No great loss. All Boyd could do was flap his gums about how great he could build cars. Never saw him build anything. He had talented people do the work for him.

He had talented people do the work for him. sorry brett but your statement is akin to saying that dictka, flores and many other nfl coaches couldn't play football! these guys were greart players before they were coaches. just because boyd didn't set hand on all construction of the cars that have come out of his shop lately dosen't mean he couldn't/didn't build great cars. |
