Boyd is a numpty, he's lost all his best people and now relies on contractors for most of the specialist work.

 

That said his cars are selling for bigger money than ever.. The special builds are going for over $80k, a few have gone for over $250k in the last year!

Hello everyone,

 

This is a post I really don't want to write and it is being done with great sadness. Roy's wife, Laura, had been battling an illness for quite sometime, and last week she succumbed to that illness and passed away. She and Roy were soul mates and needless to say that devastated Roy. Last night Roy joined her in Heaven. He passed away ending his bought with lung cancer.

 

We wanted to let all of you who wrote in know that Roy did get your messages. He, as well as his family and all of us at Boyd Coddington's Garage appreciated all your thoughts and prayers. Roy was very special to us and he will be sorely missed.

 

May God bless Roy and Laura.

 

Thank you Roy

Love watching this, but I find Boyd's constant unrealistic deadlines a real PITA, every build is the same which is a shame as over time he has lost some of his best staff directly and indirectly because of this.

 

Very sad news about Roy and his wife.

 

Anyone know where Bluebear went after working for Boyd?

 

Does anyone know when the current shows being shown on Discovery Real Time were made..........are we a long way behind?
