His name stuck with me because I had never heard anyone named Boyd before (I thought he said Boy, and he had to correct me). Turned out to be a nice guy in person and had no problems letting me really check out the cars. He knew I could not afford any of them, but it didn't matter. I think that day really solidified me as a car nut instead of just liking some old car designs.
I heard he had diabetes.
