      It’s crazy how a slight glance might make you think something stupid like MG, or I don’t know, just another little spider, Japanese, English, all forgettable, I couldn’t care less about an Austin Cooper Healey MG Diet Sprite that frankly looks stupid. Glance for one more split second, and this thing is jaw dropping. The modern Aston Martins are the same way, soooo sexy. This blue is stunning. Some of these Ferraris just lose me from in front of the back wheels on back, almost truncated poorly, like a knife where you broke off the tip and tried to reshape it back to the original shape but wasn’t gonna happen. When they are right, they are sooooo right. A Sunbeam Tiger looks very much like this, but also, not quite, not as sinuous, not as extended as a great Ferrari. These are shaped as if to suggest a powerful animal about to pounce or chase. How beautiful.

    Nice PF , my favorite. When I was about 13 back in 1962 in Phoenix AZ, my dad knew a guy who owned 2 PF's, a Cabriolet and a Coupe', the Cab was red and the Coupe' was silver. He was German. I remember like it was yesterday seeing them both parked in a building which had a large window facing Central Ave downtown Phoenix then. My dad and I, meet him at Sunset Point about 60 miles north of Phoenix on a Sunday, he had the Silver Coupe', my dad and I road up to drive back with him, to the Valley. My dad and I on his new Gold Triumph Bonneville. I remember so well that image, looking inside the Ferrari and seeing that he had his black racing gloves perfectly crossed on the leather hump between the seats, and that ash tray lid that has the flags on it, with a small sign that read" Please Do Not Touch " That was a memory etched in may sole. Hearing it start up, the most beautiful sound and smell of the high octane fuel of the time, and when he drove out of what was then a dirt lot, grabbed a little gravel and spun the revs up through the gears, That was right out of a movie, the only thing that could have made that moment grander, is if Sophia Loren had been driving. Great memories.

      Did you notice that when you look at the car, there are no visible body panel seams. The rear fender flows under the door to the front fender, wraps around the front and back - I do not see a visible seam except for the doors, hood and trunk lid. I don't know if there are welds hidden under the paint or if the body shell is literally 1-piece. Amazing effect though.

      This video was dropped a little over an hour ago, and at this moment it has about 220 or so comments, but no one has yet mentioned seeing Carl before on JLG.
      I've known Carl since 1997 when I stopped by a Ferrari shop he was working at in Glendale, Ca.
      Carl is a good dude. Some of you might recall when he brought in the "Piranha" a few years ago to JLG? I still think it was pretty unfair that all those keyboard warriors that never met him, or knew him, dogpiled on him, and said some awful things.
      Hell, we're lucky he ever came back with a car after that.

Thrown together to be put on the market to make $. Every panel needs to be easily replaceable. And all of the crash safety stuff that has to be included in cars nowadays. It’s definitely ruined the overall flow that older vehicles possessed. Timeless is a great word. It’s hard for a modern car to be timeless. Just truth 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Great Video, beautiful car! My Dad bought, in 1955, an XK140. He told me later in life (I wasn't born then) that he loved the XK engine because it could run at high speed or in the city and never miss a beat. He heard, in the day, that that was the problem with Ferrari's. Besides having wavy body panels (hand built) they would typically load up in traffic and were not happy unless they ran at 6000 rpm. It was interesting to see Jay having the same problem!

    When I was 18 I was apprenticing at a European car repair shop, the first Ferrari 250 I was learning to tune was that engine. It would run on one bank so smooth that you could hardly tell the difference other than the exhaust noise sounding different, smooth. It was such a thrill and treat to work on Ferrari to me back then. Nothing since ever matched the Colombo V12's sound.

    This summer I saw one of those. A mechanic from a restoration company drove a survivor with quite some flaws on a lift to power wash the bottom of the car.
    Even unrestored and rough it was an experience.
    The more I study the grill of the car the more I am sure that I have exactly that type of grill in my storage. My father used to restore classics in his body shop. A client wanted to replace the front grill of his car. The condition of the old grill was so good that my Dad kept it for ages. Unfortunately he does not know exactly what model it came from. He only remembered: "It was a very old classic Ferrari".

    In the early 1960s, Car & Driver had a review of a Ferrari and noted that at speed, it sounded like “ripping canvas”. They joked around a lot back then. But then I heard one taking off and it did sound like someone was ripping canvas.

      I had a road test in an old Road & Track my uncle had given me a stack of vintage car mags when i was around 14 and i remember the crazy price. $12,500 for a fastback V12 powered Grand Tourer. Reminds me of the changes that have taken place during my lifetime. Imagine $2,000 being all or nearly all of the sticker on a new Impala. Here i was reading a road test of a car costing 4 TIMES AS MUCH!!!!

    A great car from the days when Italian chassis manufacturers and independent body builders worked to produce staggeringly beautiful cars. So much in the body design that can be seen on contemporary Lancia and Alfa cars bodied by Italian coachwork firms. The slender screen pillars, the lines that follow through from front to rear, the wrap around rear bumpers and the interior with full instrumentation in a simple, but elegant dashboard. No excess, just great lines and beautiful style. And a car to use - beautiful in every respect. Thanks to both of you for the video. It gives me something to look forward to every week!

    Old car magazines usually featured the SWB versions so seeing this LWB is a treat. As Jay says, they were just used cars back before everything was commodified. I recall a day/night difference between driving this car with top up and top down. So different that it felt like punishment when the top was up--also, the fabric weather sealing was confining. The motor made all kinds of intricate noises so that turning it off was as notable as turning it on. Beautiful bodywork, but it must have been heavy for the small motor. At higher speeds the car seemed to drift using the Laycock de Normanville OD. The SWB might have handled better. I remember reading about a horrid accident in which a LWB smashed against a tree in the Bois de Boulogne killing its driver, Porfirio Rubirosa, who transitioned into legend. Thank you, Jay.

    What an empathetic and all around great guy Jay Leno is! His guest in this video reminds me of many of my "motorhead" friends from my pre-teen, teenage, and later years. They were all, similar to this accomplished auto mechanic and phenomenal Ferrari restorer, Carl Steuer, in that their interpersonal communication skills weren't all that refined. But they all had a remarkable passion for being the best at what they did, and they did it because they liked it! Oftentimes, I've wished that I, too, had that kind of innate drive to be the best. Watching and hearing Jay bring out the heartfelt beliefs and endearing memories of this great guy was a special treat. Almost as remarkable as the fruits of Mr. Steuer's assiduous work, one rare and typically magnificent Ferrari. Thanks immensely to Jay and his verbally taciturn but genuinely authentic guest, Carl!
