Well that's not the original. That's the Little Coffin II. It was built as a tribute to Dave Stuckey. I don't recall the builder's name off hand. Though I believe it's outta Missouri. Here's a pic of it, and a pic of what's left of the original, which is in Starbird's hall of fame museum in Afton, Ok.

 

Here's the original, in it's current state.

 

That looks like crap now..............

 

Seeing the original all 'billetized" is the ultimate slap in the face to all that we hold dear...

 

Hey Django your right everytime when I see it in the Museum I almost break out crying. If I would have known that a Lil Koffin clone would be at Starbirds in Wichita, I would have been there. Does any body know the owner? I'm working on a Lil Koffin theme for this years Stray Kat 500 and I would like to see it in Dewey.

Hey JimC hows the family?

Happy Trails,

Mick
