being so used to seeing jay cracking jokes on tonights show, im always expecting him to crack a lame joke any minute. HOWEVER. im proud of how seriously he takes preserving these wonderful cars and allows the information to take center stage. he is my kind of millionaire. awesome attitude too. he sees himself as a caretaker/curator. when i was a kid i only knew cars like this by looking in encyclopedia. jay brings the cars to life for us to see. thank you for that.
Love the way you thank people even if there are died or alive. Respectfully
I came across Jay Leno's Garage by chance and really enjoy watching. Delivered in an informative low key style, not all the staged aggression and brashness of other US car shows.
I came late to your channel - I just found you about a month ago. Now, whenever I have time, I watch a lot of them one after another. I do really enjoy the steam cars. What amazes me is the level of commitment you have to restore these historical gems.
So many people have the idea of, "Out with the old, in with the new!" It's no more important to them than last year's phone book. I'm glad that there are those, like Jay, who're keeping the past alive. I collect old film projectors. I even have them with carbon arc lamps. I am truly devastated at the passing of film. I want my grandchildren to see how we used to watch movies.
I do a 16mm/sound film party every year in my backyard. It's hard to find anyone that can service them, though. Cinevent is in Columbus, OH on Memorial Day weekend. A service tech comes down from Ann Arbor. I'm going.
You go guys! Enjoy your passion AND do your part to preserve some history in your specific niche. I love it.
LOVE These steam car videos!!!!
Same, I think they're my favorite, there's something really awesome about these steam cars. I probably wouldn't even mind the extra work of getting them started if I owned one!
Im the same.. something intriguing about it
I couldn't agree more, but I wish he would do more stationary engine videos. Those stationary engines are just as historically important as the vehicles he has.
My car takes 15 min to start, but thats for entirely diff reasons.
Love all the old cars he, they, has brought back to life!
I'm 65 year old Brit and steam nerd and although we started it all You gotta hand it to the Americans They picked up this ball and ran with it and some of their steam stuff is as good or better than ours
I have said it before, and I fervently believe, that Jay is the epitome of the car guy's car guy. Not ONLY does he have a passion for all of his vehicles, but it shows through in his wealth of knowledge and enthusiasm for them. I like that he not only owns these cars he is immersed in them. Jay, please keep posting videos, they are great, and I once again state emphatically, you are my hero... plus I'm from MA originally too, so I've always rooted for you brother!
We ALWAYS love the steam cars! Keep them running and best of luck with all your restoration projects!
My great grandfather was a salesman for these back in 1910 in Los Angeles. Great to see what he was working with back then, and what a fantastic example of a White Steam Car. Appreciate all the details and history Jay provides too.
The old timers were pretty ingenious to create something that ran so well in a time when the country was changing from riding horses to driving vehicles that utilized horsepower. It seems to me like steam cars were sort of an effort to hang onto the past while traveling into the future. Fascinating. Please do more videos like these.
Dear Jay, your lovingly restored cars will put you in future history books. So regarding the subject of your steam cars, keep them chugging along! As we honestly would love to see more!!!
Cheers! :-)
What a treat to see this marvel of engineering run down the street. Thank you, Jay. As a young fellow looking at popular science or Popular Mechanics magazine, maybe at age 13, there was an article about the Stanley Steemer going 129 miles an hour. This is what my memory of the article is, and now I'm 77. But that just intrigued the daylights out of me that such speeds were attainable in those, what I called, Old Time Cars. I wanted to build a steam car myself and I talked my best buddy Charles Prentice into going along with it, but the dream was short-lived. Forget the fact that we'd be dealing with boiling hot searing steam, but how to craft anything to transfer power from my mom's aluminum Presto pressure cooker, which made a fine hiss. But just for a little while we were in the Stanley Steemer business. If only we heard of the White Steam Car, perhaps we'd have kept going, and made the papers, ending life the way Maine lobsters do.
Thank God someone like Jay Leno has the money and dedication to keep the legacy of these great vehicles alive and well for the rest of us, and generations to come.
TY Jay for keeping this history alive for us. This younger generation has NO idea of auto-motive history, they take everything for granted. TY for sharing your knowledge and car collection.
I am so impressed at the person Jay Leno chooses to be! You more than deserve everything you've earned. Thanks for sharing!
Love the steam content! Wish we had a modern steam car
Jay, I love the steam cars. And thanks for the interview with White's granddaughter. Keep up the great work.
I don't speak english so I don't understand but I love the olds cars 💖
thank you Jay for keeping history working far better than a static display hidden away in a corner
It's great the way you restore all these antique vehicles and then take them out to drive. So many just restore them to place in museums. Cars were built to be driven. I appreciate the video of these old cars on the road.
Thanks Jay for sharing your zest for steam with the us, specifically the younger generation. As a motorhead, I find your collection most fascinating and really appreciate your wide spectrum of steamers, from your stationary engines to your racers.
No one during my era has ever gone to this great length to educate Americans on our country's automotive past.
Keep up the good work!
Signed Generation X
These steam cars are great, love to see a guy like Jay not only restore them but to drive them. Love to see them.
When one sees how good steam was - and how early; it's a real pity it didn't keep going. Thank you so much for rebuilding and running these amazing vehicles. It's clearly a labour of love for you and your team. One day these preserved working systems could inspire a new generation of steam.
Auto museums perserve the look of an auto.....Jay repairs, explains and drives them and I so glad he does....great pleasure to watch these vids
Jay Leno's passion and respect for cars are amazing, what a set up he's got.
Jay is an automotive expert and gives clarity to technical information. Always entertaining and offers an insight to a tremendous diversity of material. Ranging from the industrial revolution and steam engines right to the conceptual future of motoring. I hope he continues to combine his media talents and love of the genre to enable many years of Jay Leno's Garage.
Jay, what You do with cars is just amazing!!! I really wish You all the best and please don't stop - this kind of videos and i would say stories are just super super nice and interesting!!!
I love watching these videos because he really shows you how they worked and gives you some history on the cars, and other similar cars too.
The best part is, he's not an asshole about it. He seems like he really wants to tell you about the car, not like he is being made too. Thanks jay.
Those steam machines are some cool cars. Thank you for sharing and keeping those alive
Love the Steam Cars. I think I like the Doble the best. I've never seen a Doble but I have seen both a Stanley and a White. My good friend about 25 yrs. ago became encamped with steam power and its possibilities and actually designed a conversion for an old Pontiac he had but he never got it built. Thanks Jay for saving these and a terrific part of our history!
Jay, I'm about your age and when I was very young I can remember my dad telling me that once upon a time steam cars were superior to gas cars. He said America made a big mistake at that technological fork in the road. I've always enjoyed your TV show, however your dedication to the automobile and preserving it's historical significance by being the 'good steward' brings my admiration of you to the highest level possible. Your lovingly restored cars will put you in future history books. Thank You
Another fantastic vid. I barely even bother to watch the ones on postwar cars because these early ones are so much more interesting! Please film more! And thank you for making all this available at no cost. It's invaluable to American culture.
I spent a good chunk of my childhood building model A s and Ts with my neighbor. Very much enjoy this series
I can't tell you how much I enjoy these videos about vintage cars. There just the best thing since sliced bread haha But really thank you very much for putting these videos out it's great to see the history of vintage automobiles!!
Thanks for preserving American automobile history. I love the steam cars. Jay Leno will always be remembered for his restoration work. What a huge legacy. You'll be remembered forever
Hi Jay, absolutely enjoy the steam section. I'm a bit of a steam nut, more with trains, boats and portable engines as well as steam heating boilers here in the northeast. The cars are wonders of engineering and I agree Mr. White was a special man. You see much on cars so it's great fun watching your show. It always leaves me wanting for more information. However reading about it is not the same as someone telling you with a passion such as yours!
I would love to work in your shop along side your steam guys to learn and help figure things out. Always felt I was born about 50 years too late! Thanks again, Terry Meehan
10 years after, just watched this video. Steam automobiles are pretty amazing! Thanks for educating us Jay. It's great that you're restoring and preserving Automotive history.
The steam car videos are the most interesting shows. In the history of the automobile it’s an evolutionary dead end, but it shows just how early designers were attempting to solve the problems inherent in creating the car. With the preponderance of a different fuel type, or the failure to develop some piece of technology (say spark plug for instance) the world could look quite different today. Thanks for making these early car videos. I especially appreciate the professional productions. Among the very best you tube offerings.
Jay Truly loves working on and driving all these cars old and new. I could listen to him talk about toothpicks and i'd be just fine. I stumbled onto these videos a few months ago. I'm quite pleased that I did, love Jay and his collection.
Jay performs a great social service by saving and then showing these cars correctly: on the road!
I rewatch these every so often....we all love the work you put into every car and video....you already know that you have a top notch team to help you....impossible to do all this by yourself....keep it up Jay.....
I was never a big Jay Leno fan until I found this page. I love the steam cars! Once they make a comeback I'm the first buyer.
Better yet, let's go into business making them and selling them to hippies
Steam cars are not coming back...
doktorbimmer Probably only for tourism, so you could go sight seeing while getting a cool experience.
I love the way Jay is celebrating engineering history.
how cool is that someone to actually drive them and maintain them properly , Jay you are role model m8 , amazing guy
Man I would have loved to see this beast in person. We have 1940 - 1944 model Lanz Bulldog tractors from our farming days. we kept those old Sump oil burners just in case of another fuel Shortage like in 1984 somewhere. They need some work now but the big 7.3 litre 75 horsepower beast is still running. Actually I would love to see the whole collection Jay has. I do thank Jay for giving all this history in his garage a New Life for so many to enjoy.
Hey Jay, nice to see someone restoring and preserving the past. You do it through a fun and masculine media and I appreciate it.
I'm 53 and never really knew how these old steamers operated. Thanks so much for posting this.
Never get tired of watching these steam cars. Thanks for sharing Jay!
thank you for keeping old cars on the road
i just love what you are doing for all car guys and gals thank you J
A latecomer to classic cars on here I am amazed by the invention of Roland White, the sheer quality of the mechanical engineering of the steam cars and to think of the wonder of their owners now over 100 years ago is quite brilliant. I very much admire the fact that you are restoring and then driving them. I have always disliked going to a lot of car museums because the relics in there are never going to turn a wheel on the open road as was intended for them, they seem more like funeral parlours, wheras in your garage the cars are almost living and breathing wonders of automotive art. The oldest car I have owned only goes back to 1926, I owned a Canadian built Ford T that had been imported here, but one day I would love to own something older. You're enthusiasm is a great inspiration! My couple of years doing automotive engineering in college on more modern cars seems nothing really, compared with the real engineering of these beauties. I wish I could get an apprenticeship in your garage! :D Best wishes from the UK.
Back in the early '70's I met a chap in the Stockton area doing up a White steamer. Also heard a rumor of one in a barn up in S Dakota.....really??? Those were the days. How many have survived I wonder. Good luck with the 2 seater. What a jewel! Thanks again, Paul V Long Beach
The White company was based in Cleveland, Ohio and made steam cars... I guess you can say that this is a Cleveland Steamer.
(snicker)
Oh, man...You had to go there...LOL
LOLZ!
jay please turn your garage into a museum for the public someday your collection is amazing
I luv watching you operate those old steam cars.
I love that you are keeping history alive with the steam cars. Thanks
Steam Cars are my favorite types of cars. These are probably my favorite Jay Leno's Garage videos.
Hi Jay, I'm from Florida and never gave two thoughts about steam cars. Now that you have given us several introductions with them, I cant get enough of them... What a fantastic invention of that time... Keep doing what your doing and we as a country, through you, will have these cars around for a very long time to come... Thank you for all that you do to keep us car guys entertained...
thanks Jay, these cars are beautiful. It's so nice of you sharing them with us
Oh, man... The combination of green, brass, and wood is just beautiful on that vehicle.
Green? wtf?
Love the steam cars. Brilliant that you are saving and restoring them.
Love you steam cars! I remember a few of them around when I was growing up in the '50's but you only seem to see them in museums now-a-days. Thank you for keeping yours on the road.
A round of applause to your skilled craftsmen that help keep these gems rolling
Yes Jay we love your steam vehicles, it takes us down memory lane. Realistically we love any vehicle you show us, because real car people love all sorts of cars. You Tubers how about a thumbs up huh?
i love it when i watch these steam cars and engines running. i enjoy watching them. i also would love to see those old engines running inside your garage.
The simplicity on how he explains the operations of these steam cars is amazing .Great series.
Love the steamers. I'm a great fan of White sewing machines. I've got two of them, one being my grandmother's. I sew on them almost daily. Its great to see what they built for cars.
These steam powered videos are great. I can't get over the complexity, yet simplicity these machines really are
Wish I knew how to add an animated GIF to a RUclips comment. I made one of of Jay zipping through everything to get to the steam boiler. Love this show so much, Jay.
Hi Jay Love all your cars!! When I was growing up my neighbor in West Orange NJ had a Stanley Steamer that he was nice enough to giver us a ride in it. Something I will never forget! Please keep up all your great restorations. Your Fan Willy Dittmar
Mr. Leno, Your video of the steam cars is so very important to me. There is no casual opportunity to be exposed to the experience of early steam automobiles as valuable as these videos. The sights, sounds are really great. The opportunity to " ride along" and hear the nuanced sounds and get your explanation of operation is not possible otherwise unless you "know someone" who has a car. This is documentary cyclopedia for the enthusiast. Thanks, and let us in on other steamer efforts. Assembly, fabrication, troubleshooting. Please drive defensively!
Paul G. Seattle,Wa.
Nice to see you saving these steam cars. I’ve learned to appreciate old cars even more after watching this.
This is better than anything on TV! Bravo. Jay is certainly on the need to meet list someday
Thank you for your efforts. Seeing the cars driven, particularly the steam engines, is something I treasure. Your discussions of how and why your cars work makes you and your garage a national treasure.
I love steam engines. Especially like this White, with the sooooo clever mechanical controls and linkages, valves...amazing.
These Steam powered cars are real intresting to me. I never thought they were mass produced its cool seeing how well they were designed back them.
Awesome! Appreciate that your saving, restoring, and driving these cars from history that most of us would never have the opportunity to experience.
thank you jay for preserving the piece of history
Love the steam cars Jay.
Another car that I do not want to own but am very interested in the way they work. And I am glad the Jay and his team can keep these things going. Those blokes are learning as they go and seem to do a very good job.
I love your steam collection. It's always cool how you guys integrate better materials and recreate the original parts with the 3D printer. I wonder what a modern company today could create based on this technology while incorporating artificial intelligence. I wish you had more restoration blogs from beginning to end, because I could sit for hours watching even on the same car. I love seeing all the engineering you guys put into it.
I love all of your steam cars and the corresponding videos. Please keep making these videos.
I love the steam cars. The engineering involved is just incredible. I am glad that we have your site to give them some visibility.
Jay, of all the vehicles and other motor and items you feature in your garage, it is the heat engines and steam powered stationary and vehicles that I enjoy the most. Love it! Love it! Love it! Please, keep showcasing them.
If there anyone who knows about about cars.knows jay leno is one of the best..an he loves what he does.god bless u jay
I agree with MrHoopler. Nice to see someone driving these classic cars instead of letting them rot. The steam car is very interesting. I haven't watched any of the other steam car videos, but It was fun seeing how the steam car is run! Keep em comming!
I love the steam cars. the mechanical complexity is something else.
Love Mr Leno's cars and he seems to really enjoy driving them .he is also my favorite talk show hosts him and Mr Carson.
Jay, you are great and your love of cars is infectious.
YES...LOVE THESE STEAM CAR VIDEOS!!! Thank you for sharing and I hope to see more. I also love the rainy day stationary engine videos..old steam and hit -n-miss.. Thanks!
Its so awsome to come home from work. Set down to relax and watch one of your videos..I didn't realize that there was so many different steam cars. thanks so much for saving the past. Keep up the good work.
Love that you take us for rides in all these cars it's awesome
this is my new favorite show, and I started watching it after i saw the Comedians in car getting coffee episode with you and Jerry! I love learning more about automotive engineering of all kinds. Thank you for sharing your passion and the wisdom of you and your team
I may not be very old guy but I like all these different forms of transportation. THANKS JAY
I love watching your steam cars.
Thank You
That was awesome. I loved how granular you got about the workings of the car.
These restoration blogs are, hands down, my favorite episodes and I love all the other ones.
Beautiful piece of machinery, so glad there are people with the means and the passion to keep them rolling. Thanks for sharing Jay, it's much appreciated.
Wonderful cars! Have always loved classic cars and its great to see them loved and well cared for while still being used!!
i'm glad you're keeping these old cars on the road in working order jay cos usualy they're in a museum with a rope around em with a sign sayin do not touch, so its good your keepin them from that
Absolutely do enjoy seeing the steamers in action,and you obviously revel in your hobby,
