If Jay or his staff read this- please do a JLG on Jay's 56 Chev El Morocco. Also a full episode on the Y2K Jet bike, Blastolene tank roadster, LCC rocket, and/or the pre-WW2 LeMans cars would be awesome. Jay has so many incredible cars and bikes,but these in particular have little online info on them, and I think a lot of people, like myself, would love Mr Leno's unique insight on these cars. Thanks

Are they on youtube? I can't find anything from JLG on the tank roadster (although I've clips from other shows, like MyClassicCarTV, on it). And the 2 minute clip on the Y2Kbike is cool, but I'd love to see a full episode on such an unusual bike.

Rally cars are a natural for Porsche, after Porsche built a lot of the German military vehicles in the Second World War and Porsche doesn't waste their expertise. Nice build by Patrick Long and the money went to a great cause. Thank you Jay, Patrick and Eli for this great video. The way things are going in North America, with the lack of road maintenance, all cars will have to built like this.

ive raced in the desert most of my life( California, Mexico and Nevada). We used a Porsche engine and transmission in our off road car for years.. They are bullet proof!! We could achieve about 18 inches of travel out of a Porsche trans axle. now days its a bit more exotic but some people are still competitive with the Porsche set up MORE OFF ROAD PLEASE. I'll bet Mr Leno. could get the Terrible Herbst to show one of there cars

"It's just so easy. Just get a divorce. Keep the manual shift car." LOL! Exactly the right answer, Jay! Also, I had no idea Patrick Long had such an awesome, original idea for an air-cooled Porsche 911.

I'm gonna say something unpopular but true. Trailing arm Porsches do not make good rally cars. Trailing arms have absolutely terrible bump steer. And this is a very bad thing for a rear engine rear drive car trying to go over jumps. Change the rear suspension design and all is well tho.

Jay didn't post a video this Monday, so I decided to browse for an episode that I haven't watched. I noticed that the red line on the bottom on this video was only 1/5 across. Then I realized I tried to watch this three other times. I just can't get past Jay's two non-car-guy guests. The car is a bit ridiculous, but nothing compared to its "creator" and "owner" (who might be completely decent individuals). I tried to watch. Really I did. Ultimately I clicked near the end 19:17, to hear the Deusenberg horn so I could start my week.
