unfortunatly his T.V. show the last couple of years didn't paint him in the best light but those in the know chalk that up to the $$$. he should be remembered as a true innovator who absolutly took car building to the next level. R.I.P. Boyd.

Yeah... He kind of came off as a royal *** who was jealous of guys like Chip Foose's success... BUT he was a real innovator in hot rods.

Rest in Peace Boyd.
