Visit to Boyd Coddingtons in the USA
Whilst in the USA last month we had chance to visit Boyd Coddingtons workshop. I am not huge fan of hotrods etc but I do like the program on Discovery.
Anyway, few pictures to share for those who may be interested.

Turn Up
Yep thats all we did.
The red part is the public area, they have a shop etc but the workshop is out of bounds.
I guess they must get lots of ' I love Boyds, coming to see you ' type emails, next time you go just drive down there
We used the last few hours before flying out of LAX to visit them as we were in LA for the D1.

Well if Dwayne is as much of a pillock in the real world as he appears on TV then the same can probably be said about Boyd. Nice cars, but Boyd just comes across as a complete *****.

I must admit he has to be a bit of *****, they seem to go through employees faster than a place I used to work for (and they were well dodgy).
And having your wife and ex-wife working in the same building? Even if they did get along (which they don't), that's just plain weird
I'd still love to take a visit

Well I would certainly love to visit that place. I am not so bothered about all the personal relationships etc but just the thought of seeing a workshop like that and the quality of the work they do would keep my interest going.
Great programme too.
