Find out by tonight by watching the most recent episode of "Livin' the Low Life" on the Speed cable channel.

Tonight's episode is devoted to the Ruelas family, founders of the legendary So Cal Dukes car club. The show's host, Vida Guerra, and crew have been spotted around town taping segments at auto body and paint shops, including Danny D's (pictured) in Baldwin Park.
