Street Trucks Magazine C/K 25th Anniversary Part 1 – The Pioneers

We were fortunate enough to be interviewed by Street Trucks Magazine to give the Boyd perspective on the 88-98 Chevy and the Sport Truck movement that came out of that body style. While my dad is best known for hot rods it was his contribution to the sport truck scene that put Hot Rods by Boyd and his billet wheels and billet accessories into high gear in the aftermarket. The late eighties and early 90’s were a great time for me watching this unfold. It was right around the time I started driving and watching truck after truck get painted, lowered, and a set of wheels put on it at the shop was great. From before I could remember my dad always had a lowered truck with some one off billet wheels that he made in the garage on it. So when 1988 came around and the new Chevy body style came out it was game on. My dad couldn’t get his hands on one fast enough. The rest is history. Check it out as Dwayne Mayer, Pete Santini, Steve Stanford, and myself talk about those times.

Thanks to Street Trucks Magazine, Jason Mulligan, and Marcel Venable for putting this together. Excited to see part 2.
