Jay teamed up with Chrysler CEO Tim Kuniskis to thank our wounded warriors - and one very lucky Corporal Ethan Laberge - for their heroic service.

If anyone has not seen Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee on Crackle, it's hilarious!

Watch the Jay Leno one with the 1947 hand-built 911. Jay and Seinfeld have known each other since the 70's and they seem to have a great friendship.

Jay thanks you for supporting the show with a special commemorative
burnout - and the promise of more great video to come!

Original and unrestored! Go for a ride in one of Jay's favorite fastbacks, complete with Select-O-Matic start, Ultramatic transmission and of course, Weather Eye.
Thumbs up.

Jay takes a spin in his 1952 MG TD Hot Rod with the car's former owner and the man who built it, David Stenmark.

Former Shelby collaborator BJ Henderson stops by with all sorts of scale reproduction memorabilia made by his company, Motorsports Icons.

Frank Profera transformed an unfortunate incident with his Lotus Elise into the 680hp, 1.8-liter-engined car of his dreams - with all kind of custom touches under the hood.
So ****ing bad-***.

You asked for it, you got it! Jay takes you on an extensive tour of the garage's many ongoing projects, including his beloved Espada, some elegant Panhards and an extremely rare all-original 1953 Cunningham.

Sixty-nine of these top-of-the-line custom beauties were produced in 1925, when they were advertised as the "Rolls Royce of Motorcycles," and became the favorite ride of the legendary T.E. Lawrence.

This car remains as innovative today as it was when it first hit the road in 1955. Jay changes its tire without a jack - and shares Citröen's truly weird advertisements.
