Zs-ondabrain Posted February 28, 2008 Share #2 Posted February 28, 2008 God Rest his "pain in the butt, bickering, picky, world Class car Building" Soul. Great guy, met him once, who's gonna yell at those guys in the shop now? Sad News indeed. Dave.:surprised Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdefabri Posted February 28, 2008 Share #3 Posted February 28, 2008 RIP - while I wasn't a fan of his methods, he died way too young. Prayers to his family.I need to check Jalopy Journal - he wasn't really well liked, but I know this is still a shock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montezuma Posted February 28, 2008 Share #5 Posted February 28, 2008 He seemed like a nice enough guy who was involved in a very tough business. I was no big fan of his methods but I loved watching his show regardless. He was a pioneer in the Hot Rod business and that I respect. I would imagine that there is a fight a foot coming between his son and Jo over the business. I can't imagine it is going to be a smooth transition. I know he is doing a huge burnout right in front of the Pearly Gates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arne Posted February 28, 2008 Share #7 Posted February 28, 2008 I too met him once, in the early '90s on a tour of his facility. While I'm not a hot rod type of guy, there's no doubt that he had imagination and vision, and a knack for making things happen. R.I.P., Boyd.

TomoHawk Posted March 1, 2008 Share #8 Posted March 1, 2008 In case you didn't know, there was a statement from the family that said he died from complications resulting from long-term diabetes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
