Jay Leno & Donald Osborne in Audrain Mansions & Motorcars: Season 4 Episode 4: Ochre Court

[@toirmetalshaping]

Hey. . . I was part of the RM fabrication team that did that Isotta originally back in 02. We showed it at Pebble in 03. I love that car. . . . I have been lucky enough to work on 3 of those Fleetwood "flying fender" vehicles which were, Isotta, K Mercedes, and the SS Mercedes. . . . 1929 was the last year for those coachbuilt beauties from the Fleetwood PA plant till they moved it to MI. . . . Glad to see Jay back. . . great episode!!!

[@AudrainMuseumNetwork]

Thank you for sharing!

[@6sillygtivr]

If you never been to Newport RI, it's breathtaking. The mansions are incredible and the whole town is like something from a movie. We toured The Breakers at Christmas and I couldn't wrap my head around the detail and scale of the place.

[@Johnnycdrums]

I climbed the ivy at Salve Regina. Oh, to be young again!

[@mooslionheart]

Instead of fighting with the wife over going to the opera or the car show on Friday night watch this! Fun for the whole family🦊

[@opera93]

Thanks. Interestingly, I am the CAR NUT “ And” the OPERA NUT( esp Mozart / BUFFA works)…….

1 in 1000 reasons to never marry. Did it once, never again. Drained my savings, my sanity, and my down time. Love having those back and do not miss her one bit. Girl friends only now,no live ins.

[@bryanhoward358]

Jay's the coolest famous person I can think of and SO knowledgeable about cars, not someone who is told what to say on script, thank u for the great entertainment guys!

[@AudrainMuseumNetwork]

Thank you for the support!

[@johnthorpe1349]

Jay Leno and Donald are the best when it comes to Cars 💯 The knowledge of the charts appreciate these new episodes so much actually look forward to them 🙏💯 Migwech from Toronto 🇨🇦🙂

[@petesmitt]

The famous Leno jaw masticating is a wondrous sight to behold..

[@warrenjones744]

I still think that is the best intro to any show ever. And you two together are even better. Thank you gentlemen

[@AudrainMuseumNetwork]

Thank you for watching!

[@donaldklapproth8091]

I and many others believe that Jay and Don are without doubt the mostwell informed car guys in our lives today . We cant thank you enough for bringing your knowledge and experiences about such wonderful yet mostly unattainable beauties to our attention! Please insure that your videos are kept in perpetually for those coming after uzso theycan sed history!

[@oktoday8323]

Another great educational video about a car I never heard of. I was a student in a master's program at Salve Regina University and saw the mansion featured many times. A side note, I met actress-singer Betty Hutton who thought a dance class at Salve. Jay, you telegrammed me on the video about the sporty 7-15 logo car about a week ago. I don't think my computer is compatible with getting back to you. Thank you very much for your efforts, as mine are lacking something. Newport is just beautiful, and with the beautiful automobiles and you two guys it doesn't get any better. Ruth Buzzi grew up in Westerly, R.I. and Katharine Hepburn lived about 15 to 20 miles away by herself in Conn. in a house by the ocean. There was a great video about Miss Hepburn and what she went through in the 1938 hurricane. It was on KZbin, and everyone should try and give it a watch. Sorry about my history lessons, but it is funny how your video brought it all together.

[@facelikedog]

Jay and Don are a class act with a touch of dirt under the fingernails.

[@marcoluoma3770]

Thanks for another great episode. It’s nice to see a Ferrari from when they were driven cars, not speculators'/collectors' sculptures.

[@melvinburwell8202]

Very nice once again. Automotive journalism at its finest. Mr. O and Mr. L. Two of the best. Spectacular mansion. Love the Ferrari. And the color. Never seen that color on a Ferrari. Keep it up gentlemen. ❤❤😎👍

[@barrykochverts4149]

I'm the same age as Jay, and grew up in the same area in the heyday of demo derbies. It was understood at the time that the main advantage Imperials had was in how far back the radiators were from the nose of the car. I owned a '63 Imperial about 10 years ago, and could have, literally, stood inside that space. Plus, the nose and fenders were factory-welded together and leaded like an old custom car, so there were no seams; it made the structure very resistant to crushing. Same in the rear.

[@bavariancarenthusiast2722]

The godfathers of cars in action - Thank you Jay and Donald! I fear that knowledge might all be lost. Please preserve as much as you can.

[@guytansbariva2295]

Jay said "How smoothly you pulled away without snatch"....sounds like every high school party I went to. 😣

[@willemdufoort1695]

these 2 men are special! I hope to visit the museum soon '

[@rivaest38]

Still catching up on this latest series, another wonderful episode! As I’ve said before I could watch and listen to you both all day, what a delight these programmes are. Also, envious of that scenery!

[@kentlarsen5834]

The photography of the cars and scenery are breathtaking. But also the photography of these 2 wonderful gentleman resonates in my mind. To know I'm with a class act that is so informative and also funny, love it.

[@joelpierce3940]

I love the History that you share, with us. I am glad these cars are saved.

[@barrywiseman7012]

This is a most enjoyable series with Jay & Don. Informative and entertaining. Wonderful cars, unbeatable landscape setting. A great way to start the day!!

[@albertseabra9226]

A great, intelligent vídeo. Another fabulous Car. Thank you Jay and Donald.

[@AudrainMuseumNetwork]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@denniswhite9721]

Another great video by Donald and his assistant. Thanks so much!

[@tedzehnder961]

Fun show Jay and Don. Contrasting opinions on one object of kinetic art. In Seinfeld where the two art buyers were looking at the portrait of "Kramer".

[@albertoascari9390]

I love this conversation

[@mwbpo1]

Loved this, thank you.

[@rm-dc6tx]

What would be a great show would be a tour and historic perspective of "Searsport"

[@AB-hx9hs]

I am glad to see that Jay at least put a Jacket on for this occasion, on top of his uniform (Blue Jeans). 🙂

[@chazdc154]

The consistent quality and entertainment value of these M&M productions is remarkable! Please keep ‘em coming! 😬 (And, yes, I am subscribed 😐)

[@claudiodiez55]

Donald your descriptions of a Car are Outstanding,

Long time subscriber here. I just love how beautifully this channel has evolved. Thanks for letting us come along for the ride.

[@AudrainMuseumNetwork]

Thanks so much!

[@claudiodiez55]

Love you guys.

[@sevenflashowls]

To the Audrain museum - would be awesome if you could create a app or just a map showing all the Mansions visited during this series and the cars associated with each.

[@tomboston9669]

Great idea ! And while we're at it, there should be a small description of all of the cars in print on every video.

[@larrysmith6797]

Jay and Donald holding up traffic again!

[@phillippugh2161]

Haha ikr

[@thereisnospoon52]

Congratulations Jay, your face looks regular not extra crispy! But seriously, so glad you're back and doing well.

[@Zark-Muckerberg]

I believe this was filmed last summer (way before Jay's accident).

[@thereisnospoon52]

@@Zark-Muckerberg Yes you are right. I have seen video of him recently and he looks good, it's hard to see any scarring.

[@jwonderfulsuccess]

Delightful 🙏

[@radioguy1620]

I think I'll save that music clip on my phone and play it whenever i survey my collection of 2 1998 Ford Escorts, just seems to add that special touch. Trouble is I drive almost that slow and people just dont like that anymore. Where they are going so fast I dunno.

[@radioguy1620]

The Audrain crew is after me to donate them

[@allareasindex7984]

Chauffeur is also the person who shoveled coal into the firebox of the steam locomotive. In America called “fireman”.

Boo Hoo, had to chuckle at the complaints of filling two gas tanks, we should all be so lucky.

I love a subtle, but beautiful Ferrari.

Let's go motoring 🤠👍

[@the_jarmel]

HAVE A BEAUTIFUL DAY EVERYONE ✌️

[@slackthompson6984]

are you named after the fabulous Jarmels?

[@superdougie10]

Jay's like "Stop off at the Breakers would ya? I gotta break wind" and the other dude is like "let me fix my silk tie".........lol

[@JamesAllmond]

sad part about the scrap drive Duesenberg ? For the most part, the scarp drives were pure propaganda... We had more than enough and scrap generally didn't generate good enough metal for the military's use...sad but true...

[@jean-jacqueskaselorganreco6879]

Wonderful episode,love the length and amount of very informative conversations you guys have with some Wagner opera teaching, italian pronounciation :-).But dear Jay, in sunday dressing with those shoes? Donald must get you to know the Moreschi shoes, for special occasions.Definitely the shows with you both in this size are the absolute perfect complement to "Jay Leno's garage".Thanks to present all this for us for free!The 365 , next to the 330 GTC and the 412 that i own is the pinnacle of what Ferrari once was.Fabulous in gold.The ignition or sparks here are not perfectly set up,at very low revs it works on less than 12 cyl. If once Audrain wants to sell it...contact me

[@user-gc1zn5mn4p]

Jay, I enjoyed this video yet concerning your comment that the automotive industry started in the early 1900s we have to give credit to Karl Benz, who invented the Karl Benz Patent Motorwagen in 1886 & thereby invented & started the automotive industry.

[@KyleEisenhart]

Such a great episode on such a great channel! Thank you so much!:)

[@AudrainMuseumNetwork]

Thanks for watching! If you haven't already, subscribe!

[@KyleEisenhart]

@@AudrainMuseumNetwork a pleasure and yes I am a subscriber and also liked the video! I think your channel is wonderful; greetings from Los Angeles and happy new year! I also really appreciate your Corvair stories, among others. We have a 1962 500 Coupe and it has been great! Some of the other cars we have that I enjoy seeing pertinent content on are the 1978 Triumph Spitfire, 2002 Porsche 996.2 911 Targa and the 1984 BMW e28 533i

[@bobpickett3030]

I drove those roads today.

[@matthewmatuszewski8286]

You can go back to ROAD AND TRACK issues of 1962 and find Bugattis listed with asking price of 2,500 3,000 dollars

[@storiesfromtheoldcowboy8876]

That was the price of a brand new nicely appointed American car.

[@Mike-rk8px]

In 1976 my father bought a 1972 Lamborghini Miura SV that had 6,000 miles on it and was in mint condition....for $10,000. The gas crisis at that time really drove down the value of cars that got lousy gas mileage. It was an absolutely incredible car, and it was kept garaged most of the year because we lived in Minnesota. I drove it countless times (which terrified my parents) and it was something I can’t forget, especially the sound of that V-12. My father sold it in 1989 for $95,000 so it ended up being a good investment. Now they’re worth millions. I wouldn’t want to own one now, it’s too valuable, parts are hard to find, and it’s just too old to drive it like it was made to be driven (very fast).

[@DeutschlandGuy]

07:27 Note the white thread sticking up from the right shoulder of Jay's jacket... not just here but also when he drove the Ferrari. By contrast, Donald's jacket doesn't have a thread out of place. 🤣😅😂

[@davide8641]

3:23 Mr. Osborne really breathing air overhere :D

[@Johnnycdrums]

The only thing Jay needs with that pizza is a Pabst Blue Ribbon.

[@thomashawkinshibbs3541]

I'm there❤

[@Nof60twindriver]

Love these vids but they need to work on the microphone placement. My old ears need it. Keep them coming!!

[@stevemyers2092]

One of the top shows you both have produced. Different editor? lol

[@gregwright392]

I'm always curious if the old cars would need to be double clutched when shifting.

[@BeingMe23]

I am sure

[@barrykochverts4149]

I have driven a few, and most need to be, particularly from first to second (unless you are Fangio). You can wait to match revs, but it's more trouble than it's wore for every day driving. Later in the century, there were still many cars that preferred double clutching into first at a stop sign, as their lowest gear wasn't synchronized.

[@rick7858]

The Tipo 8A engines were NOT overhead cam engines. Single camshaft in the bottom end, spinning in 10 bronze bearings, actuating 16 solid roller (!) lifters with incredibly long thick pushrods. I have rebuild 3 Tipo 8A engines, great smooth stump pulling engines

[@tedzehnder961]

I couldn`t ever see myself ever in that house, but the Ferrari ? Oh yeah.

[@artyfhartie2269]

Hi Jay, can you provide some details about the pizza you had. Like period of manufacture, name of company, type, ingredients, taste and price.

[@garycogswell5499]

Hello Donald and Jay, have you ever switched outfits, you know, for giggles and guffaws. Love the car history.

[@ozahmed4523]

Please, more shows on horse carriages before the the arrival of the motorcarriage (motocar). Especially in Paris in the 1800s. Anybody remember Cinderella and pumpkin carriages?

[@mikepelz7004]

I don't wanna wine but why can't people install headlights correctly, what is with the left high beam on the Imperial @30:09?🤔

[@garyrichards9539]

Ch is a K sound. 🔴🔴🔴 darn spellchecker

[@johngrose3111]

Interesting

[@stephenholland5930]

Another enjoyable episode, but please buy a new microphone for Donald.

[@donc-m4900]

For some reason, I want to eat pizza watching this.

[@LogicAndReason2025]

Just as there is not enough land space for graveyards for every person to be buried in the standard US style, there is not enough material and space to save every car ever made. Most cars we need to be satisfied with pictures.

[@garyrichards9539]

I am not certain if I heard correctly, but I think you pronounced the k sound for ch - chetta, or chini which is correct to sound the k. I would think you understand Italian, perhaps. ✔✔✔

[@sallyb3]

Was Jay riding the clutch???

[@Zark-Muckerberg]

Yeah, it looked like it (in the Isotta).

[@garyrichards9539]

🔴 in Italian, check is a k sound. 🔴

[@danam0228]

Sorry, but can the team work to improve the audio on videos like this. The volume drops and peaks require frequent turning up and down of the volume on listeners behalf. Also such things as echo in early part of this video was a bit bewildering given part of Donald's background

[@AudrainMuseumNetwork]

We’re sorry about that. This episode was, in fact, filmed a while back with lower quality equipment than we use now. That being said, we thought the episode was still worth sharing. You’ll notice a difference in an episode such as Ocean Lawn: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rKrKYpxoesl6itE

[@alferro3149]

Donald pronunciation of Isotta Fraschini is spot on. Jay, with is Italian heritage, normally butchers Italian names!😂

[@barrykochverts4149]

Jay's has always been a bit old-school American about foreign car names, as if he doesn't want to sound too uppity, and his denim uniform and work boots underscore that attitude. My favorite is Lenoism is "Laaanseeya", but that is also mispronounced frequently in England. There's one almost everybody gets wrong. Many years ago, when a student in Italy, I was corrected by a native friend who explained that the accented syllable in "Laverda" is the first one. "LAHverda".

[@garyrichards9539]

Also, the o followed by two consonants alike, changes the o sound to a sound as in the word rut, a shade. Not O. ✔✔✔

[@boydsdodge]

Love this episode, too bad about the mods done to the Imperial.

[@troynov1965]

13:34 LOL Kosher style Ham ! Thats funny !

[@IamJunius]

Nice double clutching Jay! Hardly a grind at all. Synchromesh??? HA, Is this car it is kind of like being partially pregnant.

[@richgallagher725]

The Imperial was a mere tangible proof of Chrysler desperately pursuing Ford & GM, and particularly Cadillac, but simply trying too hard, it was just over designed & engineered.

[@johndavey72]

Pay attention Leno !.......1947 (29.03 ) 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@F8Tributo]

I love this show! Sublime! Educational! Funny... Not fond of the bgm, horns aren't melodic or rhythmic, just loud and annoying. Rant over. Hey, you kids, get off my lawn!

[@d.kuczewski2824]

Great vid. Unfortunate about the audio issues. I can barely hear Donald. I crank up the volume. The the music comes in blaring.
