Boyd was awesome, he was a true talent in the hot rod world he really had the knack for building incredible machines. His name, idea's and innovations in the hot rodding world will always be remembered and admired.
Chip Foose could not even hold a lite match to Boyd's ass. Anybody with the name chip should not be building hot rods.Chip sounds like a has been high school jock that nows sells sporting goods. Foose should be Fool.

Your an Idiot. Boyd taught Chip. They both excel in their own areas. Boyd is a great hot rod builder. Foose is a great customizer and has bulit plenty of vehicls from scratch. They are both automotive geniuses. With out one the other would not be here. Same goes for Jesse James who also worked for boyd.

My wife used to be BC's banker back in the early days before he changed wifes and went BK.

Foose used be like a son to Boyd. When Chip left the company it broke Boyd's heart. I used to be invited to all the new hotrod unvailings. Amazing cars.

Yes, but that only goes for the Boyd-Foose path, not the other way around.
