Boyd bought the 1941 Pickup at a Good Guys show in Indianapolis, to use it as his shop truck. After purchasing, he added a tilt column and ’40 steering wheel, and he painted the dash and door interiors. He had the seats upholstered, added the headliner, and a Lokar shifter. He then added gauges, installed vintage air, and completely rebuilt the motor. In addition, he lowered the truck, added a power brake unit, and new exhaust system. Finally, he pinstriped the truck and added the lettering to the doors that reads “Boyd Coddington Garage, since 1956”. The shop truck was featured in several episodes of the TLC program “American Hot Rod.”
