Builder Paul Taylor and designer John Keogh show Jay the unique carbon fiber racing bike - the only one with a monocoque chassis - they created for Mark Upham's revived marquee, using the latest in F1 technology.

From ****'d Off Pete's creator comes the deco-inspired Bi-Pod and Tri-Pod. With top speeds near 70 mph and matching helmets, it's as much fun as you can have fully clothed!

Jay's newly installed turntable offsets a tight driveway. Now Jay doesn't have to worry about damaging sensitive vintage steering systems anymore.

Jay said good-bye to his being long-standing Tonight Show host last night...but will, of course, remain a car enthusiast.

I was sorry to see him leave the Tonight Show, though. He was excellent competiton for David Letterman......who, IMO, borders on the moronic.

At one time, Jay was credited with having the world's second-largest privately-owned car collection (with the Sultan of Brunei on top)...but that may have recently changed.
