Coddington's Boydster II

This new replica retains the classic Cobra looks, but with "the Boyd Coddington touch," as he puts it. The IRS suspension has a machined rear suspension with billet aluminum for that high-dollar street rod statement—no reconditioned production parts here. The frame uses 4-inch round-tube main rails and the front suspension consists of dual A-arm fronts with coilovers. A rolling chassis package with all the trimmings starts at about $40,000, and turnkeys with custom paint and a high-performance big-block V-8 go for $90,000 and up. No, these reproductions don't come cheap, but they're screaming deals compared to the price of the originals.
