He made his name by winning the award "The Worlds Most Beautiful Roadster" at the Oakland Roadster Show.

Bob Villia raced Tim Allen in a Home Inprovement episode also in that car.

Coddington had a HUGE industrial park in OC but lost it all due to bad management and business sense.

Such a loss. He designed such cutting edge Rods.

The yellow car in that episode was a Coddington creation? That's interesting. I always thought it looked like the Plymouth (now Chrysler) Prowler.

Nope. But I saw a beautiful silver Prowler yesterday while at the hospital. It cheered me up.
