We just got word that world-renowned car customizer, Boyd Coddington died this morning around 6 am. Although we don't have any details on what caused Coddington's death, we do know that he was in and out of the hospital over the past month. A spokesperson for the Coddington Corporation confirmed his passing earlier today and they'll be releasing a statement soon.

 

wow thats sad...hats off to a great customizer/ builder..

 

When it's your time to go....you go.

 

probably stress related.

If he was that uptight and moody on camera, imagine how bad it was off camera.

 

wow that is pretty shocking. the car ill remember him most by , is the 67 vette he did.

everybody at every hot rod /car show (even 7stock)this year should wear a Hawaiian shirt

 

Grow a beard too. That may be a bit of a stretch though. I've got plenty of Hawaiian shirts.
