They are, after all, our history. I respect someone who respects and honors that history and works as passionately as Jay does to bring back and maintain them so everyone can appreciate and understand where we've been and how far we've come. It doesn't hurt that his videos are some of the best, most entertaining ones out there. Thanks Jay! It also doesn't hurt that one of the cars he's featured is also one that I'm presently rebuilding, the lowly AH bugeye sprite. Talk about a fun way to spend a rainy day!
What I really love is the breadth of the talent he surrounds himself with in bringing back those marvelous machines. From artisans who can hand craft a complex missing or damaged part to brilliant computer techs who can operate scanning machines and 3D modelig machines to replace parts from mere photographs of the needed part. Just incredible. It wouldn't surprise me at all if automotive museums from aound the country were calling Jay up for his and his crew's expert knowledge and skills. Jay has taken the cliche of being a care taker to these vehicles to an extreme degree. He is the ulitmate care taker and should be proud of what he's accomplished.
The amount of knowledge alone to make/create all the cars, trucks, engines, etc is unbelievable. And the amount of time to rebuild these “toys” is incredible too👍
Just a living breathing museum. And genuine knowledgeable interest in things mechanical. I hope there is a Leno mk 2 to take over or a trust set up to keep this collection alive.
Absolutely brilliant thanks so much for sharing. Couldn’t think of anything more interesting than spending time with Jay and Dennis in Jay’s garage. Loved the green Tatra.
That 3D printer @9:22 is a Diemension SST 1200ES printer which cost $35k in 2008. Adjusted for inflation, that's almost $50k in 2023. This does not include the price of the proprietary "filament" it used. Totally worth it for someone in Mr. Lenos position as you can reproduce just about anything. Printers have gotten even better/faster since then including the lower end hobby printer like Bambu Lab printers which are phenomenal. Wonder what printer the shop upgraded to since then.
The only reason we have technology such as this mind bogglingly cool 3D printer is because of science and technology in education. Thank you teachers!! 👌
Frazer-Nash designed gun turrets which were used on aircraft in WW2- the Lancaster bomber had three. Perhaps, a rear gun turret on the back of the car would be an interesting custom version.
i would like to know a little about the financial side of the garage. is it self-sustaining through services that it provides to others or must jay pay everything himself? jay is approaching 70 and he is spending the later years of his life doing something that he loves. i truly admire that. when jay is gone, there will be/should be a leno collection. it is a unique and very personal lifetime collection of vehicles and memorabilia. it is clear that jay owned many of these items long before "jay leno's garage" existed. over time i have learned so much about vehicles and motorcycles of the past that i would probably have missed if i had not seen these videos. i appreciate this knowledge. thank you jay.
Dennis and Jay need their own show together, they're the American version of Clarkson and May. I've never seen anyone mention this in the comments, but in all of the videos out there, Dennis is the only person I've ever seen Jay let drive any of his cars which speaks volumes of the respect Jay has for Dennis.
The shoes! I can remember a day a long time ago when I had the opportunity to drive a Lotus Europa but it didn’t happen, it couldn’t happen. I couldn’t get both of my big feet into the peddle well! There was no way to fit my 2 feet in to the tiny space to clutch and gas at the same time! I couldn’t do it without one of my feet over the brake peddle and the clutch or brake peddle and the gas at the same time. My first and only chance to ever drive a Lotus and there was no way to do it.
The floor colors in the shop caught our attention right away. Seems like the white gives the space more light and is not where people work, and the red hides some of the mess from the fabrication. Or, there was a sale on leftover paint...
Jay have you ever done a video on your watch collection? I know you've switched to an Apple watch, but just curious if you have a collection and if it has a story.
Hey Guys, this looks a lot like an ALFA ROMEO 2 liter Engine with a red valve cover on top of it..... I had back in the days a ALFETTA 2 liter and a GIULITETTA 1,8 liter the Block is about the same just with different (WET) iron sleeves in it..... ;-) and YES I got rid of them Dellortos and fitted the better double WEBERS... :-) was installing 2 very hot Albert race cams into it, BUT it could barely idle... top Rpm 8500... and 140 Hp on the Dyno.... boy that was noisy....

My Classic Car, a show that has been seen by millions, can currently been seen on Velocity, and just like that I've proven everything you've said to be false.
@@jackson187 chit-cago...LMAO The Detroit metro area is car city. Home to the world wide Dream Cruise. There's' more Engineers, hot rods and classic cars here than any other place on the planet. No one watched that show here because it was crap. You sound like you're full of s****
Rainey Day Dennis!
I hope we can all appreciate that Jay has the funds and the love of older machines and cars to put in what it takes to conserve them.

Jay Leno is a National Treasure! His love of cars and all things mechanical has allowed all of us to enjoy these magnificent cars and machines.
Jay Leno has become one of my favorite celebrities.
He worked to fund his passion! Vehicles and machines.
jays guys are true artisans, real craftsmen, I love this channel, great job!!!
I totally agree.
Well said.

I'm becoming a fan of Jay . He shares his love of automobile history .
Jay's extensive car knowledge is amazing!
Jay is a former mechanic.
Jay's garage is every gear head's dream come true.
The stationary engine sounds like a heavy metal beat. Rainy day fun!
*/w\METAL/w\*
It would be lots if fun to hang around with Jay all the time he has so many awesome things going on
Nice to see my old mechanic Bernard J.
Jay has the best garage anywhere
Jay is such a great American...
How cool is that stationary engine 👌👌👌

You are the type of people why I did not make it to school I was happy to meet my friend at school and show my place I found to get a cold drink
Jay Leno is the goat car guy!

Equity I'd say, each car will be worth some money then running is worth way more
Jay started his career as an auto technician.
Dennis and Jay need their own show together, they're the American version of Clarkson and May. I've never seen anyone mention this in the comments, but in all of the videos out there, Dennis is the only person I've ever seen Jay let drive any of his cars which speaks volumes of the respect Jay has for Dennis.
And I have the utmost respect for Jay! He's the real deal, and probably the most knowledgable car guy I know.
These guys know cars! Wow!
Jay Leno is doing EXACTLY what I'd be doing if I had his money.
Jay got a haircut! I used to listen to Jim & Bob Hall on the radio from time to time.
This was shot back in the early 2000's. Jay's probably gotten a number of haircuts since then. 😊
Keeping the faith alive and present !!
Brilliant fun and interesting 🇬🇧 hello from across the pond 👍
Jay is awesome! Loved him in Alice. He makes the 3D printer sound so easy. I would love to afford and learn how to use one.
What an amazing episode!!! Jay never fails to impress those who are appreciative of things like these!!! Just amazing stuff!!!
You guys have way to much fun! Good for you.
Hospital application's make human body parts.... your a genius big J. Thanks
Jay Leno'. Still has a tonight show in my mind
I love when Jay goofs on Dennis...
Great video ! Mike from Missouri
I thought I was an automotive enthusiasts! Wow.
I Love it... Thanks for Sharing

Enjoy video ! Mike from Missouri
Frazer Nash are still around, they make exotic components for aerospace applications.

Absolutely awesome . Feckin
Wow....very cool
This Jay guy is funny. He should think about working as a comedian.
he IS a stand up comedian, one of the most known in USA, since nearly 50 years :-)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
you pseudonym is telling me , that you really think it was a wonderful, sublime joke....
and you certainly thought this was amazing humour.....your pseudo here confirms the level, of both the joke as the comment
kasel, you are a very bright man. You should make more YuoTube posts.
Actually... he's not that funny.
Dennis yes it's called PISTON Slap That Leno explained to you multiple times .Great show mister .
WOW I want a 3D printer.
Hey Jay get that stationary engine to run a generator for your shop but you might want to put a cage around it to keep the kids away
That thing looks seriously dangerous !
The floor colors in the shop caught our attention right away. Seems like the white gives the space more light and is not where people work, and the red hides some of the mess from the fabrication. Or, there was a sale on leftover paint...
Red designates "work zone " duh
I’m sure local racer Barry Thomas use too race a lotus
Jay have you ever done a video on your watch collection? I know you've switched to an Apple watch, but just curious if you have a collection and if it has a story.
👍
Can you scan super models in that thing ?🤤
The custom model came with muffler bearings and a driveshaft spring.
It looks like he was drinking for this one, be careful Jay!
Jay doesn’t drink.

Multi-millionaire driving a brass and leather cars........people are fucking stupid
dennis can just go away.
Probably ain't gonna happen tho considering I've been doing this for 23 years.
TRIGGER ALERT! The show is bad, I can't believe there are still sponsors.
Oh...I just checked, it already did happen. NO main stream channel carries your show!
