Everyone keeps saying Boyd built great cars, I never saw him build one car, he had designers, fabricators, painters and the only time he got his hands dirty it ended up having to be re done. Early days maybe but certainly not in the past 15 years
What it comes down to is-"Money talks,bullshit walks"the cunts are the shysters that try fucking this guy over money.Most cunts cannot understand how much work/toil goes into a refined machine/all the tools,machinery it takes to build it from the builders pocket.Too many cunts in this world.
This prick had the personality of a used rubber. I worked for a cocksucker like him for 2 years, i feel sorry for anyone who worked for him except for that ball licker duane.
I think California killed him,just like it did Jesse James with its bullshit laws.Why would it take yrs for California to fine J.James over $200,000 in fines saying his engines weren't running clean enough?Fucking California greedheads responsible.
boyd hat zwar sehr schöne autos gebaut...bzw seine mannschaft..doch er und duane waren die größten arschlöcher...die nur auf kosten der mitarbeiter das fertig bringen konnten...hut ab vor der leistung seiner mannschaft....
man soll trotzdem nicht schlecht über verstorbene reden...nun denn
Come on, the show was documented proof that he was a royal a-hole...so he's dead and now we are gonna ignore the facts? The employees thought they had gotten their dream job-working for Boyd. And every one quit 'cause the dude was impossible to work for. His son is a punk, and he was a prick. It's on tape. F-Billet and Boyd too. Except for Cadzilla, most of the cars sucked too.
C'mon, since when does dying turn anybody into a saint? I sure would never have wanted to work for him. And after watching a few of his shows and how his crew was forced to slap cars together under ridiculous deadlines, I wouldn't have ever bought a car from him either.
Hey, Good to see I have a fan. This is a song I wrote when I was seventeen. It's called "you always said Gordon never did you wrong". By me Joshua Prenton.
Boyd Coddington died on February 26, 2008 at the age of 63. The cause of death was officially announced as complications from diabetes. Boyd was hospitalized in January 2008 after a fall on New Year's. Doctors performed surgery and he was expected to make a full recovery.
And who employed Duane? Duane was a big fat ass licking idiot. But Boyd was a even greater ass. It was his way or the highway. His staff was great but got no respect at all in return.
@mizaleon They're both assholes.Someone should have shoved Duhhane in the hole on top of boyds coffin !! Talk about 2 of the biggest assholes that ever walked the planet !!
Evertime I watch a rerun of American Hotrod, I see a man who had no people skills and thought he was god. He treated his staff like shit. He would volunteer his guys to do volunteer work on weekends and couldn't work out why they were pissed. And Duane wasn't a leadmans asshole.
No he fuckin didn't, he treated them like shit when they turned on him, like when Charlie one of his best friends who he even lived with, left him to go an work for Foose, so don't start callin people aholes when you didn't know what they were like away from the garage.
I'm a mechanic, and i know how people get all shitty when times are tough and deadlines need to be met.
Charlie was ready to move on, it's not Russia...you can leave and work where ever you want. When Charlie quit Boyd acted like a complete and utter asshole. Duane was different...true, but still was a lousy team leader. And as for deadlines, Boyd would make stupid deadlines and then go on holiday. You didn't see Boyd in the garage on the weekends he expected his team to work. Just because you are a fan of Boyd you overlook how he treated his guys.
@unapro3 ...i think the same...i a m from germany and watch the rerun sometimes...he build great cars...but heand duane was an ashole....a german guy..ps.sorry for my bad english
fuck that people...if you can not see the guy was a dick head from his show your a poor judge of character... what a prick! it must have been hell to work for him.
r.i.p... boyd. i enjoyed watching your program on the u.k. discovery chanels. the world has lost a briliant visiononery. best wishes to your family. now some one can kick bluebears butt at least.. a fan uk...
Having watched the Cars you built and the passion you showed, myself and my family loved watching your enthusiasm for life, and your passion for cars. I only hope more people have your passion in life to life a life as fulfilling as you did.
I think over 10 years of fininace pressure (started with Boyds Wheels) is the real reason of his loss, and trust me (even im young) finnancial shit can eat you away slowly, and with the growing inflation now it would make it even more treu... sad but treu.
Found out the truth a few minutes ago. Im devastated, what a loss. The Godfather of sheetmetal is no more? I cant believe it!! Chip will have his work cut out to fill your footsteps. And what now about the company?
I've heard it today when I watched American Hotrod, but for the program started I saw: boyd coddington 44-08, it scared the hell outa me, it was a fantastic show. RIP.

merci boyd pour toutes ces belles conception de "hot rod" ! Merci de nous avoir fait réver et de m'avoir donner l'envie de faire moi aussi ce beau réve!
So what if he didn't treat them right?... This video isn't about what he did wrong.. but for what he was appreciated.. so... we should all respect that.. don't you think?
Rather you liked him or not, his ideas were amazing. To be able to create the cars he did! America lost an Icon today in the automotive world. His ideas and creations WILL be missed. R.I.P. BOYD!!
Boyd was great.He has my respect.He was much better to build cars than I ever will bee.I am very sad to hear that he has died.People that dislike him don´t know how hard it is design things as he did .And they will have the brian to understand it.R.I.P Boyd best regaurds John.
American Hot Rod show introduced me to the world of MR BOYD CODDINGTON'S creations, some were nice some not so nice, he was a hard employer thats for sure,sometimes rude ,arrigant, but also sometimes very good to his staff,like outtings and stuff,show the man some respect he does deserve it, after all no matter what anyone says or does he was a HOTROD LEDGEND AND ALWAYS WILL BE...!!!
R.I.P BOYD.Prayers and condolances to the family.
a car is not overpriced is someone pays it. He was a boss he had to be on there ass to get the job done. Just like any boss in america, if you got high dollar stuff for a picky customer its got to be perfect, thats why he had to be that way
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
hey you idiot redneck I bet you wouldn't say that standing in front of me. Now go get your FAT ass woman in your pickem up truck some cheap beer and buy some scratch off lotto tickets & watch some nascar or so other redeneck fishing show, what a loser.
lession her you pice of shit, dont ever talk shit about my girl. And i would say that to your face. you dont even know who i am yet you assume i watch nascar and fishing i dont. i dont drink either. All that is coming out of your mouth is shit
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I say your woman is a FAT Wide ass bitch that smells like old Gym socks. I bet she has as much hair as as Bigfoot, bet she looks awful naked with all those rolls of fat. I doubt standing in front of me you would even make eye contact with someone like me. People like you are bullshit artist and all talk. You would end up calling me SIR and telling me that you were just "joking"
I never actually liked most of his designs. They seemed all to be fairly identical in appearance and his show made me think this guy was simply stuck in the retro crap American car manufacturers seem to be.
boyd is a fagget. chip foose is da man, at least he works on all of his car. thank god boyd is dead. hope he burns in hell.

a car is not overpriced is someone pays it. He was a boss he had to be on there ass to get the job done. Just like any boss in america, if you got high dollar stuff for a picky customer its got to be perfect, thats why he had to be that way

I say your woman is a FAT Wide ass bitch that smells like old Gym socks. I bet she has as much hair as as Bigfoot, bet she looks awful naked with all those rolls of fat. I doubt standing in front of me you would even make eye contact with someone like me. People like you are bullshit artist and all talk. You would end up calling me SIR and telling me that you were just "joking"

I never actually liked most of his designs. They seemed all to be fairly identical in appearance and his show made me think this guy was simply stuck in the retro crap American car manufacturers seem to be.
RIP but your cars sucked - imo.

Did you know both Chip Foose AND Jesse James worked for him? Maybe you can appreciate the man now.

And they both left him on non speaking terms. He treated his employees like shit and nothing is lost by his death.
