Boyd Codding jr. wheels
I am trying to contact them and they don't respond to e-mails. The phone number listed is also bad. Does anyone know if they are still in business or how to get hold of them?

IIRC, Boyd Coddington Wheels are a separate business venture from the Hot Rod shop. At one point a few years ago, Boyd declared bankruptcy in the wheel business. The wheel business is back now, but I wouldn't be suprised to hear that there are financial issues with that part of his "empire".
Maybe Duane is running that part too and everyone is leaving....

I work for a major tire dealer and everytime we have to order wheels from them it takes anywhere from 6-8 weeks to special order, And that's when it's on priority.... Chris works for Boyd Coddington Wheels and from what I hear does not run the joint. I will try to get a number from them for B.C.Forged. We usually fax order forms to them so we don't do to much talking with them.

I wonder if they will show the raid on "American Hot Rod?"
Anyone notice Mike in the opening video on the website? Of course, he was recently fired for designing wheels for Foose on the side.
They wheels and the Hot Rod shop may, indeed, be different companies. However, in every single episode of "American Hot Rod" they show an exterior shot of the shop with all the wheel rims sitting outside. Pallets, and Pallets of them. They also showed Mike designing custom wheels so they are run out of the same place if they are different companies.
