Thank you, Jay. If it wasn't for you, the general public would never have the amazing privilege to see great automobiles like this. You are a good man.

Jay, you are truly a good guy. The gracious manner you have with your guests (especially the older ones) is truly heartwarming. No hyperbolae, I really mean it. Thanks for the best show on KZread

I was just thinking I was in the mood to watch an episode of Jay Leno's garage. This is perfect timing.

That is one cool Old Timer, big thumbs up for Bob Shaw!

One of the best interviews I've seen on here. A lot of other interviews have that sales pitch tone to them. I love the way he answered the questions short and to the point. A man that doesn't have time to mess around.

Wow... Stevens designed that car in 1959? That's quite exquisite. Looks like something that would pass as a modern car today.

A personal statement to Jay and his crew. This is a passion for the Automobile that you guys present for us and what moves me the most is that you guys do this without a partnership with KZread. No money is being earned through ads. You do these videos for the love of showing us unusual and wonderful automobiles. Kudos to you Jay, and to your film crew for all you do to present us with these fantastic videos. Cheers!! Zip~

One day we will all get old and look back in our days past. Letting a man tell his stories and reflect and be able to feel validated by the respect shown my ppls interest in the subject matter. Mr.Leno does it like nobody can.

Pretty awesome car...looks like a cross between a GT40 and a Stingray. It's like something straight out of Speed Racer. An impressive machine for sure.

Hands down one of the prettiest cars I've ever seen. The lines are right. The colors are right. What a great piece of functional art. Then there's that beast-from-hell exhaust note...

I was waiting for that guy to say, "Great Scott!"

I love when Jay brings in guys like this. I imagine this guy can go on and on with stories about cars hes owned, built, driven, and the interesting people hes met around the industry.

Jay if you ever see this.. you need to do more sit down interviews with car legends like Bob Shaw. I really enjoyed the talking part. it was very intriguing to learn about what influenced Brook in terms of design, and what influenced Bob in terms of materials among other things. Great interview, and video as always!

I absolutely love Jay Leno's garage. My dad was a mechanic and if he were still alive he would appreciate it also. To see how you bring all those cars from our era back to life is wonderful. I know I'll never have the chance to afford a muscle car from my youth, as you and I Jay are around the same age, it's nice to see that someone like you can share the joy of the ride with us through your website. Thanks Jay Leno! !😃

My grandfather David worked for Brooks Stevens back in the day. You're missed, this is so cool to see! What a tribute

Jay, you are such a good spirit. Thank you so much for allowing this great gentlemen on your show. He truly one of the greats!!

good for Bob for getting out and showing off his car !

It isn't to often we see Jay Leno turn back in to an interested 12 year old boy asking questions and being awe struck by who he is talking to and what he sees in front of him. This is one of those great few videos where Jay is able to show what really gets him going and what he enjoys while he is able to show his enthusiasm.

I've dreamed of building my own car for 20 years. Seeing cars like this are a real inspiration. I've got to figure out a way to build something before it's too late

Fantastic video of a fantastic car. Its the definition of custom and a real tribute to veterans like Bob and Brooks.

Great interview Jay. We need more sit downs with these legends before they fade away with their history and incredible knowledge. Also surprised to see this great Brooks Stevens design come to life. What a beautiful car. I was fortunate to have a Stevens family Pantera and classic Excaliber in my driveway back in the late 80's thanks to a mutual family friend, when I grew up in Milwaukee.

Wow. This car design is amazing. It is near timeless with the body lines. Fantastic. Sounds great too. Nice...very nice

Robert Shaw is an original. Great car and a great inspiration to us in the over 65 club :-).

Jay, you are truly a good guy. The gracious manner with which you treat people (especially the older ones) is truly heartwarming. Thanks for the best car show ever. Oh how I would love to visit your garage. Someday !

This is a very special car. One thing it has roots to the Excalibur that was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. My home. Quality built by a old timer but still has a grip on the new. Love it. Thanks Jay.

I would love to just sit down and talk to this man while going through some photo albums. Amazing work.

My favorite thing about Jay's attitude towards cars. He keeps it simple, you know? He lets a car (even a super rare one) be a car. I love that.

Hi Jay! Great show. I have just recently started following through the internet. Just wanted to thank you for being so patient and respectfull to Bob. He has sufferd alot over the years; and can be difficult to deal with. I like how you respect all your guests on your shows; your a class act..............................

What an amazing individual; what an amazing piece of art. The colour scheme, swooping lines, the craftsmanship & finish; perfection in its purest form.

Usually homebuilt/one off cars don't do it for me, but this car is gorgeous. The right color combo and those wire wheels just make it pop.

Thanks for showing this awesome vehicle and it's great designer-builder ! I hope that this car is around for a long time to honor him.

You've gotta treasure these old guys... We treasure you Jay - Thanks for staying down to earth for us guys who like cars as much as you do...

Quick change rear ratio? So cool. Didn't know about that, but makes so much sense.

Love the sound of that motor.

Nice car. Great panel work. The final design sure looks better than the original.

Loved the big ole’ smile when J asked him if the “electric door motors were done, just to be cool?”

That aluminum body is incredible work. Jay Leno....MAN FOR THE COMMON MAN CAR NUT!

That car is a conglomeration of the best looking American cars ever built. But its so beautiful you'd never know it was built today but designed 50 years ago. Amazing car

This is such an inspiration for car design students like me. Beautiful!

this is such a nice car . looks simply beautiful . the only draw back would be it has a common engine . but even that it not that bad , it is a good reliable power plant . the rear tires and wheels are simply beautiful . the guy who designed this was a artist genius . he in effect designed the 63 corvette . Bob Shaw added to it details worthy of any design house . Thanks Jay for showing us one off cars like this . There is no way we all could see these in action

leno is a classy guy love the respect he shows to the every day guy and the old craftsmen of years past !

Every little thing is Jay's garage is worth a treasure hunt

It's not hard to make a roadster look good but this goes so far beyond that. It is one of the best looking cars I have ever seen.

Jay - "What was the first car you built yourself?" Bob - "It was a old Bugatti Type 38, i sawed the body in half & shortened it" Jay - "oh really, the Bugatti club will come looking for you"

Wow, this is very, very impressive and unique, too. Thank you such much for this episode! I`m in awe, this is so beautiful.

Great story about a great car. The owner telling the story added a lot. Thanks Jay I really appreciate your efforts.

Beautiful looking and sounding car! Thank you Mr. Shaw for sharing. And thank you Jay for your love of cars.

Beautiful sensual car! .. But what's more fascinating is that the designer who is obviously in pain & suffering medically, overcomes his anguish & continues to produce wonderful creations! That's the lesson of this video Ty

When I was young I used to view old people as useless, decrepit and pitiful. As if I would be young forever. Now at 62 years old I have a different view. Never thought I would live this long. Older people have wisdom and experience that transcends time. And when they pass away we lose a valuable resource. I was mistaken when younger. Very nice car. Thanks Jay.

Fantastic Interview, beautiful car.....thanks again Jay and staff!

"Got to treasure these old guys." Indeed, we too often forget that.

I love cars like this that exemplify the craftimanship and love some people have for machines and cars in particular, well done

Love the one off car !, Love the work and effort that went in to build it ! Love Jays interest and understanding of what it takes to build something like this Roadster ! Great story Jay !

Excalibur... As an 80s child, that brings back memories of US replicas of 1930's Mercedes SSK's and SS Tourers and Roadsters. Giant sculptures of cars for Hollywood parties and the like, with the running boards and the six giant chrome pipes coming out of the coffin bonnet. Is that the same Excalibur? Is that this old man?

Thanks for making sure we get to know the legends and statesmen of the automotive world, Jay! Taking 10 years to build anything these days is such a rarity. Great stuff!

Really appreciate this episode. Excellent.

Thanks 4 Sharing !! Beautiful car!!

Jay, you make my day with these....I will continue to thank you every time you post this.. Thanks again from Texas :)

I love what you do for us Jay; you are a great man and my hero!

Friggin Awesome. The build quality is fantastic. Beautiful.

Awesome !! So good to hear the story ,of the designer who never get enough credit.. great video

jay is one humble guy . thanks jay i love every episode

Yes I think it would be absolutely outstanding if Jay would get a team together and build his own 1-off car. He could do a fantastic video series taking us through the entire process from idea to finish, even designing his own engine. Not many people have the ways and means to take on such a project, it would be his perfect car.

Mr. Shaw has built a thing of beauty.

I am always surprised at the videos Mr Leno comes up with..... that enlighten us ALL.......boy this is giving us some history......... and insight.

I'm not totally sold on the design but the workmanship in this car is amazing and the interior is one of the best I've seen in a car like it.

Finishing line is awesome... Treasure indeed

That car is simply stunning!

Honoring a great builder. Classy.

Jay looks like a giant on a scooter in a lot of these vids involving smaller vehicles. The intro 'cruise in' of this vid made me snicker impudently.

Bob Shaws the man! Legend.

Wonderful creation! I wish I had an imagination and resources to build something like that. So simple in a lot of ways and yet very sophisticated!

Apart from the outstanding details and craftmanship I really like that it is not a roaring beast. Nice and subtle sound that becomes distinct when you open the throttle

14:40 I love how Jay says, "It feels like a production automobile, It's amazing!" and the next shot shows the rear trunk lid flying up and down lol!

Great story. Thanks Jay.

Just Awesome, that you was able to interview this Great Man Bob Shaw and put his car into one of your Video's. Nice Job, Jay. One thing I noticed is the rear deck lid is bouncing as you was driving the car.

Very cool. Very well done and nicely built. Looks and sounds great too! What a great legacy to leave behind. It's fantastic he got a boost in public awareness of these cars thanks to Jay. More people definitely needed to know about this and his other cars. Best of health to Mr. Shaw, so that he may be a part of the automotive world just that much longer.

What a beautiful car!

That's a cool car and a real car guy for certain!

love the subtle roar of the motor

wow that is a stunning car , quite amazing ! more stuff like this please

Beautiful. It incorporates some of my favorite design cues.

Wow what great history.. thank you

We do treasure...great individual and great inspiration!

Wow beautiful....thanks Jay

Thanks Jay this was an amazing episode

Robert Shaw is a very talented, hip guy and this car is tremendously appealing!

Thank you for a good look at a car and creator I would otherwise not have the opportunity to see.

Love the looks of that car. A beauty!

Jay, you have to add this one to the collection....and with such a rare and beautiful car, give Mr. Shaw a signed blank check because if you got to ask the price you can’t afford it! (And you can!). What a beautiful sports car! Talk about a smart investment, what’s that car going to be worth in 10 years?, 2x or 3x what you pay now? BUY IT!!!
