Not to be disrespectful....but who?

^Coddington was a famous hot rod builder whose shop was featured in the reality television show American Hot Rod.

He was a pioneer of the clean sleek look.

I'm not finding any info anywhere else. It's not on his website, american hot rod website or anywhere else on Google so far.

Wow, that's too bad. He was a major hot rodding figure, and he and his son were doing work with Victory on their cruiser bikes--and producing some nice stuff.

[CrewChief]

Great street rodder who really helped usher in the modern street rod look.

God's Speed Boyd.
