Every time I watch Leno’s car collection video’s I can’t help but wonder who will inherit this amazing collection when he passes. Leno has so much passion for the cars he has in his collection and it’s sad to think they’ll all be sold off to the highest bidder the moment he’s gone.

@@Shoultes Maybe you should go investigate the backstory on that car. It is what makes it so special. Remember this car was made in the early 1960's. Jay recently had to have the turbine rebuilt because it would no longer start. Oddly enough the original maker of the Chrysler turbine engine is still in business making helicopter turbines and they redid it for him. Also it was made as a passenger vehicle with a run of 55 of them. It was not specialty run of 1 like your jetbike. A turbine isn't necessarily a JET engine.

If I were a 'car enthusiast' and wanted 'untouchable classic cars'... I'd buy me a 1980s Yugo in good condition. I'd have it restored and modified: Low-rider shocks, 2-speed manual transmission, 165 horsepower supercharged, dual exhausts, neon pink and purple exterior paint job and custom purple teflon seats... I'd put subwoofers into the sound system and showcase Billy Idol's LP, "Cyberpunk," full-blast. The next thing I'd do would be to 'pilfer' a totally trashed 'junk-yard' 1972 Dodge Charger from somewhere on the Sioux Indian reservation. I'd break some of the windows and the rear view mirrors, making the exterior even more 'gnarly' than it already was...and take a sledgehammer and pound in big dents all over the steel exterior. Spray paint it purple, maroon, and brown...very unevenly, giving it a distinct and uncomely look. Install a 625 supercharged hemi engine, and poke holes over all the leather seating... Custom tire rims and jack up the custom made chassis and springs, so that ground clearance was 8 inches higher than stock, making for a much rougher and grittier ride...

"A truck axle in the front, for improved torque". (in a rear wheel drive car). Uh... Who writes the text for these? That's not the only problem, but probably the worst. Saying the long name of the vehicle, then immediately saying, "the ______ _______ _______ ________ _______ again, to start the description. It's just poor writing. Once you've announced the long name, just follow up by saying, "this car...." Oh, and it's good to know that every one of these vehicles runs on gasoline! Thanks. (sarcasm). It WAS interesting to learn that Jay has 190 cars and 160 motorcycles in his collection.

Why did they show a steam engine during the roadmaster section 6:16. That is for a steam car. Lack of attention when editing a video. Of course this whole video is just a regurgitation of everything already gone over by Jay Leno's garage. I'd recommend just going there and looking at videos versus trusting anything you see on this one. The last vehicle in number 1 spot is two different vehicles. The narrator describes the one that Jay doesn't own. He owns the tank car that has the Sherman air cooled motor from a tank in it. I don't think he owns the one described.

The Corvair suffered from failing rubber seals and o-rings due to high operating temps. Later "Viton" seals came out for the pushrod tubes after the production run. Those that didn't get the upgrade died an oily mess and smoking nasty heater. The fan belt was prone to failure. Many owners gave up on them Stingers cost about the same as the new 911's so only about 200 total were sold and some do it yourself kits. They took the D-class SCCA championship two years in a row against TR-6's and Porsches I seem to recall. Seal and belt failure were main causes of the downfall IMO.
