Both true greats: Boyd Coddington, and Lil' John Buttera gone but not forgotten

it seems like most of the great ones are passing and the ones that are still with us looks like they are ready to. it also seems like there are not enough to fill the shoes for the ones that die. some of these guys were true artists

I've seen both Boyd's and Lil John's cars. They were more like artists that car builders. Saw Lil John's car run at Indy at the 500. He built a lot more that that killer sedan and drag cars.
