Speed Channel ~ Living The Low Life ~ Danny D
Speed Channel is premiering a new show this Thursday night called “Living The Low Life“. Vida Guerra is the host and the show will take a look at the lowriding culture from the types of lowriders to the painters, builders, etc.
I stopped by Danny D’s shop yesterday and they happen to be filming his segments for next week’s show. If you’ve never heard of Danny D chances are you’ve seen his work. He is one of the top custom painters in the industry. He also does pinstriping, lettering and full on car builds. Here is a link to his page and a couple of photos of the filming.
Here’s Danny giving Vida a overview on how different types of patterns/stripes get painted.
Here’s a shot of Danny & Vida and Danny holding Vida’s photo.

At least twice the meaning of a WWll gas rationing windshield sticker was described as designating which day you could buy gas. This is incorrect. It signified how much gas you could buy per week. Buying gas required using coupons. An A sticker (the most common) got you about 3 or 4 gallons. The speed limit was 35 mph. The real reason for gas rationing was to save tires.

Good to see an Latino doing something good and positive in ELA. I appreciate Art and Beauty on LowRider cars. Takes passion, skill and good eye. Also, I am a old school women from the 80’s who would cruise is some of those lowriders on Whitter Blvd. along at Elisian Park down by Dodgers Stadium. Maybe you did work on some of these cars. Fantasy Car Club-Old time Fleetlines, and BridgeTown La Puente Bombs, Chevys, ect. Good Luck on Your New Show. What channel is it on?

I grew up in Azusa, CA and hit high school in the late 50’s. Some of the comments you make about the long old cars really tickles me. Brings back such great visual memories. Although most of my classmates loved the low-riders and the unique additions most couldn’t afford them. You have beautiful artistry. So nice to see it appreciated by so many. Good Luck to the show.

I Love watching all the beautiful cars you have put together. I see a lot of 63 Chevy’s. My husband and I have a 63 Chevy and a 73 Plymouth Roadrunner. My husband has been disabled since he was 26 years old, which is 21 years!!! With his disability, we are unable to fix up his cars, so we are trying to sell them. I know you do a lot with these old cars, but I would appreciate it if you can maybe pass the word on, about our cars. If YOU trust these people, you are more than welcome to give them my e-mail address. Keep up the Wonderful Work!! I haven’t seen your program on TLC. Are you not doing them anymore? God Bless!!!
