This Is What Hanging Out With Jay Leno For A Day Is Like: Driving Cool Stuff + Shop Tour + New Projects!

8 years ago I got the chance to come to Jay Leno’s and talk to his car care guys, get a truck washed and waxed, and check out the collection. We weren’t supposed to really talk to Jay because he was filming for his shows, but when we were done talking to his guys and started walking through the collection, Jay came over to say hi and ended up taking us on a tour much to the dismay of his film crew. A couple of hours later they wrangled him back so he could finish his work and we went home in a daze because it was so awesome. Recently my friends Jeff Lee and Matt Graves got the chance to take the same tour, and they finished it up with a drive in one of Jay’s steam powered cars. It was awesome.

For those that don’t get to go get a personal tour of the place, you’ll have to live through the lucky folks and one of those lucky folks is Larry Chen, who recently experienced a day with Jay and is sharing all the video with the rest of us. You are going to dig this. Check it out below.

Video Description:

Larry Chen has had the opportunity to spend a lot of time with Jay over the years—photographing his cars and appearing on Jay’s show. Now, the shoe is on the other foot. Larry spends the day with Jay Leno driving cars, discussing some of the most unique Japanese vehicles, taking a shop tour, and exploring why Jay never tried to merge his worlds of comedy and cars. This is an interview exclusive like we’ve never seen before.
