Am I the only one who was shocked to hear Jay "It's time to take it for a ride"? Geez I would have been a nervous wreck. Well a wreck with a smile.
Since he has a McLaren F1 worth maybe $15 million, he can cover it.
@@lisakaz35 Yes I agree. Certainly Jay would cover it but how do you cover a one of a kind car? That was what I was thinking about.
@@stevethomas760 I'm sure Jay's insurance is outrageous for what he has. I was surprised it looked like a regular afternoon. Like that should be a "drive Sunday at dawn" car. But you point out why Doug DeMuro didn't drive Jay's F1. Jay only has insurance for himself and Doug can insure him driving multi-million dollar cars but not as much value as an F1. I just guessed that the F1 and this antique Ferrari were kind similar in value.
It'd be an interesting topic, actually, but not one that gets discussed normally. I think DeMuro discussed it only because he typically insists on driving a car as a condition for reviewing it. He's driven valuable cars but the F1 was in a league of its own and, well, having Jay drive it in his video is more than a decent tradeoff given he gets a few minutes of video with Jay. When the car was one of David Lee's Ferraris, Doug drove it (I don't think David was in that video, though enough people know who David is, so Doug could have put him in if he was available; I mean, if I know who David Lee is, I bet most of the people watching one of Doug's pieces would as well).
FYI: I started watching a lot more car videos because I was developing a fictional character who was something of a gearhead. Not unlike Paul Newman or John Cena, I gave him a budding car collection including: F40, Carerra GT, Veyron, F1, Scagllietti, Huayra with daily cars including an Audi SUV and a Masserati. The story wasn't entirely about him but I made cars a major part of his character. Like Jay, he'd tinker with them himself sometimes.
Well the old Ferrari liked it to be woken up and do some driving
I like it how Jay drives priceless unique museum cars just like he would drive it everyday...
Well to be honest, he basically does hah
just me but that car is too valuable to risk o0n the open road!
Cars are built to be driven. If you don't drive them they slowly degrade. If they sit too long you either have to rebuild them, or just use them as art
I'm sure that's part of his motivation for the show
That's whyJay is always driving with a big smile !
Leslie (the museum guy) is sitting there thinking, “Jay, these are 60 year old tires, can we get back now?”
The 70's rock band "RUSH" made a song about a Red Barchetta , I love that song.
2stroketurbo Inspired by a Ferrari, a 166 Mille Milia, 1948 I think.
My first thought was The Rush song as well
That was from '81 I think. Good album.
You do realize that these cars were around for twenty years before rush wrote the song.they were already famous.
Brilliant red barchetta from a better, vanished time ;)
Wow! What a rare and exquisite car! I'll have to get myself to the Petersen Museum. You and Curator, Mr. Kendall, did such an excellent job featuring it! Great episode! Thanks so much!
I remember seeing this very car in a magazine when I was in my 20's and owned a TR6. I thought it was beautiful and wondered if there ever was a "kit car" model you could build. After watching this, there is really nothing out there that could do this car justice, drivetrain wise..Thanks Jay.
Jay kept saying, "Listen to that sound." I did. Oh man.
I don't get people who buy antique sports cars and the first thing they do is stick a stereo unit in them. You can listen to that in the house... the sound of the exhaust note is the only music I want to hear on the road. Must be from watching so much Speed Racer as a kid, but that sound has always deeply effected me. I own an Austin Healey Sprite with a Maniflow UK racing exhaust and long throw header unit, and God what a sound it makes. It growls and burbles like an angry kitty.
Thank U Jay. I miss you at night. It's just not the same without you. But I am glad you're doing this show. It makes me happy too see you doing what you love most. Second to my Dad who died when I was 12. U are one of the people I respect most!!!
👍🏽
Sometimes that "beep beep" at the end of the show startles me. I am fragile.
It makes me laugh every time!!!!
It's RoadRunner horn! Meep Meep!
You know, you don't have to watch the video to the very last second...
Are you still buying acme products??
It just woke up my bird and I was wearing earbuds!
"Suddenly ahead of me
Across the mountainside
A gleaming alloy air car
Shoots towards me, two lanes wide
I spin around with shrieking tires
To run the deadly race
Go screaming through the valley
As another joins the chase"
Always wondered why the aircars were stranded at the riverside.
Allan Brogdon “ two lanes WIDE “ ( one lane bridge )
Fabby song by Rush - well said
My first thought when I came across this video.
To those that are burbling about the exhaust smoke, remember racing engines of the day were designed to consume oil. There's nothing wrong with it.
Yep, we used to build 'em loose as a goose to keep the friction down and to keep 'em from seizing up when we'd run 'em hard and hot.
Was under decompression. I'd bet the intake guides are loose. New guides set at 0.0003" - 0.0005" clearance and the smoke will go away.
It wouldn't be surprising to hear that the Petersen's staff mixed some 2-stroke oil with the fuel to lubricate the top cylinder area
A work of art with v12 music to the ears. With a link to Henry Ford to boot! Thank you Jay Leno & the good people at the Petersen museum.
What beautiful and elegant lines on this piece of automotive art!
Interestingly the design for the AC Ace on which Carroll Shelby based the AC Cobra was inspired by this Ferrari after the designer John Tojeiro had seen the Barchetta on the race track.
Yep. Used to own an AC Ace (not an Ace-Bristol). Too bad AC left out the 12-cylinder engine in favor of what amounted to a 6 cylinder long bore tractor engine that ran out of breath at about 3000 rpm. Of course, the Bristol engined version must have been a bit better.
The AC Ace was beautiful car. As soon as I saw this Ferrari Barchetta I thought AC Ace.
This Ferrari is engineering at it's finest and it would have to be my favorite Ferrari hands down. I appreciate that it is driven and not a carpet queen. Thanks jay
Such a beautiful car! An admiring piece of machinery! You did it again Jay! This thing took my breath away!
The car is absolutely stunning! Great sculptured sweeping lines. Just a work of art
Driving THE car of the automotive giants . . . I'm as deeply green with envy as the color of the car, but at the same time happy that you have the grace, ability and intelligence to share the ride. Because it's a museum piece, invaluable, and irreplaceable, part of me cringes when you lean on the old girl. But Ferrari engines are high performance, therefore, they demand to be driven hard. So, what you were doing not only gave all of us a treat but was actually good for the life of engine. Thanks again for driving it correctly, spreading the wealth and helping to preserve the best of automotive history.
Ferrari should remake this amazing roadster. I cant believe how small the v12 is and how simply nice it looks.
With all the regulations and emissions requirements it would come out sounding like a Volkswagen Beetle
I really love watching jay Leno drive a old car like this one. The level of appreciation he has really runs off. Clearly he is very passionate about it
1. My jaw dropped when you said "..time to go for a ride."
2. That car sounds amazing.
3. You're a very lucky and brave man to drive that car on CA public roads.
Always makes me a bit nervous when he drives the city roads.
All it takes is one distracted driver pulling out of a parking lot.
I would be shitting bricks driving that car on the public roads with all those mouth breathers updating their facebook profiles while "driving".
you can tell how nervous the curator is every time someone passes.
The Petersen, and Jay Leno's garage have been on my bucket list forever!
Jay,
I just want to thank you for sharing these glimpses of car guy heaven. I grew up in So Cal and witnessed the birth of the 60s car culture. When you share your experiences with these vehicles, it is to me the most generous act imaginable. Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you! I can't say it enough.
That thing is beautiful.... =O Those lines.... oh my.. that engine note... and on top of all that, built to the best of the ability, not to a price.
What a fantastic vehicle to showcase, thank you very much.
That car is a real gem. good show Jay
So pleasant to feel the wind in one’s hair.
Said it many times about the cars on your site Jay, but it bears repeating....this is an amazing car, and I am sooooo envious of how you get to drive such incredible stuff.
That is ACHINGLY pretty!
Do I have to be the one to say it? Where's the burnout, Jay?!?
Seriously, thank you Mr. Leno and the Peterson for sharing this with us. Some of us are lucky enough to be around some of these cars regularly enough that you can get a little jaded. When I see this or Steve McQueen's XKSS being driven here, I'm just speechless. Thanks...
Yet another beautiful work of art. Thanks for sharing Jay.
Beautiful and super rare! Thanks for sharing, Jay!
my favorite car of all time. back when driving was the event. the motor was your radio. no cup holders because your hands should be taken up by the stick and the steering wheel. I've been to the Peterson museum a bunch of times and have never had the chance to see this in real life but I keep my fingers crossed every time I go.
I strip away the old debris
That hides a shining car
A brilliant red Barchetta
From a better vanished time
I fire up the willing engine
Responding with a roar
Tires spitting gravel
I commit my weekly crime.
Love this car.
Poetry in motion
You must be a Rush fan! 🎉
That engine sound is just... WOW!!! Need a 10 hour loop of that.
It sounded to me at several points like a Miura or a Countach, but perhaps more refined, not so in-your-face; maybe even a hint of E-Type in there as well. I actually prefer the noise of the Lambo V12s over the Ferrari V12s.
that is absolutely stunning...what a pure work of art..,lovely Ferrari
1952 paint?? That paint is stunning! a mile deep, literally!
should have gone to Specsavers,or bought a bigger TV maybe...
Fatso Currywurst
Why?? It looks great on my laptop screen.
The paint is leaded, just like the gas was.
Jay, you need to read up on cowboy style origins! Much of it came from Italians. You made the right connection, just in the wrong direction!
What I love about Mr Leno’s garage is that, you always learn something, it’s not like others that do burn outs etc. Not that theirs anything wrong with burn outs etc.
Never saw a barchetta before. What a beauty now I am in love. Thats a real car no doors to mess with, top who cares about a top. Classy whitewalls and 12 cylinders with no waiting. thanks for sharing Jay.
I was expecting to have Rush's "Red Barchetta" in the soundtrack....... damnit
this show needs to be on tv
No....I hate commercials.
To Hell with T.V.!!
why not? the guy loves being on camera. he dosnt have the late show gig anymore so why not? I just think itd be neat to see a show go from youtube to the big screen just my 2 cents an it looks like its going to be
TV would ruin it. There's commercials and scripts and producers. Jay has complete control. No executives that are telling Jay what will get ratings when they couldn't change a tire. TV SUCKS!!
I LOVE THIS SHOW !!!!!.........Thanks JAY!!!!!
Thank you for sharing these wonderful cars Jay Leno! We all get to experience some of the joy along with you!
Gawd Jay leaning on the car looking into the engine bay........
Now I know why Geddy Lee was singing about!
Yep! As soon as I started the video, Red Barchetta was playing in my head!
I was think the same exact thing. Rush is awesome!
and the "white-haired uncle" that took care of the Barchetta... almost seems prophetic doesn't it!
dod lot Rush is Ledgendary
pndragon1 Race back to the farm!!
Beautiful piece of automotive history! Priceless.
I love this channel! I wish I had the opportunity to drive as many great cars as Jay Leno! Thanks for sharing!
"My uncle has a country place that no one knows about.
He says it used to be a farm before the motor law"
I'm sorry the opportunity presented itself and I HAD to reference that song.
That would be good if it were red!
Hell yeah! Man if only it were.
Nice to have some Rush fans here :-)
@@MrNickelbrille we are everywhere man 🥁🎼🎸🎹😎🎤
Hard to beat a classic Ferrari V12 engine note.
I had the chance to see this car up close while on the Petersen "Vault Tour". Leslie was our incredibly knowledgeable guide. The car is an awesome piece of history. Thank you Jay for the opportunity to see and hear it drive.
Beautiful. Absolutely stunning.
In Italy they have left hand steering.
Now they do
Kim Jong Un
Always been left hand steering....
didn't get the "first Ferrari with left hand drive" either...
easy, find me a picture of a Ferrari, made before 1951, that has Left Hand Drive, and post the link here.
Speedbird996
You are getting mix st up with left hand drive and left hand steering.
Taking a big risk driving on tyres that old just to say it's 'all original' - what if one breaks up suddenly and destroys the 'all original' rim leading to scrapes all over the 'all original' body?!
Here in Germany you are simply not allowed to drive with tyres that are older than seven years... And I find that good! Safety is important.
They should take off the original tires when they go drive around, and keep the originals for show
Some companies reproduce whitewalls for classic cars
Coker Tire is one of the companies that has the original tire molds and makes reproduction tires from the original materials and rubber blending recipes. You want Cotton or Nylon bias-belted tires, they make them new. Not cheap, but neither is the car.
And for a project like this, the Museum would box up and send them an original tire and Coker would make a new mold to match it exactly. Only the DOT registration number and date code would change.
They have life-time guarantee. I have a set from 1984 and they look great today no cracks and I live in Nevada. They are not tubeless.
Really interesting as always I love the way Jay gets into the history of every car..
I'm a huge fan..
All the way from Malta EU.
Keep it up Mr Leno you're one of my heros 🙂
Saw that car in the Petersen vault last year. Great to see it out and about! Thanks Jay!
Neil Peart would say this car must be red
lol!! right. Awesome song
MaxTheKanuck Neil as always wrote the lyrics based off a short story he read.Though he had to change the car.In that story it was a MGB but Neil changed this simply because it's easier to rime things with barchetta than MGB.There is many long articles detailing the inception of that song.oppositelock.kinja.com/the-story-behind-rushs-red-barchetta-1446791872
Just what I was thinking! Is this (if it were red) the inspiration?? "Tyres spitting gravel, hot metal and oil, the scented country air, sunlight on chrome, the blur of the landscape, every nerve aware".
Writer Neil Peart, Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson They all contributed.
MaxTheKanuck You smokin rocks ?
Beautiful colour. Much better than tedious Ferrari red.
disgraceland uk Yeah, but then we’d have a Red Barchetta and all the RUSH fans would have a PARTY in the comments.
Anybody know what Verde that is?
I love the Ferrari red, but it's nice seeing other colors especially on a classic one such as this. Same with the Admirals Mondial, that blue is gorgeous.
@@oghond They already are
Thank you Jay for bringing the beauty and art and sounds .to us. Hat off and thank you to the Peterson. Happy to have seen their Ferrari anniversary exhibition.
Best looking car I've ever seen. Stunning!
My white haired uncle has one like that in his barn, except it's red.
Used to be a farm, before the motor law... :p
Did he fire up the willing engine, responding with a roar?
@@JrGoonior motor lodge*
@@truckerenoch8824 its from a story , the motor law outlawed combustion engines see...
@@andrewdillon7837 ah, I see and stand corrected. I've been hearing that wrong for decades. Lol

That incredible Ferrari Exhaust Noté !
Thank you for posting !
Wow what a beauty........ Here in Detroit when I was growing up, we used to see the Fords drive their fancy cars down Lake Shore Drive all the time. It was a treat. I don't remember this one. Thanks for sharing.
So if these tires are from 1954 does that make them a "Bias Ply" or what did they have available? For sure they aren't radials
For sale: used 1952 Ferrari. Green, original bias-ply tires, 12k original miles. Serious offers only.
Only $30,000,000.
2 ply with 4 ply rated ....
ooglefluffg857 And it burns oil and smokes
ozzstar Yep. Seemed to get a little worse as they went. Valve seals and valve guides, most likely. Good luck finding them at the local parts store.
The toughest part of watching this video is not being distracted by the Bugatti's in the background. I want to break in with a lawn chair and just stare at them until the police come and beat me senseless.
Thanks from Tokyo. I don't drive much in Japan, but I drove every day when I was in California, so it's quite a nostalgia trip for me to watch these videos from the old country!
What a beautiful old Ferrari.
Thanks for the video Jay.
Why does Jay always drift out of his lane onto the paint?
Tacomadome24 to avoid parked cars
+Tacomadome24 Possibly to avoid the camera and whatever's carrying it. In a lot of shows you'll see the guys pulling into the other lane just before they get level with the camera.
Because he's Jay bloody Leno
Because Asians can't drive!
Because he can..he is Jay Leno...
I've always said that claiming to be a car lover and locking them away only to be looked at is like loving a play and imprisoning the entire cast and crew. If you are not going to drive it let it go to someone that will.
That's like saying you can have an art Gallery but we are going to give all the paintings away because all the people do is look at them ; )
Paintings are made to hang on the wall, cars like this are made to be driven. Would an artist like Enzo have put that amount of work into this car if he had known it would spend the next 50 years in storage?
***** I don't know, only he knows that, but yes I guess so, they should be used but not abused.
I'm guessing it's good to keep a few originals in museum condition so that accurate replicas can be built from them
An accurate replica hasn't got a history.
Simply beautiful.....
This channel lets me live vicariously through you. :) thank you for that.
Neil Peart sent me.
Why not having two sets of wheels, one authentic for display + one with modern tires for safe DRIVING???
That car is only driven once every few years, if at all.
So it wouldn't make much sense to have an extra set of driving tires.
Awesome Jay the history the car and u noing of the car for years that's probably another one checked off your bucket list great show thanks again
Priceless
She's a little bit smokey for the mileage, but, wow, nice car. Probably been standing too long.
Nathan R
I think that's probably it. The rubber seals go hard over time and don't work properly. Most noticable on OHC motors. Rob
No cats on the exhaust. Plus older cars didn't have emission standards.
WAY smokey, I would guess the rings are not in the right position.
Racing engines had and still have clearances looser than normal to account for the expansion rate of forged aluminium positions. Even roadgoing Jaguar's were clearanced compared to most other normal engines. A bit less friction and an extra few thousands to account for expansion.
Capital B and capital S, not piston-cylinder clearances.
@@gregorytimmons4777
@ 2:15 he says "maybe the first ferrari with left-hand drive". Someone correct me if i´m wrong here but Italy has had that since the late 20´s, i think it was Mussolini who made that happened in italy
+Charles Darwin For whatever reason, RHD remained common in Italy long after driving on the right was standardized. Alfa and Lancia didn't build their first LHD cars until the early '50s!
Pietro Pozzoli The very first Ferraris ever built were RHD cars, as were most 166s and 195s. Italy did not have a national standard for left or right side traffic until the 1920s and as a result some parts of the country drove on the left, some drove on the right.
Instead of arguing about this, why don't you just go Google it and realize that I'm right?
Pietro Pozzoli EVERY regular series production Alfa Romeo prior to 1950 was RHD, EVERY regular series production Lancia prior to 1953 was RHD. Milan, which is of course the home of Alfa Romeo, was the last Italian city to officially switch from left to right side traffic, in 1926... but Alfa kept building cars the way they always had until long after WWII. This is truly ridiculous to argue about when it's so well documented on the internet. There is *no such thing* as a LHD Lancia Lambda or LHD Alfa Romeo 6C 2300 except for the rare 'fuoriserie' one-off or later conversions.
+Pietro Pozzoli So.... I guess you're going to get the job as head of the Peterson museum when they figure out that you know more than this guy, right?
Unless of course, your parole officer won't let you move to L.A.
I I made some research and you are right right hand traffic was officialized by mussolini int the twenties! Although coach builders in the late 1800's started building their coaches with the coachman on the right it never was an official standard. It has to be said that before the first world war there were almost no cars in italy. You mentioned Alfa Romeo, well before Nicola Romeo acquisition Alfa basically built french patented Darracqs. Then the war came and the factory was converted into fabricating war merchandise. The "regio decreto" is from 23, the war ended in 18 so those five years of freedom, back when italy was in ashes an converting back industries to producing civilian merchandise, affluent gentlemen as Enzo Ferrari, Vicenzo Lancia or Nicola Romeo were respectively enjoying their time as gentleman drivers and making successful investments building trains. Shortly after that experimentation began, a few basic running chassis were built. Ferrari didn't exist...
Been waiting for this all night
oh my god, given the fact that it is indeed 100% original, with that incredibly brilliant bullion of a V12 engine, and blessed by Enzo Ferrari himself as an earnest gift for Henry Ford II, this has GOT to be the most valuable/expensive Ferrari in history (hypothetically, if it was auctioned). Unbelievable.
Amazing but I thought tires from 1952 would have dry rotted many years ago
they most likely are. i wonder if those are the originals. im willing to bet they arent and the actual 1952 tires are set aside to avoid using them up and all
Yeah i would like a close look at them. The likelihood of the rubber losing it's plasticity and also corrosion of any steel components makes me nervous. (presumably the bead is steel) They are also highly likely to be out of round or D shaped by now as well.
The problem is; when and if they do choose to fail sometimes the first thing you know about it is when you end up in a ditch!
The Philpott with cars like this you maintain them, there could be spots of rust on the originals but the way they would store them is by not putting any pressure on the tire itself. It would be foolish to drive the car on the original tires especially when you consider the value they could add to the car
I wouldn't fuckn drive on them. Just from age alone that's dangerous even if they were garage kept and maintained. I'm thinking maybe they change the tires out when they went and drove it on camera... not sure but it's possible.
jim dandy they are but it was stored inside so the sun hasn't damage them and being bias ply the is no internal steel belts to rust. So ask you have to do is rub some rubber softener n keep it under 30. My guess it probably full of fixaflat n nitrogen as well. I'm more worried of the tire exploding n ruining the paint though!
Driving on tires from 1954 D:
Total crazy!
They are biased-ply tires. They have intertubes inside which can't be as old. Not that big of a deal really.
Rubber ages and hardens with exposure to air - they can't be that good and they certainly were not comparable to anything modern, even when new. They have to be worse than when they were new now.
***** Nylon has been used in tires since the 1940s, but I don't know if early '50s Europe was using it - they were still using mechanical brakes in many vehicles too. The War killed a lot of their tech applications, especially in the Axis, that they were just getting back to using.
The Tires up to 1950 are Canvas,pure ( galvanised Rubber ) would only work ( maybe) in a full Rubber ( airless ) " Pneu" or not to pneu,whatever...
Great video! They really get into the story of the car - and it's great to see it driven with elan!
What a treasure. Thanks for posting.-Richard in Texas
I'm just here looking for the Rush comments.
Tell me about it.
This is propably the best looking car ever ?
Great stuff Jay and staff. Love the channel!
What an incredible sound!
They could not even be bothered to clean the windshield before shooting?

Wow!! Indeed a treat,
What a trip, I never wanted a new set of rubber, as bad as I do now!! 😉 Iam happy just too see her walk down the road 👍Can you imagine 😊
Thank you Jay. I say this before even watching as pre 60s Ferrari's are too beautiful for words although I love them right up to say 1974.
Can't be tires from 1952
Is that car worth like $5,000,000?
probably worth well over 5 million really. it's a special car.
I'd say well into double digit millions... Over 20 I would think. Very rare, very original, Henry Ford... I would think $25 million
Matt Close i would say so aswell, hell at auction with ultimate Ferrari collectors (like those with a 250GTO) im sure it could hit the 40 to 50 mark but i doupt this will ever go on sale. Its too special to risk it to some collector which will eventually pass away and the car may become neglected over the generations
Agreed. Really these types of cars are priceless and deserve to be in a museum and out of the market. Its great they are still getting it out and driving though. Cars worst enemy is idleness.
Matt Close oh man tell me about it. And this is probably why both Jay and the Peterson Museum reside in California. The conditions are ideal for cars and you can drive it every once in a while. The Peterson hold some of the best cars out there no doupt. And as you said they know how to take care of the cars.
A beautiful piece of artwork! There are beautiful cars made today but they're nothing like the cars of old.
Only Mr. Leno gets to drive the rarest, most historical vehicles ever! Great Video!
Italian cars are left hand drive.
Modern Italian cars are left hand drive, pre-/post-WWII cars were right hand drive.
Thanks. Learned something
Robert Elliott what about French and German cars?
Steven Maurice They were also right hand drive through the late 40s/early 50s. Once things got going again after reconstruction, the European continent started to emulate our left hand drive, I think Sweden was the last to convert in Europe.
Robert Elliott cool! Thanks again.
Too bad its not a Red Barchetta ;) aha aha
Wow, just wow.
wonderful thank you for sharing history
