Car guy reading about a car guy
I am trying very hard not to read every article of "
Jay Leno's Garage
" column in Popular Mechanics. I'm at work today and I should be working. But I keeping finding myself reading it, and thinking, I'll just finish reading this article and then I will go back to work. Most people know Jay as the host of the Tonight Show and as a stand up comedian. However most car guys know that he has a garage to drool over. I just found his column today while reading another article in Popular Mechanics on Alternative fuels.
Enter Bernard Juchli, foreman of the "Jay Leno More-Money-Than-Brains Garage." Bernard has built numerous race-winning cars and worked on many projects over the years. He took one look at this project and said, "Just shoot me now." -- Jay Leno
This is my favorite quote so far and it is from the article "
Now That's a Hot Rod
" a hand built hot rod with an 800+ bhp 1560 ft-lb of torque engine out of a M-47 Patton Tank.
Have a quick read, it's some fun stuff.
