From 1986 to 1994 I was a Mac Tools Distributor and "Hot Rods by Boyd" was on my route. Located in Stanton, California. They didn't buy very many tools from me, but I got to see the progress on many cars weekly including Cadzilla. That experience was priceless.

Cadzilla also got people thinking about alternative engines. The 500ci Cadillac engine, most people did not know about the 472-500 because they thought the 454 was the biggest, and others didn't bother because there was no aftermarket parts for them. This got the hot rod hobby to start fabricating their own parts, this was also the time many got interested in home metal casting and machining, not long after the internet the old school ways of fabricating and modding parts exploded and we saw a renaissance of the early days of hot rod building being rediscovered by the Gen Xers. Boyd helped spark Gen X interest in hot rods and custom vehicles.

I was in the US and visited Boyd's shop just before he died. If you remember back to the tv series and how toxic it was, it wasn't an act. I went there on their open day, and the way in which staff spoke to the customers that had their cars on display (built by Boyd) for them was pretty foul. Turned me right off. I also visited Chips' and it still remains one of the highlights of my trip. Met his wife and staff during their open hour/ lunch break. Stayed for 3 hours at their wishes. Chip wasn't there but he had his crew and a GM engineer working on Imposter. The guys helped me try and find some parts form local speed shops, just because they were good guys. Boyd's shop was moody and rude so, I didn't buy anything... instead saved it and spent more at Foose's shop.

@jedpetersen3806 8 месяцев назад

I know what you're saying is absolutely true. I got to meet Boyd at a seminar, he's a very no nonsense person and doesn't tolerate any BS. I remember one of the guys at the seminar asked Boyd "Why do you like Hawaiian shirts?" Boyd simply said "I like happy things" and without a pos or change of demeanor he moved right on to the next question and rolled right through like a rifle shooting targets. He's one of those people that is thinking about his own agenda with most of his attention and only just enough to appease who ever is attempting to solicit his time.

Sucks you didn’t get to meet Chip. Went to his shop back in 2008. Back when “imposter” was just a drawing on the wall showing where he was going to to cut it to fit on the vette chassis. He was eating lunch next door and they gal giving the tour said go meet him! I didn’t want to bother him on lunch, but she insisted. He stopped eating, not only shook our hands, but asked questions etc. definitely a cool dude!

A lot of that is because it’s simplified and smoothed out. They start looking dated quickly when people got radical and over the top with stuff. To me the really good hot rods are very understated about how much has really been done. They’ll change a lot of the body, lines, and proportions. Sometimes it takes a while to really see what all was done.

He always had money issues and lawsuits were always flying. He took credit for a lot of others work. He would stiff vendors on purpose.

He hired a bunch of talented lazy kids to work on very expensive projects. Boyd ranting through the shop when more senior guys tell him that a car needs more work done to it and Boyd’s response was “fk it, it’s good enough we already spent too much time on this! Just spray it as is and get it out of here!!” Imagine being a guy who saved his whole life to reward himself when he retired, he goes to a “reputable” place to have his dream car done, spends big money on it, then watches on television as his car is worked on by a bunch of high school knobs muking around with it and cutting corners to finish it quick and get it out?

The minimalist look and colors haven't aged as well as they could have but they were revolutionary in their day. Even back then I never went for the pastel colors and billet but I did appreciate what it was about. The shop also blooded some major talent and even with the atmosphere the show projected displayed some great insight to the process.

great to see something with an engine--after two weeks of sewing machines I was starting to get nervous

Too funny. I did a FI swap on my ‘86 C10 back in the early ‘90s . Used a factory TBI wiring and motor from a scrapped ‘89 . And added dual tanks and did the same thing g Boyd did with the spare tank since the fleet side bed only had one tank door . I loved pullin into full serve stations and the kids being annoyed telling me it’s on the other side 😂🤣👌. Guess I was kinda in the custom scene and didn’t know it 🤷‍♂️.

I'm not a fan of the modern trend of GIANT rims on everything. I much prefer a smaller rim with a fat tire and this truck nails that perfectly.

Jay , in '96 I won a $500 gift cert. for Boyds at a car show at Rancho Los Amigos in Downey . Went to the shop , spent $700 more for custom order . Impressive place . He was there but very busy . Long short , I had a piece of history . All the best to you , Neil👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

this is so cool. boyd was the man, i built a 99 tahoe based on boyd's design ideas. couldn't afford a boyd built. Met Chris Coddington back in 2012/2013 when i had a set of boyd wheels on my 68 Camaro. Chris repolished my wheels back to factory finish.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Jay. I know he said that the mirrors were custom, but they look an awful lot like the mirrors on my 1990 SS 454 pickup. I'm not a fan of the stripes but the truck is very clean and simple looking and I like that. It's really nice to see a lowered pickup that doesn't have ridiculous looking 24 inch wheels on it too.. I do agree with you, the location of the gas filler is slightly less than ideal

I believe trucks like the 454ss, Lightning and Syclone all featured styling cues from the sport truck movement of the late 80’s. The aftermarket exploded with parts offering in 1988 when the new generation of GM trucks came out. The OEMs were wise to follow the trends. I remember seeing a concept for the Lightning in 1990/91 that was totally smooth with graphics and a chop similar to the Boyd truck in this video

Those are factory GM sport mirrors that came on the Sierra GT's, Silverado Sports and as you know, the 454 SS trucks
