1932 Bowtie Deuce Roadster - Jay Leno's Garage

1932 Bowtie Deuce Roadster. Although this hot rod created for SEMA 2005 may seem a little bit Ford and little bit Chevy, its DNA is pretty much all Corvette. Go under the hood with Jay for an up-close look at the high-output LS7 engine, tuned up to deliver 580+ hp.

Just incredible. Hot rod could not be more "clean" than this. Fron all the car's Jay got this is one is on my top 10 by far.

[@ikarus342000]

I read yesterday in a German car magazine "The engine is for many more as the mover, he is the hart“. Of course he is, what else? No car shows this better as your beautiful Bowdie Deuce Roadster. Thanks for showing us so many special cars.

[@nezerac]

"Especially when you have a big face!" This is why Jay Leno is impossible to hate. lol. He takes his shots at people but he takes his shots at himself as well! XD

[@gf4353]

Self deprecating. !!!!!

[@axedaddyx]

"The Holy Grail of Hot Rodding" !! What a piece of Rod roadster, a work of art!

[@randallmelvin8295]

This roadster is the missing link for Chevy guys. It has a Ford body with the backbone, heart & soul, and the chevy touches thoughout this roadster to be a Chevy. There's not a lot manufactures building hot rod replica's of this era for the die hard Chevy fans or any other major brands for that matter. It's great to see the thoughtfulness that went into this roadster to not only title it as a true Chevy using an orginal frame. But to maintain Chevy stock corvette emblems, suspension parts, grille, interior gauges, wheels, and more. It's a true tribute to what a 1932 Chevy hot rod roadster could be in a world where most Chevy guys have to settle for a full Ford replica with just a Chevy powerplant in it. Jay Leno's 1932 Chevy Roadster is bad to the bowtie!

[@TerribleTimes]

the world is a better place cause of Jay Leno

[@aidy6000]

I do prefer it when Jay talks about his own cars because he puts far more effort in because he actually likes them

[@thehospitalguy1657]

Fell in love with 32 fords when I was 7 or 8 years old. A neighbor, Bob Anderson, May he forever rest in peace, had one that had been in Hot Rod magazine three different times under three different builds. The last build he had put in a Chevy 350 to power the car. His was a three window coupe with the rumble seat which I always thought was so cool. He sold the car when he found out that he had cancer. Always hoped to find it myself and put it in my garage. This car, the Corvette inspired 32 Ford is an amazing build. Would love to have one just like it.

[@MrPist0ler0]

I don't care what anyone says, this is one sick deuce coupe! Love it Jay! :)

[@Mr94Corvette]

10:53 living vicariously through Mr Leno. Thank you sir. That car makes me smile. "will it do a burnout? I'm pretty confident" hahaha, love it.

[@zombiedogdotcom]

Ears exploded at 2:43 :/

[@fishhuntadventure]

-you are undecided about that?

[@drummerdoingstuff5020]

I felt that..

[@drummerdoingstuff5020]

@@fishhuntadventure I'm pretty sure our ears actually exploded....

[@sanjose6018]

OH MY THAT BEAUTIFUL SOUND... SO classy

[@formerfarmer1718]

Jay, I have no……zero……..criticism of you. Only admiration. Not envy! Admiration‼️👍

[@RLabbe508]

Another old school guy that lived in Andover for 15 years, great car!

[@a.brounz]

Jay, don't explain yourself. If someone watching isn't sure why you chose a six speed, then in my opinion, they don't deserve to be watching this channel. You're the greatest Jay

[@chinaman69.1]

get off his nuttz

[@a.brounz]

+Berna La why you talking about nuts for bro?

[@kirkrogers6968]

This is such an amazing car, I really love it. I volunteer to drive it once a week for you Jay. No burn outs.

[@Sigtyr1]

Jay looks right in this car, I love the E-types the most but I swear he gives a zen vibe riding around in this!

[@MegaScott]

the dude running the Audio mixer needs to push up the Jay Channel allot more...

[@theone31man]

Jay's cars are the best. They mix the old and the new for incredible rides.

[@cottonfarmer123]

I've watched every video. This is by far my favorite car. LS7 + 6 speed man= awesome. Nice job

[@jhonunderwood5975]

Jay, stick with the six speed gearbox. I'm old school too. This is a fun hot rod.

[@elichaimenasherov722]

I'm with you guys

[@SpyderSeven]

Where's the line? It's got a Corvette crate motor, a completely torn out suspension, power windows, disk brakes, and semi slick tires, but a gearbox that makes the car faster is suddenly "not old school"? A car is either old-school or it's not, and this car is definitely not old school just because it has a Tremec. Nothing against manuals, they're fun, but I think it's pretty nonsense to talk like a semi-auto would suddenly cross the line from purebred classic deuce to whatever y'all are talking about. That line was crossed way before he even chose a gearbox.

[@kylekunkel5343]

HAS TO BE A STANDARD SHIFT! Thank you for sharing all of your AWESOME car's, and motorcycles and all of your SO cool mechanical engineering marvels!!!!!!!

[@mountainmandale1587]

What an absolute sweet thing that is! Gotta love a deuce coupe!! I love you, Jay! You're my hero.

[@PHAT50CHEVY]

This is at least the 3rd time I've watched this episode i love this car the fact that you put a full hideaway top and power widows in it just makes it a usable car and the stuff u did to it in 05 makes it even better thanks Jay

[@pettyofficerwelch]

That LS7 provides all the tunes you need.

[@robertstevens770]

Mmmmmmm....... mostly I don't care that much for hot rods . . . . . . but this thing is a work of art! Really. There are no unnecessary lines, no arbitrary embellishments yet it fulfills its function perfectly and invites the observer into a new experience. Mies van der Rohe would be proud.

[@JonnyFlash80]

Thank God it's a stick. Hat's off to you Jay for appreciating a manual gearbox.

[@TheDutchGame]

I love how happy he looks when he cruises by.

[@DrewBrda]

Just a beautiful car. That color is to die for. Thanks Jay.

[@Jt67outtriggers]

THAT thing is SICK , thats a perfect paint setup.

[@santanamauricio]

A lot of criticism on here. They are his cars, he can do what he bloody well likes with them

[@quintili1]

Sure, nobody is saying he can't... People are also free to criticize them. I love 99% of the cars on here. This one, not so much.

[@colehara]

I like the Chevy flip open cooling vents on the engine side panels. They were a great idea.

[@fishhuntadventure]

No, I get it. I love a standard transmission

[@choprjock]

After 50 years of driving, (all 2-doors with manual transmissions), I finally bought a 4-door, automatic. It's the 10th vehicle I've ever owned. I kept #9 though. Just for fun. :-)

[@aaronweaver902]

I'm 22 years old Jay and I get it buddy I get it gotta love goin through the gears

[@ronerkkila8245]

I enjoy watching Jay have so much fun with his cars....

[@EricTheOld]

What a beautiful ride, sweet paint and well put together. Thanks for sharing Jay!

[@ezra3132]

Hi Jay this is one of my favourite sites ,I enjoy the fact that you always take the cars for a drive.Your collection of cars is great ,the passion you have for cars is wonderful and you see the good in all type of cars.Really a wonderful site

[@Silverboy005]

Whoever told you to put paddle shifters on a deuce deserves a slap on the face 😂 lol

[@pistolannie6500]

Listen to the sound of that thing gooo by! Awesome!... Love It!

[@whosedatguy]

This is how you do a Rod ! Just perfect ! Beautiful.... Done right !

[@jeffreysokal7264]

That is one beautiful rod. Probably the finest I've seen. Kudos, Jay.

[@waynemontpetit8181]

I like how he can't say "It's really fast" without giggling 😂😂

[@tonyclifton474]

my favorite body style of all time. jay has excellent taste.

[@transpro85]

Agreed shifting makes you feel more connected to the vehicle more in control of the machine and its a hell of alot more fun

[@MUV4TRUK4]

This is my fav car, seen on this channel by far

[@rashadsmith3435]

Awesome car! I love going through the gears. There is nothing like driving a car with a proper "old school" manual transmission!

[@dustinwegner853]

I love that it is a manual. Like he said everyone puts automatics for ease. I bought a 283 Chevy with a 4 speed for my 32 roadster.

[@marcuscompton3772]

I'm positive you've worked your butt off for many years and it's sure paid off! You have the coolest toys any man could dream about.

[@gogogeedus]

My Dad had a A model roadster when he was a young fellow, he and his mate were on an interstate road trip and a cop stepped out onto the road in front of them, the old man hit the mechanical brakes and the police officer had to jump for his life as they went sailing by, they pulled up about 100 yards down the road,he reversed back to see if the P/O was still alive and was told by the Police man to keep going because it was so fast for an A model that it must be in good nick. I think he may have been in shock.

[@swoosh50]

Jay is the Man and a class act! Seriously one of the most grounded Hollywood celebrities

[@timothytaylor8870]

Gorgeous! Glad you have it!

[@squareyes1981]

I've watched most of the episodes that have been made so far and THIS is the one car I really want to drive. It looks like real hoot!

[@bowtiefidenine]

Love the look of the Deuce Bowtie. Has a great sound too.

[@StereoSpace]

So Awesome. That was a lot of fun.

[@myrnyocom3344]

12-21-13 -- WOW - THIS 1932 BOWTIE DEUCE ROADSTER - WAS DESIGNED & MANUFACTURED BEFORE I WAS BORN IN 1938 :O

[@vindigga6]

I wonder how his mic picks up his talking but doesnt get drowned out by the open wind passing through. Impressive.

[@gearheadaddict]

Agreed! Manual gearbox is the only way to go!

[@trigas55]

Awesome car that was well designed and executed. Thanks for sharing.

[@camaromattflorida1291]

Its good to see that someone can make a roadster without all of the tubing sticking out of the car. Wish i had the kind of money Leno does because I would be doing the exact same things he is!

[@Stan7670]

Just a beautiful, beautiful car. Boy, it's good to be King.

[@king0dasouf]

Damn you Jay Leno!!!! Why must you live the life I dream of!!!

[@EvilSSP]

Being a Ford man, I really can't believe you'd own a Ford with so much Chevy stuff on it. All Ford/Chevy debates aside, there are plenty of awesome Ford parts that could be on that car to keep it all one brand.

[@Lordaniel899]

I've only recently "discovered" Jay Leno's Garage - on KZbin. What a really fanastic show! Jay is so much more the genuine petrolhead enthusiast than the smarty pants boys on Top Gear. Jay, i don't know if you ever get to either read or know about these Comments, but thanks so much for sharing your with us your world of motor vehicles - a few more bikes would be good. Cheers Stephen

[@DrAL00isin]

Just clean clean clean, it actually takes a lot of work to get a car that clean, especially the engine compartment. I love that look without a bunch of stuff hanging all over the place. Nice.

[@decencywarrior9598]

Silver streaking . Gene and Richard would be proud .

[@johanmouton2449]

How I like cars to be: without a spec of dirt - fantastic!! Lovely car, love the colour too

[@donfredette533]

Jay is just the nicest guy for being well off..jay always keeps it real...

[@roncollins9678]

Good to see you Jay really enjoy your videos!!

[@supersportrsz28]

wow that blue pearl is amazingly beautiful

[@tyrssen1]

Wow ... super-clean design! A proper hot rod, for sure!

[@707alibaba]

Back in the 80's I had a friend who had 35 1934 Fords in a barn in Saskatchewan. jay would have loved to see inside that barn

[@ricardsiagian4352]

overall sleek, simple, solid, and got powah!

[@amaron]

jay should fire his audio guy. audio on these videos are just aweful

[@m2350]

Ron Morales no kidding. I just got my ears blown off at 2:40

[@ABCDEFGHIJKELA...]

Ron Morales Ron, I am so happy someone agrees with me on that. His videos have the worst audio I've heard for something being so well made otherwise. half the time i can't hear what Jay is saying, and when I turn the volume up, suddenly my eardrums blow out when he speaks up, as well as the hisses and static spikes here and there. I think it's ok to expect more from these videos, as I think Jay would agree, but he's such a good dude, he probably sticks with the audio guy for other personal, friendship reasons, and not so much for being a professional.

[@cebruthius]

+m2350 I was sipping tea from my mug and I barely escaped chipping a tooth

[@m2350]

mikokuijn that makes me cringe even thinking about it. I can't stand that feeling.

[@Z-Twinturbo]

I see that a lot in his 2012 videos. Glad its been dealt with since

[@Phil45-70]

Jay hasn't stayed in his lane in any video yet. lol

[@carlosoliveira-rc2xt]

So true and drives forever with his turn signal on.

[@gf4353]

And he never has license plates on his street driving cars. DIPLOMAT IMMUNITY. !!!!!

[@nscalefun]

EXCELLENT JOB ON YOUR RIDE!!!!! I would love to own one someday. Thank you for sharing and keep up the good work.

[@bigkarl24]

So glad to c a car that's not a rat rod

[@RealtorRod64]

This car is awesome, fabulous, amazing, I love it.

[@modelleg]

Thank you for sharing a bit of your enviable life, Jay "Big Face" Leno.

[@og_ice_freezer]

You jealous, bro?

[@commalTl]

this becoming my fav auto show

[@GamerX240]

GOD I'd love to drive and own this car! Absolutely amazing. And like its already been said, Thank you for building a stick shift hot rod.

[@lancedaniels]

Thanks for posting. Really enjoy your channel.

[@Mr94Corvette]

watched the burnout twice, love it.

[@ronaldwilliford301]

Nice Hot Rod Roadster Jay! Very nice car!

[@capnthepeafarmer]

I love how the floors are dirty. Shows that Jay actually drives the car.

[@bigkarl24]

That paint looks sick

[@harveyge1]

Absolutely exquisitely beautiful car !

[@DJMotoVlogs]

I agree with the stick shift comment Jay! I love my 6MT G35 Sedan, daily drive that thing in NY traffic and I LOVE it!

[@RushFan1095]

i really love that paint job

[@hzrzainal]

that...is the cleanest engine bay i have ever seen.

[@scottmarshall2297]

I would sell my soul for this ride...it's perfect JAY

[@rickvervoort9536]

Stunning paint.

[@sickjohnson]

Wow, that is a sweet car Jay! Lust is a MAX!

[@johnd746]

I agree. Stick shift is a lot more fun to drive. So we both are old school, and that is fine with me.

[@overindexed]

LOOKED GREAT WITH THE TOP UP! ALSO

[@TheHomeExpert5]

Anybody who says get an automatic transmission is not a real car guy. Simple as that. There is nothing like a manual transmission. This car is awesome.

[@_Diggler]

Looks like Jay does indeed drive it. Nice!

[@pnkflyd61]

Seriously sweet ride!

[@PoltergeistWorks]

Amazing Hot Rod Jay, this would be my dream vehicle ! I love the combination of old school design and modern technology. Oh and for the person below asking about the seat belts - it has seat belts, but they clamp on Your waist area (look closely).

[@jootai]

honnestly,if i would break into his garage, i wouldnt even know what to take! Such a nice collection of nice cars!

[@MrBadHabbit2]

Wow Jay has all the cool toys!
