Just wanted to take a second to honor Roy on American Hotrod (Boyd's Cottington). I just heard about him passing away...must say I will miss him. He was definitely the best that Boyd had...true craftsman. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/welder.gif)

Never saw the shop or the real workings of same, but am I the only one that gets concerned that these cars seem thrown together at the last minute in order to make some deadline?
It does seem that Boyd is either a crummy boss or a terrible time manager. Don't know how much of that is for the TV show though. Roy certainly was one of those craftsmen that just leave you speechless when you see what they can quietly do by themselves. RIP |
