No pics, but I'm sorry to hear he died. My wife and I loved watching his show.

No '32, but here's a clean 33 from last year:
'33 Ford Pro-Street 3 Window Coupe 454

Wow, what a suprise, I hope it wasn't due to many years around chemicals...

I grew up building street rods with my father so I've know of him most of my life. Here is a 32 sedan and 34 5-window coupe with some of my paint work.

Posted on the Boyd website:

Wow. What a shock. How old was the fellow. I could have sworn the man had a while to go.

Holly crap - can't believe it. Great watching his shows, and some amazing work coming out of the shop.

RIP BC

It's a sad day indeed and definately warrents searching deep into the old photographs to find some '32 pictures as a mark of respect to 'The man'

This is an original 'steel' car that was built by a buddy of mine here in the UK and was recently shipped to the USA to use as a run around when he is over there.

All pictures were taken before I knew how to take a camera out of Auto mode!

He will be missed. He designed some of the best looking cars to ever go down the road. This is not a 32 ford(one of my favorites) but it's my little hot rod with Boyd wheels. It has surprised a few mustangs and camaros

He started so many trends in the hot rod/custom world. He will be missed. Chezoom, the Smoothster, Aluma Coupe and CadZZilla are some of my absolute favorite custom cars ever built.

I don't really have any Boyd-style hot rod pics, so here's a pic of my truck with Boyd Coddington wheels.
