Wow, how could that happen? I used to watch American Hot Rod and those cars were great. I did notice he had a temper around the shop, so who knows.

Yea, Boyd was sure one of the old school hot rodders. angel
And his temper, wow. Always reminded me of my dad, at his boat business. But ya know, those ol' guys knew how they wanted things done, and when you messed with their method or designs, heads rolled. Smile

My dad shot MORE than one radio, a mechanic was playing too loud at their work bench....with a .410 snake charmer shotgun. Wink
