I have seen more hours of Jay Leno's garage than any of his late night work.

[@zloychechen5150]

And i don't think he's a particularly good comedian either))) But he's a truly likeable chap, and his car taste is immaculate.

[@micksterboone4517]

Way better than watching Hollyweird "celebrities".

[@stuartpenney6829]

I think Jay, Conan and Letterman represent the golden age of US late night talk/comedy. All three were the best at what they did in my opinion

[@troynov1965]

Yeah Carson was the best, anything after him has been nothing but a dog and pony show.

[@afrog2666]

Same, and I have enjoyed it more as well ;)

[@simonrostron6626]

This, for me, is the most beautiful car I've ever seen.

[@greatloverofmusic1]

Well said lol.

[@chrisk8187]

An absolutely glorious car! So subtle, refined and elegant body design. Literally one of the most aesthetically beautiful cars made. NOT fussy or gimmicky. Thank you Jay!

[@bluetoad2001]

beautiful car, the paint color is fantastic, pure Italian

[@RB747domme]

buzz kirschner the paint is probably my favourite thing about this car. And the knock off wire wheels, sparkling in the California sunshine. Absolutely gorgeous car.

[@MasterMalrubius]

@@RB747domme This was one of the cars I first fell in love with. I came across a picture of one when I was a kid, maybe in the early 70's before I'd ever heard of Ferrari and only knew of American muscle cars. I fell in love with the style of the car. I agree the paint is fantastic. I'm not sure which year but there is one in the Blackhawk museum near S.F. Ca. A great visit if you enjoy historic cars.

[@rpinarreta]

Gorgeous design, paint and great sound. Incredible having 5psd, electric windows and fuel injection back in 1962.

[@dustyrusty7956]

A beautiful car. The Italians have the "eye" for style.

[@Zeusdattilo]

+Dusty Rusty Thank you Dusty. I'm Italian and we have many defects, but , as you say we have eye for the style. I love particularly the 60's style for cars. Pls, have a look to Ferrari 275 GTB.

@Carl Pyper Thanks Carl. I loved your nice comments. Very kind of you. That's the nice side of KZbin.

To Jay's film crew: you've really, truly stepped up your game and it's infinitely more fun to watch. Your use of stills when showing gauges and knobs, down to the documentary-like shallow depth of field, is just perfect and matches the elegance of the vehicles themselves. For many of us, this is the closest we'll ever get to cars of this caliber; your efforts really give us a better understanding and appreciation for these incredible works of art. Thanks!

[@markaustin4370]

Beautiful car!. I LOVE how hard Jay works to keep cars as original as possible. We'll never know and experience what it was like to drive historic cars without doing this excellent work. I saw a really funny video of modern teenagers offered $1000 if they could successfully place a call on a rotary phone. I took my driving test in a 1968 Land Rover 88. Manual transmission with no syncromesh between 1&2 , manual choke, no power brakes or steering. Come on 18 year olds, I dare you!

[@Buttnut105]

These are my favorite JLG videos, where Jay showcases his personal cars. Whenever he drives something new, especially something new he doesn't own, he seems pretty bored and doesn't hide it too well. Classics are the way to go and Jay knows how to pick 'em.

Your use of respectful overtones, down to the director-like knowledge of filming techniques, is just perfect and matches the elegance of the vehicles themselves. For many of us, this is the closest we'll ever get to a commentator of this caliber, your efforts really give us a better understanding and appreciation of the mind of an incredible educated viewer.

[@chrisjuneau8905]

when i first look at it, it reminds me of james bond's 63 aston martin db5. only at first glance. i love it!

[@bigteddybear5962]

Kinda seems to have some Austin Healy in her too.

[@newerafrican]

I had to google a db5 because I thought the same thing. Kinda similar. Beautiful color and WHEELS. For 1/3 the price, though, I'd take an XKE in '63. Now the prices have probably reversed.

[@iosonofreddy]

i think the db5 was coached in italy by touring milano

[@joeziadan]

More like a DB4

[@TheArkDoc]

Drooling. This is my favorite Italian car from the 1960s.

The best thing about Jay is he has all these fancy expensive cars and actually drives them like they were made to be driven

[@Eng1neering]

When I think of "vintage" cars, I will think of this from now on. Truly beautiful.

[@leewhitworth9142]

I adore this car and Maserati overall. There's something about this car that's simple, but awesome.

[@poplaurentiu4148]

The old cars made by Maserati are way much pretty and better developed inside-out.. the modern ones keep only the famous noise true original to remind the brand philosophy of attention to detail because the rest : shapes, quality of materials, electrics, and everything else is rubbish what a shame for such epic brand..

[@jimburig7064]

This car was a real find unmolested in a shipping container for decades. A beautiful car.

I don't typically comment, Mr. Leno. But that car is positively stunning.

[@branon6565]

That car is absolutely gorgeous....

[@thomashall2491]

Great video as usual, Mr. Leno. The world is a better place because of you. It is wonderful that you are dramatically improving and preserving such a vast array of automotive history.

[@reesepayton9984]

In Verona, Italy with NATO assignment for 3+ years from 1959-62, my dad succumbed to the seduction of the Maserati factory only about 30 miles away in Modena and bought a light silver metallic gray 3500 GT, with 3 dual-barrel Webers (prior to fuel injection available on Maserati). We'd drive down to the factory to have the car serviced, then test driven by a factory race driver who would attach a "PROVA" (test) plate over the license plate, belt my dad or me in, and roar through town, disregarding all speed limits posted, and approve of the performance after service, etc.! I rode once on such a test drive and the amazing bucket seats in the Maserati kept me solidly in the leather, never once bounced up ! My mom drove the car in town in Verona, going to the base or hair salon, too -- and once was doing about 70 mph in town, not figuring out how to get it out of second gear. LOLOL She had spirit! Autostrada, country roads, and eventually across the USA from New York to California with my four brothers and my mom in a passenger car and my dad and I alternating driving on the US highways at legal speeds. Kept the car one more year in the USA, then my dad who had just retired from the USAF decided the price of parts and upkeep in the US was going to be unaffordable for him settling in with a family on retirement pay, etc. So he sold it unfortunately. But before that, I remember driving it one night through a drive-in like Big Bob's or something, and around the parked cars-- and a scream from a teen boy could be heard: "It's a MASERATI!!!!!!" -- I had to grin and act nonchalant -- but it was truly an amazing and satisfying car while we owned it! Sad to have it go -- but the Italian bug was strong -- so we got an Alfa Romeo Giulia spyder, which I drove to college in Sacramento. Then I sold it and bought a rare Alfa Giulia Sprint Special and kept that for years (see the Jay Leno video comments for more on that -- on his video about the Giulia SS. Che Bella!

[@Jhananigans]

Finally, a Maserati on the show! And a great one too!

[@geriatricmotorcars9516]

This is Jays calling in life ' As a Brit ' only saw him whilst in the States on holiday . On the late show , which I found by accident ' Never got the Humour , But man , that was the vehicle ' that allowed this Car nut of the People ' to really shine and give something back to the likes of me :)

Jim Hall is a master mechanic and builder. Yet, he dresses normally and wears old worn out tennis shoes. Awesome! That's how you can tell a man who really knows his stuff. He looks like my Uncle, who was a master plumber. They'd call his company in when they had a new high rise apt building that needed plumbing, and had water pressure issues, flooding, etc. He dressed like Jim, normally and was the most humble man you'd ever meet...yet he made over $200,000 a year. Still lived in an old smaller house and drove a 15 year old Dodge truck. We miss Him.

[@matthew83pearce]

That would be the most epic car show in all of history.

[@carluvrsd9374]

I had a friend with one of these back in the early 80s. Same color but a little newer. It had gorgeous brown leather that looked great with this blue. Same wire wheels too. It's really cool to hear the engine again. This was a totally awesome video Jay, thank you. I think this is the best sounding straight 6 ever, like having a leopard under the hood. Very sexy. He paid less than $5k for it.

It's fun learning things from someone who is talking at our level. Thanks for your highly entertaining and educational show!

Exactly what I've been thinking watching these videos. I really couldn't of said it any better myself. they really do strike the perfect balance between knowledge and accessibility. and his passion is so clear is makes everything that bit more involving. I have to say as well his choice of guests is perfect - he always gets all the right people for the right cars to really make the story and information to life

hi Jay I really love watching your videos specially on restoration cars I own a 1973 BMW 2002 that it was given to me by my father I hope someday to be able to restore it its been in the garage for the past 10 years I know it takes a lot of money to restore of these vehicles that the dream that I have to be able to do it especially because it was a gift from my father

[@malcolmgay2967]

I hear all the trouble and engineering challenges your engineering team had with the British fuel injection and I had the same experience with the rebuild of my Lucas injected Triumph TR6 fuel system. I had the good fortune to have Mark Trounson & Graham Rundle (RIP) work their magic. Never compromise, it's worth the effort and money. It also helps, to have Mark's perfectionist attitude to engine building, blue printing and balancing.

[@camaromattflorida1291]

Whats great is unlike Top Gear, Jay Leno already has all the cars needed to make the show and they are his personal cars!

What a difference 6 years and a couple of tail fins makes. Unlike the 1956 Maserati A6G-2000 Allemano - a sad, hang-dog hashish of automotive design indeed, this GTi truly has the look. Especially appreciate Jay's appraisal of classic car values and look forward to his next, great Italian restoration.

[@TheFladaboscan]

When I was in college I bought a 63 3500gti that had been converted. It had a Corvette 350 LT1, which I believe Maserati put in later models. The chassis was heavy, the body was aluminum and the car was, as Leno says, tough to maneuver around town. But it floated at freeway speeds and when you hit 90 you could feel the ground effect. And it attracted a LOT of attention.

[@frasercook2827]

Hi Jay, I doubt you will see this, but I truly enjoy your show. Makes me feel so happy to know that there are great mechanics and craftsman still practicing their trade.I admire all your projects and love that you take into consideration every aspect of the car when restoring it. I have a restoration project of my own. It's a 1979 Ford F350. Not a special or desirable car, but sentimental to me, as it was my grandfathers. It's the oldest car I have, and it's even older than me. (As a side note, I now can agree with you that thinner steering wheels are way cooler) There is so much I want to do with the car, but I don't know where to start. I am pretty mechanically intuitive but am nervous to take anything apart for fear that I won't be able to put it back together, or worse afford to replace it. I want to learn how to do things like put in Vintage Air units and disc brake conversions etc. I'm in school to be a doctor, so I'm not about to go to school to become a mechanic, but how do you find an old wise craftsman to teach you these things?

[@ericcarr4419]

Fraser Cook Fraser Im not sure where you live, I live in small town nz so its probably a little different, But There are plenty of older craftsmen around willing to teach people there trade, ask around, join a car club or vintage car club you will meet heaps of people willing to help/teach, and before you know it youll find youre own specialty and be teaching others, good luck with the f350

[@kerrykrishna]

Producers keep asking for the stuff we like about these vids? I am constantly floored by Jay's encyclopedic memory of almost every single detail that he has learned about all his different cars. I wonder if he has notebooks on all of the cars that he goes through just before the vids are filmed? Not that it matters. I SO wanted to know what all the engine work for this car ended up costing too. I would not be surprised to hear 10 to 15 k for all of it.

[@caesarguzman5831]

kerry krishna please! That's peanuts! Try 50k to 80k

[@RobertPlattBell]

It reminds me of the old Aston-Martins. Any relationship in the body designers? 10:50 240 HP out of a six isn't bad. That's what I get from the M Roadster. 11:30 I had an old fiat that popped out of second - turns out the fluids had gelled in the tranny, making the first-second syncros stick. Changed the fluids and no mas "no dos".

[@mrbennetts]

Touring of Milan designed the body for the Maserati, also the Aston DB4 etc. The rear and side view of the Maserati is so similar to Aston’s Lagonda Rapide. I used to own one in the same colour. I think it was called Caribbean Pearl metallic.

Really enjoyed seeing this and seeing all those pieces in metal. As I remember the body and frame was quite complex. Really admired Italian design for that and to this day the 3500 GT is my favorite car of all time. I'm so glad to see that you had restored one and was able to see it in action today. Didn't fit in mine and it didn't go very fast. I admire you for restoring these cars and then go out and use them as they were built to be.

Lucas are English. I had a Triumph 2.5PI mid-70s which had a later version of the same unit. 2.5 litre straight 6. Lovely engine, but spoilt because they used cheaper injectors which were very unreliable. I love Maserati's, and would live to own one of these.

[@RB747domme]

Morgan Weverink there's nothing really wrong with Lucas fuel injection. Of all of the components that Lucas ever made in their lifetime, their fuel injection unit vintage era, was probably the most stable and worthy component that they ever made. If you look after it it's rock solid.

+Maurizio Pescatori you're right. Aston Martin definitely used some inspiration from this car as far as looks.

Same designer, I think?!

I owned a 3500 GT , the first one, who was equipped with carburators. Injection appeared in 1960, with a 5 speeds gearbox. For one reason, a piston came in too close encounter with a valve, with the result predictable. A friend, a italian jazz drummer, had a more recent 3500, destroyed in a accident. The engine was ok, and with two cars I made one. I have good memories with that car, and thanks to Jay Leno to make them alive, 50 years or so later.predictable

One of the car designs that started my love of cars along with the XK 120 .
