Jay needs to start a second channel showing all these craftsmen as they work. They wouldn't have to talk, even a time lapse camera set up would be amazing.
That would definitely deserve a whole channel dedicated to it ! Nice suggestion : )
jay west would sub and would most definitely watch that! Great idea.
live stream
Nobody likes a person looking over their back
jay west : )
Old World Craftsmanship in the New World. It warms my heart to know these old treasures are being preserved. Jay Leno is The Man---with a small army of dedicated Car Guys. Keep up the good work, Jay & Company. Stay safe, everybody.
You could make these restoration updates an hour long and they'd still be just as interesting. Cover EVERYTHING.
linglingjr I'd watch it
I don't tend to watch that long of videos on youtube. But I'd watch it.
It's a museum with artist. I seriously can't comprehend what goes on over there. Simply amazing.
"hands haven't changed, so they can make it again" That's so awesome.
(Hand presses button on 3-D printer.)
As an avid car enthusiast, and a Dentist, I love the scanning technology! I use a scanner for all the crown and bridge that we do. As a car guy, having restored, or built a number of cars, it would be a great tool to have! Love the site, and watch all videos!
Thanks for this - one helluva way to take a break from work, enjoy some lunch, and see what's up in Jay's garage. Please - keep 'em coming!
WOW FARO TECHNOLOGIES!!!! YOUR 3D SCANNING ARM IS AWESOME AND THAT WILL REDUCE THE EXTREMELY RARE PARTS NEEDED TO RESTORE OLD CARS AND MAKE CLASSIC CARS LAST FOREVER!!!!
Jay has got to be the biggest car enthusiast in the world! He not only collects cars, he knows them, knows how they work, and works on them himself. On top of that, he DRIVES his cars! He doesn't pay stupid money for a already finished car at auction, then makes it a trailer queen, he buys worn cars and make them new! Kudos to him!
Wow Jay...this may be the best episode of JLG ever. And it wasn't (directly) about cars. I am inspired. Thank you sir.
That would be amazing to have that scanner, cant even tell you how many times I've bought new parts and have had to shave, bend and even break for them to fit in my car. Maybe someday we will have a shop that you can bring a part to and have it scanned and built in less than an hour, this technology truly is the future.
Some great work from your skilled craftsmen Mr Leno.
I love your restoration blogs - my favourite videos from your channel
Jay, for what it is worth, I would like to see more restoration updates including discussions with your team on techniques and problem solving. I'm an engineer and amateur restorer (currently working on a '53 Chevy 3100 Derelict (newer 4x4 chassis and V8 power going under it)). Fun times watching your videos. Cheers.
Thanks Jay for sharing backend of 3D Printing. Future of Manufacturing Restoration begins with CAD files: Achieved in a dudes Garage
okay this is a ln amazing episode.. technology really is amazing, car enthusiast can get parts so easy now
THE VITAL TOOL FOR THE WORKSHOP MARVELOUS!!!!
Finally Jay, but too short and the details... we crave more details! Thanks for another restoration blog.
That is really cool... Recreation of any old part... Awesome.!
Awesome!
the future is here!
WE can make anything
Nice in house work Jay love your channel thanks for sharing with us great cars ,every episode is a history lesson
Looks like they have a lot to look forward to there!
Turn the threshold up on that poor mans mic he sounds like he's dying
JinzoDefiler while I respectfully agree with you statement. As someone who works as a soundman I don't agree with your analysis
Compression wouldn't make a difference. I would use noise reduction. Select his breathing and adjust what the mic picks up until you can't hear the majority of the breaths. I don't want to be negative I enjoyed the show and his work is amazing.
Totally agree. Lots of my contemporaries in the motor trade have died through lung cancer etc. All that brake and clutch dust and solvents, as you've said.
moyadapne don't forget leading to add to that list.
Heidi and Franny's Garage We had lead in gas for the longest time. I think panel beaters got the effects of lead application on car bodies more than say mechanics. Ta.
Thankyou. Greatly enjoy these, always interesting and well done.
Love these restoration blogs. Jay, you da man for sharing all of this with us.
jimmy sounds like he has sleep apnea while he is awake
roywhiteo5 this is the comment I was looking for
I would have liked to seen a close up shot of the Frazer-Nash radiator cap. That is amazing workmanship.
Same here...near the end of the clip I thought they were going to zoom in, but no such luck.
I like this the best-seeing the guys and what they work on. Great vid.-thanks Jay!
Its something to see that fire engine from Wayne N.J. I was raised in Mt.Veiw and rely enjoy seeing it.
Impressive scanner with a very nicely designed arm
Pretty sure Jay meant the ISS, not the space shuttle.
And so is my telescope?
My first thought was "Space Shuttle?... Forget it hes rolling!"
implicitly the 3D printer would get to the ISS via space shuttle.
Maybe, if the Space Shuttle program was still in operation...
Implicitly, the 3D printer was launched on 21 September, 2014 aboard a SpaceX Dragon capsule.

Great plug for Faro... Good account manager!
Jimmy is going to retire working on those cylinders
Always love to see the amazing projects. THanks for the update
I like Jays new look .
black T-shirt, denim untucked.
Quinton McHale yeah he's got very advanced he's like in 1989 by now
Hello Jay! hope to see you soon in Calgary Alberta Canada. love the updates on all the projects. when you are here I'd love to ask a question about an old project that you are probably finished! You will remember it but I've seen no updates! But it would be great to shake your hand and ask you about it! either way it's a pleasure listening to all of your gear head escapades! I'd wouldn't be fun if there wasn't New stories to tell! Thanks for sharing.
WOW, really amazing garage !!!
jimmy needed sound checking, his levels are too high, you can hear him thinking
Danny The_GFP Thank you for that. For some reason, I cracked up reading that.
Have to admit, technology like thar, especially for car people, is pretty cool. Just awesome like that!
love these the most
Hey it's Jimmy Hudson, I remember this guy from American hot rod and Biker build off.
Thank you for taking on these important, historical projects. These vehicles will live forever, now that you have brought them back to life. History is more than 'who did what', it's also the things that people used.
thanks so much for sharing this stuff Jay, its just great.
So by using the FARO you could make a matching number engine block? If yes I cannot imagine the added value of the completed car - amazing!!
You've got unbelievable guys working there Jay. You don't find people like this in the workforce. It's hard to find even competent people let alone this kind of talent.
It's a good thing Jimmy's so good at fixing things,
cuz Jay's clearly been breaking his balls for years.
Nicely done, Mr. McQueen.
fidorover I could be wrong but I am reasonably certain that Jimmy used to work for Boyd coddington, so he is probably used to working in those conditions..
You're correct he did. Although, he didn't fit in too well over there, the fat kid (bluebear) used to wind him up constantly and he always bit.
just as everyone else that had any respect for themselves he left or was fired he is pretty damn talented
That's true, he did quit, but I think it was mostly because he was slower than cold molasses and none of Boyd's crew, including Boyd himself, could tolerate it.
has the old volvo out back been worked on? have you gotten a volvo v8 at least.
I've been looking forward to that Volvo wagon, . (I drive a middling-more-recent Brick myself, ) but I think they ought to use an engine more proportionate in weight, especially since it's supposed to be a tip of the hat to Northstar in a resto-mod. :)
Jay is the most outstanding honest car guy. I love how he specifically states that he's not giving Maderaconcepts a plug but rather that he paid for their service on his Mercedes and just was so impressed with their work that he wanted to share his experience. The fact that he's not all about money making and loves his collection to be on par with the best is so appreciated! Nobody in the automotive world is like him. That's why i watch all his videos even when he does cars that are no particular my favorite. He educates and had taught me to see the gem in all cars. Thank you Jay
Jay PLEASE hurry up and do the Volvo Pole Star. That car will be amazing.
Yeah Volvo probably have a few of those now obsolete V8 Supercar engines. Flat plane crank and probably 4000-7500 power band
Imagine the old motorcycles that can be ressurected.
Or even replicated!
Andrey Studentsov I was thinking the same thing! Vintage motorcycles built entirely by 3D. Go back 15 years, and the average person would say you're nuts. Today? The average person would say it's possible.
Jay West, great suggestion
if anyone is wondering the Mesabi radiator for the fire-engine is made by L&M Radiator out of Hibbing, MN
FaroArm. I can't believe they are still using them. We were using them back in '99 in Automotive crash testing. Even the storage case is the same. I used to pack ours up and send it out for calibration every 6 months. Not exactly new technology.
The faro arm isn't new technology. Its the tech they mounted on the end of it. Also, Now you dont need a CRAY computer to make something useful out of the point cloud. I know a guy in Reading, PA that has one and he said it pretty much prints money for him. ssmdworks.com/
My favorite series of videos on this channel, I can't wait to hear the sound of the firefighter waggon. What happened to the '66 Volvo Estate, are you working on it or was the project abandoned? I haven't heard about it since August 2015. Did you actually decide to turn it into a Polestar?
There's a place in St Paul Mn. called Ford Obsolete, You can get parts for any year, or model they ever made..
I absolutely love these update blogs! It shows how unrealistic some of the reality car building shows are and actually takes months, if not years of work to restore a car.
Well that's just it Sean, I completely agree. Further I'd also say that those who are like ourselves in this respect, understand that the 40-odd minute restoration programmes (be they cars, buildings, artworks or whatever) only show but a fraction of what went on, and usually only what can be daisy-chained in the editing suite to form a sort-of narrative.
I remember a recent episode of Wheeler Dealers where the seats of that episode's car were being fully refurbished, right down to the cleaning of the foam. Now for the two minutes or so we see of this in the episode, more than likely was a day's work of both doing the example for us viewers and also due to the stop-start nature of filming (in order to have all the right shots and extra material for the final broadcast edit) and, speaking of that final edit, maybe a few hours deciding if that part of the restoration story is kept and - if so - what shots and if any voice over is required which then means one of the presenters (Brewer in this instance) is brought in at at later date into a recording booth at some nameless-to-us studio. Eep.
So to bring myself back to your point Sean, I'd say to anyone who may want a proper glimpse (rather than just read our comments here) into the world of restoring or building something and maybe also filming it: setup a camera (mobile phone, action cam, proper DLSR camcorder, webcam...doesn't matter) and start work, making allowances for close-ups (a second, if not also a third, camera is strongly advised, along with separate microphones) and explaining along the way. Then, in the edit, condense it down to perhaps 15-30 minutes with narration and this hypothetical person may realise they need to demonstrate something in further detail...yeah, it's a lot of work regardless if a person is just restoring/building something and even more if filming it as well.
Then of course is the moment of the first test and...something goes catastrophically wrong. Or everything is fine, until you show whatever it is to someone else and...something goes catastrophically wrong. Any one of us, myself very much included here, knows that particular kind of pain...
I really love Jay's appreciation and spotlighting of the craftsman and artisans that work on his machines.
I wish Jay responded to comments, I've been trying to send him a note for ages.
Would be nice for him to explain the deletion of so many videos like his Corvair, Gulstrand Corvette, and Ace motorcycles.
Nathan Gould Last I knew, Jay still used a Flip Phone. I doubt He ever checks this Page. It's always cool when a Celebrity UA-cam Channel is actually used by the Celebrity.
Send him a nice letter. He may respond to that.
send him a car to restore, with a note in the glove box...lol
+Johnny Doe ~ All intelligent people use flip phones. They fit in any pocket, have a nice protective cover, and cost next to nothing. There's no downside to them. I'll never understand idiots who want to drag the idiotnet around with them. It'll still be there when you get home.
first time I saw the arm in action at work, the car manufacturer used the arm to scan an Assembly and the told all the parts supplier how far off(in mm) their parts are from the CAD drawings. I hated it....... but I learned a lot.
The speed that the thing was scanning was cray
I guess I heard 82 grand?
robbie adams it's a super niche market with little or no competition.
robbie adams when you hear that they cut the price in half by removing the wifi and touch screen, you get a sense of what kind of price inflation is built into that price tag
Hardware & software. I guess you've never payed for a software license before.
Basic SolidWorks seat is $2200 a year.
9 years=$19800. That's just one computer using it. If you can output a solid model in a useable format that's a bargain. It beats the hell out of a CMM.
niche market with limited sales capacity and high cost of development. i'm sure if the market gets bigger and more people demand such products, more competitors join in and in a few yeas you would probably buy a very nice one for less than 5 grnad
it's 40 grand for automotive segment which is pretty reasonable
You can save yourself 25-30% on genuine Benz parts by going through one of the Benz dealers who advertise online
instead of the Classic Center. They come from the same source. OE Discount Parts is my go to.
Glad to see Jimmy, he looks happy. Boyd's crew wasn't very nice to him.
...and repairing or creating duplicate metalwork on machines that span 100 years. No one at Boyd's had that talent.
God Bless Jay and his team for keeping us linked to our amazing innovations of the past. That 3D scanner is powerful. Can't wait to see the 280SE finished. It's a beaut!
I hope someone has explained the value of Source Code Control Systems like Git to whoever looks after Jay's files. Scanning and 3-D printing has similar problems to the creation of computer programs. The output of the scanner, and the files subsequently created from them almost certainly go through several iterations, possibly generating variants (thicker material in certain places, for example). Being able to track changes (and backtrack if required) is a major convenience.
I wish these restoration blogs were monthly instead of quarterly. Always seem to be my favorite episodes. I also think doing a blog on making a part from start to finish using the Faro / 3D printing and all the other post processes would be really cool. Keep up the great work with the videos, Jay+team!
Man Jays the man, one of my dreams is just to travel to US, to Burbank and see his wonderful garage and just chat with Jay...that would be awesome. I like how theres not a single commercial on these videos, just pure enjoyment.
that scanner seems like alien technology to me and im only 29 years old
Josh Kimbrell That laser scanner,is awesome!!!
Josh Kimbrell Predator had the first gen, Remember how it couldn't see Ahnold when he was covered in mud?
It's not. It's old tech (had a few blue laser scanners). What is alien (or might as well be) is the software.
Non uniform rational splines > Garbage fractals. Give it to a pro to do it right.
Looks like something out of a dentist's office.
I'm curious....what happened to that little Nash metro that you had on here a while back? I have one that I plan on restoring and I'd love to see yours get in good condition.
Hey Jay, it would be great if Mercedes actually provided all the parts for all the cars they've ever made, but they've disco'd all kinds of stuff. You can't buy lock sets for a W126 at any price.
That's not a bad price for the scanner if you had a 3d printing and casting business you could make anything!
Nice show. What happened to the Ford Lotus Cortina project Jay ?
Mesabi was founded in Hibbing Minnesota in 1957. Don't know if that is still their headquarters or not/
I would like to see a video of his office workers. He must have an office in the garage. If he has 200 vehicles, who keeps up on all the registrations and titles? Who communicates with the DMV when he purchases a vehicle? Who gets on the phone/net to locate a car/motorcycle he is looking for? Who schedules all the video shoots? Who locates a specific difficult/rare part? Who calls the vendors for off the shelf parts? Who signs for delivery of oil, tools, etc? If he sends a vehicle out, who coordinates it? There are a lot of tasks other than the mechanics/fabricators. There must be at least a half dozen people in his office making phone calls and such.
Jay? Does the printed part need the autoclave or an oven?
dear jay seand jimmy to see a doctor its not breathing ok ...
I would bet that Jay's legacy, over time, will be less focused on his Tonight Show and more about his contributions to automotive history.
Skip to 8:19 if you want to dispense with the infomercial
I would love to have a garages like that I think he got 11 garages
Oh well, if that are going to cut the $82-K cost in half, then I'll take a dozen of them! 👀
What space shuttle Jay? Thanks to Obama we don`t have one of those now.
The car of the future will be anything you want..........
Jay why don't you start a side business for the garage selling bespoke replacement parts?
Anyone else have a hard time understanding how much the guy said the robot was lol
robbie adams 82k
Very impressive but I don't under stand how it knows the wall thickness of the material and/or the contours INSIDE.
I love that Jay gives his craftsmen credit for their work. It takes a real man to share the spotlight like he does.
I'm sure Madera was happy to do a great job cuz they knew you'd plug them.
Is it me, or does Jay scream mob boss? He has been apart of our family for a long time and we constantly watch his UA-cam series! Oh btw $82000..... Really $82k wow
Oops at 5:10 - someone tell Jay the Space Shuttle hasn't flown in more than half a decade!
These restoration blogs just keep getting better! The frustrating part is that we get 'just a taste' of the great automobiles you are returning to a useful life! I like to see your craftsmen and I also see great value in your providing website information: you have had to search this stuff out and other restorers (with no staff) can find a lot of what they need to make an otherwise hopeless project successful. Thanks!
They make 3D printing sound like a magic bullet, what about all the interior, hidden moving parts, don't think that's gonna be so easy!!
3D printing technology is really maturing quickly. In only a few years, I'd expect quality 3D machine prices to drop.
what happen to the zl1 review u promised
@ 12:03 Hey Jay- last time I check Mercedes was a German company, so to you and me that IS a foreign country! :D
jay cool.
Hell just scan a 73 Rivi Job done
Jay Leno's Garage is Willy Wonkas for Car people.
Thank you jay u wonderful bloke.
Cool old Mercedes, nice of you to touch on the wood interior. What motor is in that old silver bullet?
Mesabi is a company that builds heat exchangers in Hibbing, Minnesota (on the iron range)
Paul Thomas I used to buy all my lifting equipment at sharrow in Hibbing. I think they can make anything up there. a guy from chisholm started a shop making AR's a few years back. castings and all.
Did he say 82 Grand?
Roman Avila Its steep but lets say you make automotive accessories like aftermarket body trim, You will pay for this eliminating lost time in one year.
Yes it would be nice having that in a shop and like Jay said..for parts that are not made anymore.
I was expecting a much higher number when Jay asked the price .
Sounds very reasonable to me, and the rep even mentioned free lifetime support .
You can't expect consumer goods prices for gear like that .
82 grand in an industry of automotive needs is pocket change, but imagine you buy this and you do more than just scan car parts, you make a join with architecture needs, boy, they'll pay you grand. Whilst the price for LiDars has been dropping, years ago, the price for one unit makes this laser seem like a toy.
Not to mention that this particular scanner is far superior from a LiDar in the sense that you can acquire true 3D data, where as with a LiDar you have to switch ref points.
that's not expensive at all. That equip pays itself fairly quickly.
what about the VOLVO POLESTAR?
