Love the look, design and sound and that it's from a salvage yard and father, sons and friends put this together and had a great time doing it! It's beautiful rolling art!

Having been brought up around old airplanes and adding my love for all things automobile, I found this project mesmerizing! The combining of the Golden age of aviation and the automobile became greater than the parts! It reminded me of seeing an elderly couple, who'd been together for 60 years, but were sitting on a park bench, holding hands, and looking at one another with that same spark they'd felt for one another at eighteen! Together, that spark lit a fire. That fire not only warmed their lives, but those of everyone that saw them together, and realized that true love that lasted a lifetime, did exist! That's how this project made me feel when I saw how that old Cessna/Jacobson Radial and all the other aviation influence made that old '39 something it never dreamed it could be!!! The guys from Denver really did both aviation and the classic car world a favor bringing the two together in such an amazing way!! Thank you to them, and to Jay for showing us!

One of the out-of-the-box episode of Jay Leno's garage. Great Show Jay.

Great video Jay, America loves you and the great cars! I bet most folks don't know that Sherman Tanks in WW2 originally had 9 cylinder radial engines as their drive engines! Later a crazy complicated 30 cylinder Chrysler multibank diesel, and then finally its best engine (according to the Army) was the DOHC, 4 valve per cyl, flat plane crank, all aluminum 1100cu inch Ford V8. It was 500Hp and over 1000ftlbs all in by 2600 rpm! Cams had no belt or chain it was a incredible gear driven assembly. It was ironically, originally a 12 cylinder fighter aircraft engine designed in the late1930s, that Ford chopped off 4 cylinders from. (Rolls Royce had already secured the aircraft fighter engine contract unbeknownst to Ford.) It was by far the easiest Sherman tank engine to service and was extremely dependable despite being all aluminum and many many thousands of lbs lighter than the other engines. 30,000 were made according to historical figures.

My favorite car on the show, love the fact that it was a family built project. Blaze on guys you’re awesome!!

I literally just asked myself , "Can you put a radial engine in a car?" . As I looked up at plane that had just taken off from the nearby airport. I could hear the unique sound of the engine and when I looked up , the distinct silhouette of the engine sticking out behind the single propeller. AWESOME! Also Jay makes a great point, you guys want more creativity and beauty , SMOKE EM IF YOU GOT EM! Legalize it?

Well built machine I love how the team put it all together and made it look like an air plane and to use a work TRUCK to boot. Keep the salvage yard going. I'm from the bay area of California where they built the battle ships we had one of the biggest salvage yards. Then they came out with regulations where they all had to shut down.

R.I.P. Norman Sample. I knew Gary Corns. Not well though. I had an 8 month stint as a wrecker driver moving cars inside the yard in 1991. The yard "Tow truck" I used was a late 70's dodge 1/2 ton with a 1940's era human powered winch. Turn the wheel 15 times and Up she goes. Flip a lever and use a glove to friction control spin 'er down. Founder Norm, was eco-minded(sarc)before green. I was "promoted" to winchman after my predecessor left. I knew there would be the day when the old man was laid to rest. Nice job on expansion Gary! Looks like you have the property all the way to old man Svigels place too. Sheridan/Denver, Co. A great place to leave.

One of only few times I havve seen Jay to be at lost for words and speechless that says a lot with the men that owns everything epic car and airplane 👍👍💪💪😀😉 definitely commends high respect for the guy and his sons and everyone who was involved in this creation.. a true automotive airplane masterpiece. RESPECT

Love it!! ..love the smoke too and like Jay said ..you never know when you're on fire! ..precious! ..I laughed like hell when I heard Jay say that about the smoke!

Think about this that was only one bank of 7 heads , the WWII bombers had 4 of those making up 1 engine 2 per wing. A 28 cylinder radial engine, unbelievable power. unbelievable oil and fuel consumption. Jay did I miss you showing them your radial bike, and Aviation theme what about the Chrysler turbine car of yours?

My understanding of aircraft engines is that the RPM redline is only about 1500-2000. I would have liked to know the final drive ratio from the crank to the rear wheels. If I am correct it must be close to 1:1 or less to get any kind of speed up. Obviously, torque is more than sufficient. Also, This is the first time I have seen a piston aircraft engine run without a prop. I have always assumed that some kind of prop was needed to act as a flywheel. A very fascinating piece of engineering and first rate craftsmanship! Thanks for the closeup look.

Now this is a work of art, love the passion given to detail.
