmd0346 Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 Man that stinks. I thought his show was silly but I dug his products and his ability to "make" it like he did. On something he loved. He'll be missed for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

banshee30705 Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 yeah I remember watching a show where the crew were divided into teams . Boyd built a car and the other guys built a truck , and they had to drive the cars like 700 miles to the event . Alot of problems for both teams , but if I remember correct Boyd won . I enjoyed his show , he was the man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
