I guess I'm like most when it comes to Boyd and what I think, but he not a personal friend and therefore I probably don't really know him. You do know that he and Gary Meadors are twins, as they shop at the same store and dress alike. Anyway, I like the show as it gives me a look at the pro's having the same problems with fit, overheating on new engine, etc. I like the fact that there is a bunch on new young guys (anything under 60 is young) that are carrying on metal work and the like, this is especially true of the kid from WY Tech. There a lot of these guys out there with a true interest in building cars. I always watch it. Its damn sure better than Showtime and Lifetime Network. I would really like it if Ron Covell had a show like this where we could really see how it's done. Or maybe even a Popular Hot Rodding show.
