I think Chip Foose learned most of his stuff from Boyd.

james_ls 02-27-2008 11:17 PM

Wow.

I didn't even click on any of the links.

My heart sank on this one...got the fortune of meeting him a while back.

One of the nicest, most open minded auto-enthusiasts out there.

God bless.

DPancoast 02-27-2008 11:20 PM

Apparently he was hospitalized for a little while because another article said he missed some Car show/event at the end of January or early February

Check google for a few more results.
