New episode, the drama continues. Duane, the shop manager walks out. Maybe he goes over to see Chip (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

I don't know Boyd.

I was kinda disappointed in the show though. It shows Boyd as a basically overgown parts order. You never really see him create anything.

A friend of mine who runs a custom rod shop is a friend of Boyds.
I met Boyd and his wife when they stopped in to help judge a local car show. Some thought he was a God but I agree with Aaron. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif)

Boyd's style is kindoff stuck in the 80's... he likes alot of billet when the "rage" today is "old school" rods...

all the guys that left went to off to Foose, but he's sort of more of the same.. just doesn't scream and yell like an idiot....

Look at the DA's he has working for him - would anyone in thier right mind pay someone like that $100k+ to make a car? I was really disapointed when that show came out and saw the hack job work those people put out.

There's big money in street rods! My friend Snick gets 100k + to start for an outdoor showcar. For a good indoor showcar it'll cost at least double!!

I've never met Boyd, but buddies that have say he's just like what you see on TV; A parts ordering schmuck with no real talent and a very big head...

And mouth...

I wonder if his business dropped off after everyone got to see his crew in action. I call them "the gang that couldn't shoot straight"... Except for Roy and the painter that went to Foose they don't seem to know very much about cars...

What I respect about Chip is.... If you watch Overhaulin its not uncommon to see him laying on the ground sanding out body filler or masking cars for paint. Dipshit Boyd would never ruin one of his ugly ass shirts doing real work. American Hot Rod was the worst career move he ever made.

I really don't care about the stupid pranks they do, but the work is A+. I stopped watching Boyd's show after Charlie quit.

If I had the $$ and it was a choice between Foose or Boyd to build a car for me it would be Foose. I like Foose style, not just with cars but with people also. I'm the type of person that if you want respect you have to give it also, I don't see Boyd doing that, at least from the way he is on the show. And that shop manager of his would have been on his ASS if he talked to me like he does to everyone else in the shop.
