My son and I loved to watch his show. Thats too bad.

Too bad, he got a lot of people interested in the hobby. Now he's up there together with Ed "Big Daddy" Roth and shootin' bad ju-ju down at Chuck Foose...lol

That is quite unexpected and sad. Watching his show was like watching a train wreck in slow motion. When the show initially started it was actually a pretty good show. Then he started to lose key people one after another then inexperienced hacks started to join and then get fired in rapid succession.

I agree Lil.... mad mojo for Foose as he single handily stole pretty much everyone from Boyd.

yes his show was quite funny, but i think all the workers used it to show off how much they can do and lave him once they got some recognition.

funny guy he is tho, and he was all up on his business tho, looks like till the last day.
i enjoyed the show, and they came up with some great cars
sad

is it just me or did anyone else think that skinny guy that worked there looked extra goofy... You could always see his upper front teeth and he would talk as if only had 2 functional muscles in his jaw... I think he was one of the first to be swiped up by Chip Foose.

He was their top machinist - ran the CNC operation - very skilled. He was partially paralyzed in the face from a bad wreck he was in testing one of the cars.
