''American Hot Rod'' is a reality television series that originally aired between 2004 and 2008 on The Learning Channel and Discovery Channel. The unique series documented the crew at Boyd Coddington's car shop and their personal struggles to build hot rods and custom vehicles. It was made on location at Coddington's hot rod and wheel shop in La Habra, California. Many employees went to work for ''Overhaulin'''s Chip Foose, a former partner of Coddington, for a more relaxed environment. Even Boyd's own son could not work there anymore. Custom built cars built during the series included the "Alumatub", 61 Impala Bubbletop, 63 Chevy Corvette Stingray and a 42 Woodie. In July 2007, the shop made an Elvis Tribute Car, a modified 1957 pink Cadillac, sponsored by Reese’s. Boyd Coddington died in February 2008. His shop closed its doors for the final time on Friday June 20, 2008.〔(Boyd Coddington Wheels is Still Rolling On )〕 ==Hot Rod Shop== *Boyd Coddington.
