Jay Leno's Toys

Have you ever given Jay Leno's Garage site a look?

He has collected and restored several old cars and steam engines.
Several of them are documented in pictures and videos on the site.

Here is one of my favorite clips.

Rake60,

Have seen the video where he starts it up and then takes it for a spin. I believe he holds the record for getting a speeding ticket with. Supposedly was doing 100MPH on the freeway. Don't know how true that is.

The latest Popular Mechanics has an article on his turbine-powered car - fairly custom, and pretty darn cool ! Inhales gas though, not something you'd want to use everyday.

He's actually got 2 or 3 big airplane hangars worth of cars and full shop facilities. His turbine powered motorcycle looks scary as heck. It's got a helicopter turbine for power. Geez!
