1950 Mercedes Benz Racecar Transporter - Jay Leno's Garage

[@alg9553]

Kinda cool is an understatement. This transporter is one of the cooler cars I've seen.

[@iokarus]

This is basically my favorite vehicle ever!

[@BijahD]

All-time cool award right there.....

"The ramp is collapsing" (beneath my million-dollar Mercedes race car), spoken as if commenting on the weather. Jay is truly a class act. Thanks so much for your down-to-earth attitude, and for sharing your fabulous car collection with us.

That was painful

[@Detail56]

Very Very Painful but respect for not editing it out. Thats why I keep watching Jays videos A+++++++

[@LazyCookPete]

As a Brit I have only seen glimpses of his other life as a comedian and talk show host. I'm really impressed with Jay's reverence and respect for the great engineers, designers and renovators who dedicate their lives to creating and restoring these wonderful historic vehicles. Jay comes across as a genuine guy who sees himself as curator and custodian of some of the worlds most coveted vehicles. The result is a very watchable series, like a book I just can't put down!

[@dorothyford6616]

Pete T. Yes, the history of the car itself so interesting. When he gets into the designers, engineers , etc. just blows me away! Seriously hooked on Jays channel.

[@conorkennedy3304]

This stuff is better than his talk show.

[@richsackett3423]

The work he's done for automotive history far outstrips his work in comedy. Good new is he made enough money doing comedy to pursue something that really matters.

[@jackjmaheriii]

I watch these videos every week and I see all these negative comments making fun of Jay and making fun of other commenters and it really kind of makes me mad. He doesn't have to share these things with us. It's not like he needs the fame and I bet with production costs this channel is only breaking even. We even get to see things when they don't go perfect. So if you're the kind of person who likes to leave angry comments, do what you got to do. But please take a second to stop appreciate all the hard work Jay’s team goes through so we can appreciate the vehicles and the people who made them.

[@EdMiF]

Because KZbin is FULL of knuckleheads, Just like Facebook.

[@SIXPACFISH]

Jay is a big boy and a real comedian, So he knows how to take a joke. But with the commenters the ability to tell a joke varies. I think most people are trying to be funny, But most people don't have much comic talent. Speaking of talent, my brother in law is a talent agent. He told me about the strangest act he ever saw last week.......

[@bneyens]

I get the feeling Jay is specifically using these videos as a future preservation tool. One day sadly Jay will be gone, and his cars auctioned off (hopefully on many decades). You KNOW that each of these videos will be played with the car, and will be treasured by the future owner. It's almost like Jay is speaking directly into the future.

[@owman666]

jay has got enough money in the bank to secure all his cars in a museum. he will probably do that

[@SoLDMG]

I'd like to hope Jay has a fund and someone willing to look after his collection. He sure has the money.

[@samhaines8228]

Well said!

[@Scouter98]

very insightful thought. I've heard Jay mention several times the cars will be here long after we are gone.

[@cerealkilla8930]

Whether or not you like Jay, think he's funny, appreciate his work, style of entertainment, etc. you have got to love his love for cars.

[@Loulovesspeed]

@Cereal Killa - I'll go one step further and say how can you not like this man! He's great, and I'm sure glad he has such a passion and knowledge of great, historic cars. Leno rules!

[@anthonygordon9483]

For sure. Leno was collecting cars before he got the tonight show. I remember him riding one of his Harley's on the Late Show when he was nothing more than a guest. He use to travel his comedy tours on his Harley. Even if he never got NBC money he would still own alot of cars.

[@badgerflorida9182]

I'm sure he was cringing from that scrape that they put on the underside of the gullwing, but it was neat seeing him give the "no big deal". That's one of the big reasons why I admire him and his shop and all these videos he shares - he drives and uses his stuff, doesn't just polish and stare at them. That scrape just adds to the patina. Thanks for sharing this Jay.

[@andrewgates9333]

His crew can polish it and send it somewhere if it needs new chrome.

[@georgekeats1478]

Jay, if you're reading this, I just wanted to say how much admiration I have for you. And it's not the usual admiration for a Hollywood star because I really don't have any admiration for any of those people. It's admiration for what a normal, regular person you are despite being a Hollywood star. I admire your love for vehicles, your knowledge of them and the way you present this show. You must have had numerous fights with executives who have wanted to hide the occasional imperfections that crop up (like the scratch in today's episode). These people always want to present a sanitized, squeaky clean image of life, even while presenting a reality show. I want you to know that there are people out there (I am one) who greatly appreciate the fact that you show it like it was filmed..like it occurred. A true reality show. I watch every episode. Keep up the good work. There are very few people I subscribe to on KZbin but I will always be a subscriber to this show. ...a Canadian fan in St. Catharines, Ontario

@@Denstoradiskmaskinen The extreme over hang of the front end was designed so the wheelbase could be made as short as practical, which makes it significantly easier to maneuver in paddock areas. Smart fellers those Krauts!

[@hansbertilsson5208]

This car was built by my mothers cousin Sigge Petersson. He lived in in a place called Kaxholmen 7 km north of Husqvarna in Sweden. He also owned a Mercedes 300 SL from 1955. I do not know what happened to that car when he died but it is really cool that this car ended up at Jay Leno.

[@jimbradshaw4]

One of my favourite episodes - just enthralling to watch. And to actually have been given that trophy by the great Fangio....just wow.

[@addictedtopiano]

Very cool vehicle. The Netflix reference hit right in the heart. Yes Jay, you still got it.

[@foreignerhill]

That front overhang is insane. How does the suspension not collapse?

[@RoverWaters]

and the frame

[@GlendonG]

Airbag suspension . Just like a semi . That little truck isn't anywhere near heavy enough to overcome those bags ! Must ride awful funny , though , beyond just the steering happening behind you .

[@ekner]

The centre of gravity is probably very similar to a big front wheel drive car, so the suspension would be fine. Think lorry suspension, really heavy duty stuff. As far as the design decision of making it with such a huge overhang... Crash safety would be like if you put an egg on the nose of a brick and drove it around like that, lol :P That's taking into account the materials and design styles of the time. A modern version of that transporter could be as safe as any new lorry if you really wanted to make it.

[@jospi2]

The engine is above the front wheels. So it's not a front engined truck and the cab doesn't weigh that much.

[@dandel351]

The same way the over hang on the front of a bus works mate, front structure is not carrying any major mechanical components.

[@bwest6275]

I know it's debatable, but IMHO this is the COOLEST in your collection Jay. I mean the other cars are great but this....WOW this is awhile different level of COOL.

A million dollar car on a one of a kind reproduction truck and, at 3:45, he opens a hatch to reveal the tie down straps, in a reused cardboard box they got in the mail. That's down to earth garage stuff, but, with a pair this nice, I think you should upgrade to a milk crate. Love the show Jay, I watch every one.

[@insaneillegalzombie]

The rainbow sheikh's collection comes close to Jay's.

[@boilerhousegarage]

Mine's pretty diverse if you consider the volume to wealth ratio! :-D But seriously, no. Jay's got some Edwardian steam thing parked next to a 1950s racing car, next to an electric carriage, next to an early 90s hot hatch, next to an exotic 80s supercar, next to a prewar land speed record breaker... it just goes to each and every extreme. Brilliant!

Sir Leno, loved the car loader thank you for sharing it. I was scared every time you opened or closed the engine cover because it looked as if you were going to take out the back of the cab. Did it feel as if you were driving a teeter-totter with the wheels so far back, it looked as if you were bouncing pretty good. Again - thanks for showing us this amazing project It was a pleasure to watch and your love for the carrier showed through.

[@Markle2k]

Back up to 12:25 There is no scratch. But it happened right where Jay was supposed to be watching so he has no one to blame but himself. Note that there is a break in the video so some expletives were probably uttered in the interim before he resumed his talk-show host unflappability.

[@igkgigoh]

The fact that they crushed the original Transporter is insane. I'd reinforce it a little bit so loading and unloading will get safer, because that scratch was really shocking, good thing that gullwing isn't fully restored yet. Why not go for a little more power? It's a transporter but the real thing wasn't called the Renntransporter for no reason and I'd really like to see one of those going at a 100 mp/h

[@igkgigoh]

Yeah .. An AMG engine :D Then the truck is louder and probably faster than the 300 sl on top of it. Why are you people so angry about this? The guys who decided to destroy obviously made a bad choice, everyone does, it wasn't some perfidious plan they followed, And come on, those "CEOs" didn't pay anything, the Renntransporter was crushed about 50 years ago, I don't think one of them is still working

[@57WillysCJ]

People don't think of future values on what seems junk. Heck I see things all the time that I trashed as a kid and it's now worth something. I have a friend in his late 70s that is a real car guy and saved many things but he is really sad to think of when he was a kid how many of those old cars he cut up with a torch for a guy that sold scrap metal. They wouldn't have more than scrap value for 30-50 years. Think about what you throw away today as junk and what it could be worth in 50 years. Then again in 50 years it might still be junk.

*As a comedian, an automobile collector, historian & buff, a restorer, the literal 'savior' of automobile of many different types and designs, rare automobiles that would otherwise have been left to decay, or worse, be destroyed. Mr. Leno has done more for our collective automobile history that he should be honored with an award by the combined world's auto manufacturers, (or what's left of them, anyway) And, just for being a regular guy, a good man that happened to make it BIG. However, even though I truly admire and respect Jay for so many and varied reasons... Mr, Leno is really one of the most truly absentminded drivers I've ever seen drive a car! lol. He rarely stays in one lane, always veering off into the next lane! He's a true 'Sunday Driver' lol!

Wow, that front end overhang is extreme. Spoon drains and humps would be a big issue, even with the front air bags up full. Weird that Mercedes made something like that. The way it was bouncing around at street speeds makes 100mph sound rather scary. Interesting vehicle.

I have the 1:43 and the 1:64 scale replica of the transporter. The 1:18 scale version costs an arm and a leg. What a vehicle!

[@jimf5160]

Great vehicle. I have seen the one in the Mercedes Museum and thought it was the coolest truck.

[@AndrewJToth]

Jay, thanks for constantly broadening our automotive vocabulary. Once again, you highlighted a vehicle most of us never knew existed. I love this transporter with its beautiful curves! How long did it take for you to calibrate to the steering with the front wheels so far back?

[@alexmartinez280]

Way to keep it together Jay. I might have lost my cool to witness that gauging.

[@donovanlucibello379]

I love how Jay, a real car guy's car guy, does not put some emotion evoking sound track or other antics to "jazz up" the video. It is just Jay flipping through pictures & talking about car craft - simple, love it!

[@michaelsmartin5388]

I'm just so glad you share these unique and wonderful cars, trucks and memories. Thank you Big Time

[@muddshshshark]

Jay, you are the best. You can take anyone on a trip to the garage and make almost any car dream come true. Especially for the guys that are limited on funds you complete the dream with info and a ride in the car. With respect to Carson you were the greatest on the Tonight Show! May you keep motoring for many many years!

Jay I might be late joining your channel but I love it. I watch Netflix and do a lot of crafting while watching. Now I watch your videos while doing crafting. I multitask 😁😁

[@13lueBomber]

#JayLeno, I absolutely LOVE this KZbin channel. Jay, you have one hell of a channel, and a vehicle collection, obviously. Please keep on putting out these AWESOME videos! Also, get Dennis in there too! #MyClassicCar

[@mmuussiiccmmaann69]

I like this guy so much !!! I did not have a chance to know him as a show man, only as a car collector ! And I could listen to him talking about his collection non stop for hours !

[@machinemanbaltimore]

I'm so glad we have Jay taking on the preservation of the cars and the men behind the cars. He is in a unique position that most of us cannot afford to do and I applaud him for his efforts.
