The quote above about him being a cunt to his workers is totally wrong,its always Boyds idea to take the guys out of the workshop on a trip of some sorts as a reward for all their hard work. Its Dwayne thats the prick and needs a good smack in the face, the way he treats the other guys in the workshop is bang out of order and none of the guys respect him for it, they all have great respect for Boyd though as he's been there and done that so knows exactly whats right and whats wrong. Dwayne just suffers from small man syndrome !!!!


RIP Boyd and hope you and Roy are having a great time up there !

R.I.P Boyd

A very talented guy will be lost in the hot rod world !!!!
But im affraid to say he was a very arrogant person when I met him in Tulsa last year where most of his crew and his wife gave some time to stop and chat with us he walked by and didnt say even say Hi !!!

have you been watching custom my ride?
ryan gets big dane to fire more people than you would think possible but there is always a reason
dwayne was the biggest arse at boyd's if i'm being perfectly honest, i don't think anyone liked him, boyd junior certainly hated his guts and told him so when he made the comment "when it says "dwaynes" over the entrance, then you can do what you like, until then, my dad runs the show"

also chip wouldn't be where he is without being boyds apprentice

and even though everone thinks charlie was tapping mrs boyd (the fit one not the boulder eating one) him going to chip's was the biggest shock i think

perhaps now we will finally find out why chip and boyd fell out

RIP for the fella but dwayne and big dane for that matter are in the kinda job where they are made to do all the boss' dirty work so they would look like asses sometimes but they are only carrying out what they're told to do

Can't believe Roy's gone aswell
