I happened across that video over the weekend. Nothing like letting Jay drive your 442 and having him screw it up.

Nice segment and always nice to see Olds getting some air time, but....
BB Chevy
The owner kept calling it a 4-forty-2 (think Jay got it right even though he trashed the headers)

Jay accelerating onto an off-ramp. What a dumbass.
what amazes me is that the car owner is so low-key about him screwing up his car.

doesn't everyone with a 1960s oldsmobile have visor problems?

that's exactly what I was thinking

Fellers don't wear seat belts driving that eh?
That is dumb.

Engine sounds great. I wonder who the nameless guy was that muffed the first engine that cause the need for a beasty 700 ft-lbs crate motor?

I would like to see Leno feature ORDINARY people with their cars, not "famous entertainers".
