I repaired the fuel pump head on this actual vehicle for john, propbably 5yrs ago . it was the leather "O" ring seal , so had to use a neoprene based o ring ! The shaft of pump would walk out fully deployed ,bleeding the pressure of fuel tank . The old girl cleaned up well , wondering if you re-wrapped exhaust down pipe or had replaced it ? Got to drive it ....2miles but john was with me and that was enough ,i was very happy !!

I will say that Jay Leno is probably one of the most knowledgeable men on the planet on various cars, mechanical knowledge of all the different early 1900's makes, models, differences, etc. He has an amazing memory and intensely studies various car makes in his spare time as a hobby. He is almost like a curator of a museum when it comes to cars, motorcycles, trucks, you name it. If it deals with precision machinery, Jay Leno has amazing knowledge of it. Pretty amazing stuff....

What a car! Yes, this is the car that really made Cadillac as a luxury, rather than upper medium priced, automobile. And I agree with that owner's manual - most problems on an American-made car really are the owner's fault. They refuse to change the oil and filter, they refuse to lube the chassis, they never check the oil in the differential and the manual transmission, they refuse to check the fluid in an automatic transmission, they refuse to tighten a loose fan belt, etc., then they blame the car when something finally fails.

And for those of us who turn our cars off at bank ATMs, the retracting seat makes it a logistical challenge to stop the car at the right spot in relation to the ATM buttons. My assumption is that this feature is meant to accommodate portly drivers.

Can't believe how quiet this one is. These very early cars are fascinating. They didn't have "standards" yet. One this car the window channels fols down. The lights have a mechanical dimmer. The engine temp guage is on the hood. All these quirky- to us- ways of doing things. It gave each car maker a distinct identity, not to be confused with another. There just were no hard and fast rules then.

I really like Jay Leno. Not because he's funny but because he is a car guy. You know people that have car collection's like Jays are cool, but Jay knows about every vehicle he owns and gets his hands dirty restoring the ones he restores. So that's what makes him different than other huge car collector's and he drives his car's too.

I have watched this presentation numerous times. I cannot get enough of this 1918 Cadillac. My favorite year is 1941, but I would never turn down that 1918. I am a great fan of Cadillac, unfortunately my wallet is not. But great show, I will watch it this episode over and over. Thanks again.

Great video. What a beautiful car. Just something about the proportions, its stance, it’s a complete classic. Quintessentially American, with all the style of the 1920s. Great engineering and build quality too. What a superb advocate Jay Leno is for it!

Talk about awesome. I'm amazed that this 1918 Cadillac was all original for the most part. It's great that the 2 previous owners took great care of it and had it stored properly

Ok, the coolest thing on the car, was those windows, the way they open up, I loved that. And the fact that the interior felt like you were inside someone's living room of the period, fun video and car.
