Default Remember that douche from Boyd's Hot Rod Show?

The one that flew off the handle at every little thing? Duane Mayer was/is the name.

American Hot Rod Star Arrested For Drunk Driving Crash In '32 Ford

(Clicky for pics)

This immaculate ‘32 Ford ended up bashed in, TMZ reports because its driver, American Hot Rod star Duane Mayer, got so drunk he fell out of the driver’s seat while the car was doing 25 miles an hour.

Anaheim Police Department confirmed to Jalopnik that the driver and suspect in this case was Duane Mayer. Moreover, they were able to confirm that he was arrested and booked for misdemeanor driving while under the influence of alcohol.

Anaheim police posted these pictures of the hot rod at the start of this year on Facebook with the following caption:

Always designate a driver when drinking.

This is a New Year’s Day DUI crash from last night on Weir Canyon. Don’t drink and drive.

Only yesterday, however, did TMZ get pictures of the hospitalized driver, none other than reality TV star and builder of ZZ Top’s famous CadZZilla, Duane Mayer. They also reported that it was the police who stated that Mayer fell out of the car while it was moving.

It’s a reminder that even the best cars and most looked-up-to drivers can be undone by a drunk driver.

American Hot Rod is a reality television series that originally aired between 2004 and 2008.

Many Coddingtons employees went to work for Overhaulin's Chip Foose, a former partner of Coddington, for a more relaxed environment. Even Boyd's own son could not work there anymore.

Jo Coddington, Boyd's wife, now works for Champion Brands as a spokesperson and JOCO racing.

Duane Mayer, Foreman, now runs his own shop, American Hot Rods Inc.

Dan Sobieski, "Chicago", now runs Poor Boys Hot Rod in Boyd's former body shop.

Never watched the show because of all the drama. Same reason I stopped watching OCC.

My first thought at the headline was 'which one?'. I liked that show for the first 10 minutes of the first episode I ever watched, after that....no. They were airing some episodes over Christmas time I think and I tried to watch but so much douchebaggery I still couldnt stand it.

As far as "American Hot Rod" is concerned the only guy on there I liked was Roy Schmidt. Dude was cool and knew how to fab sheet metal.

U.M.

RIP Roy
