Combining the best of old and new, Boyd Coddington's "Sportstar" is
an exercise in engineering and design. Penned by Chip Foose, the
Sportstar combines elements of classic Ford hot rods with more
contemporary sportscars. Wearing an all-metal body,
custom-fabricated frame and a machined billet suspension, this is a
true one-off that took over two years to build. Power comes from
the 32-valve 1UZ 4.3-liter V8 engine and is routed through an
automatic transmission. Getting that power to the ground is a set
of 17-inch Boyd Coddington wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich T/A Radials
measuring 205mm up front and 315mm in the rear. The body is
finished in Boyd's Red paint and is complemented by a matching red
leather interior with a Boyd steering wheel. From the Petersen
Museum collection.
