Having said that, I followed the build of this car and whilst it is perfection, there is some debate about the authenticity.

He did quite well in this interview, and generally does very well with guests like this that have well proven credentials, but he shows a lot more of his bad habits that I mentioned when interviewing people he's skeptical of, or that prove to be mediocre communicators or just plain PR people. Whether the those things he does are intentional as a way of subtly showing his disappointment, or if they're just an unintentional consequence brought on by the awkwardness that the bad communicators/PR guys create, I'm not sure, but they are habits that definitely don't make the interviews any better to watch, imo.

I really enjoy you showing off the car is in your garage and all the old technology what a beautiful job they did on the Bugatti

I was asked to build the Aerolithe in 04. Did all the R&D. Guy couldn't get the money together. I was very surprised to see this as it was being fabricated online at The Guild. They did a Hell of a job. Congratulations for all the accolades and accomplishments this car has received. Bravo

The gentleman that wanted me to build just the body, now runs a shop in NH. He had lined up as much information as he could, chassis etc. I kept in contact for a year then the project was shelved. We never got the project off the ground. I had sent emails to well known experienced shapers asking about the problems with shaping Magnesium. This was a very important build. Dave and the guys did a beautiful job figuring all the details out that may have not been recorded. As far as myself, I was a coachbuilder/metalshaper at RM Classic Cars for 10 years being part of the team that restored the Daimler Double Six 50 that won Pebble in 06. Cheers to the little shop in Bradford Ontario

Swolbraham Lincoln - Back in the 50s there was a big old poorly lit barn like auto shop in Mountain View CA; we hung around when we were boys. They owned an original V16 Caddy that was parked over in a corner of the garage. That car was truly magnificent; it was huge.

Absolutely stunning workmanship on this car.

An amazing machine, so immaculately clean and smooth that it looks like a 3-D render rather than a physical object.

Amazing video. I was hoping just to hear Jay talk about this car, because I read about the build a few years ago. To see it moving, albeit slowly, is an absolute treat. My hat's off to David for allowing the car to be driven on the street.

Wow, this is why Jay Leno's channel is the best for cars. Just two walking encyclopedias having an awesome chat about the idiosincrasies of Bugattis and vintage cars. No click bait or drama. Loved it. Gorgeous car. Glad it was allowed to be driven. Amazing they were able to recreate it so well, specially using old techniques. Awesome video!

As a Chevy lover, if I died and went to heaven. I would either pick a Bugatti or a Deusenberg to drive around down there!!!!! To say these two car models and companies made beautiful vehicles is a HUGE understatement!!! Glorious!!! How about that adjective!!! Am I even close??????! Deity like???! Thank You Very Much, Mr. Leno!!!! P. S. You are also one of my very favorite comics of all time!!!!!

Love this guest!! he is the man!

I just love how laid back this show and Jay is. Talk about relaxing your guest....

I watched this car being built on TV they were all losing their minds for years it's a beautiful thing to look at

22:12 What a great start up noise! I really love the sound of a good starter motor followed by an engine exploding into life and this is one of the most interesting sounding combinations I've heard in a while!

Really interesting. I've been lucky enough to drive maybe a dozen different Bugattis in the 70s. I even took one of the straight 8 engines apart and put it back together again - after having re-decorated the engine. I got a kick hearing you talk about going to a proctologist to have dental work done. Once I got that engine apart, I said "WTF?" And I was cursed with big hands! But I eventually got the engine back in the car and got it running. While the engine had obviously been "rebuilt" prior to my working with it, I discovered it had no oil pump. So, me being a Studebaker guy, I took an NOS Champion oil pump and adapted it to the Bug engine. I remember modifying a 3/8ths ratchet extension to drive the pump. As to the magnesium construction, I happened to be at Northrup Aviation in the early 80s. I was working on some of their sheet metal machines. I met a fella that had been there for years. I asked if he'd ever seen the prototype fighter plane - the XP-56 - that Northrup had developed during WWII. To my surprize, he told me it was stored in one of the buildings at their facility there. He even offered to let me clamber over it where it set. He explained that they had hoped to restore it to "display" condition - the only other one having been destroyed in testing during WWII. When we got to where it was, it was quite a bit apart. Still, I was really excited to be able to touch a bit of history that I had been enthused about for years. I asked how often it got worked on and he allowed as how work was at a stand-still and had been for sometime. What had brought it's restoration to a halt was the fact that they couldn't find ANYONE who knew how to weld magnesium. The plane had been designed to be built with a lot of the lightweight metal, but working with the stuff was a lost art. I don't know that the "Black Bullet" (as it was known as) ever did get restored.

If Northrup had developed (or rediscovered) their own methods for welding magnesium panels for fighter aircraft during the war, they were surely regarded as top secret. If they wrote it down at all, any manual would have been locked away in some classified store and forgotten.

Hi Jay: This has been a delight. David has been one of the most beautiful guests you have hosted .

One of my family members help build this car and I can say a lot of years went in to it!! what a piece of automotive art

Remember watching the Guild series when they were building it. Not enough credit goes to the craftsmen whose talent brought this beautiful car to life. I think the guy who did the metal work subsequently left the Guild shop. Even more amazing done in a small out of the way shop north of Toronto Canada.

I love watching this channel. This guy was one of your best guests you’ve ever had. I liked when he said you don’t know how to drive a car til you’ve driven one from 1905.
