Boydstun Closed???
I just saw an email that said that Boydstun Metal Works Inc. is not operating right now “Till all legal issues are resolved”. Their website doesn’t reflect any change but I could not get anybody to answer the phone on any lines! Anybody know what happened?
As Donnie pointed out here is a copy of the notice:
“Our Store Is Closed
To all our valued customers, On behalf of our owner Rob Boydstun and the parts sales team we regret to inform you that after 20 years of business we are having to close our doors. Thank you for all your patronage and support. Boydstun Metal Works”
Apparently you can get your Boydstun parts at TEC

If you go to their website and go to any parts page there is a message to their customers anouncing the closure.

and to add to that…a question for inquiring minds……………………….What doe this do to resale prices on boydstun rigs?? I’m guessing it’s going to affect the cylinder units a bit…but the screw units..WOW…It’s all proprietary!!Huge hit in my opinion.

It appears the bad economy has put Boydstun Metalworks into another line of work..I read oregonlive.com article that owner R Boydstun can take 6 junk cars and convert the scrap metal into pre fabricated homes. I’m just reporting what I read, (mirandahomes) is the new Boydstun venture since carhaul is in a depression.

I can’t believe Boydstun has just closed it’s doors so quickly. He must believe that the pre-fab home idea he has with the crushed cars is gonna really take off!

I am not suprised , the place was ran like a joke !! No customer service!! Once he got on his house kick he pretty much gave up on the car haulers. he was not giving rasises , say times are hard , but bought his self a pusher R/V and had a extra flat screen tv installed . He was really hurting . I only wish to be so hard up! . Best wishies to all the men and woman who work hard ! shed blood sweet and tears . who now have to start all over ! God bless them all!! Good luck everyone!!!

Unfortunately I am (was) a Boydstun customer. Let me tell you how that was for me. Right from the day Iwas supposed to pick up my new trailer these lying, incompetent ****** never missed an opportunity to screw me around. Things like the trailer not completed on time, trailer not built to my spec, virtually NO after sale service, trailer itself being a piece of shit-by far the worst I have owned, being told there were numerous qualified repair shops and then finding out this was a complete lie (in Canada),as well as owing me several thousand dollars of out of pocket expenses which I have no chance whatsoever of getting back. I could detail many more instances of Boydstun Metal Works deceitful, under-handed and just plain sleazy business practices that were inflicted on me but what would be the point. The proof is in the fact that they are not in business anymore and to that I say GOOD RIDDANCE!! And about Mr. Ron Boydstun….he won’t miss a beat (too bad about his former
employees though)
