Thank you Jay. Thank you for not being pretentious about money. You made it, you have it, now you do stuff! Everyone in America should look up to you. And everyone should say "Hey, this is his thing, I like his thing." Long Live Jay Leno.
Hello everyone - Since I am the one who put the turntable there, I am glad that most of the commentary here is positive.
To answer some of the questions - yes, we make outdoor units, but they are designed to be in a pit (flush surface) and there was not sufficient time to get the permits required and excavate.
Since the garage does have a lower level, a pit was not possible inside, thus the surface mount. This one was built to handle his longest car, the Duesenberg (152" wheelbase), so it will handily accommodate any of his others.
Keep watching Jay's garage - he is the best thing to happen to "car people" since, well, cars!!!!

Hello Bill..I live in Australia and there is an increasing problem of little kids being run over by SUVs in home driveways and turntables would largely eliminate the danger to them..they are also excellent if you are living on a busy road where it's very dangerous to reverse out into traffic..keep up the good work..you are probably saving lives and you may not even realize it.
And you are right about Jay..he gives a lot of time and effort to share his collection..from watching him I have learned more about steam cars in one hour than months of reading.
Jay's face reaction at 1:10, after the guy says: "Projects like yours where you really need to be able to pull out!" :))) priceless
I'm so glad Jay's leaving The Tonight Show...
Because that means more Jay's Garage. Ha ha ha ha! Welcome home Mr. Leno!
Glad you're stuck with us Mr. Leno. We can't get enough of you.
great way to turn a 6 car garage into a one car garage,
Well when you have a 100+ car garage I doubt you care. You can only drive one home after all.
If they were sunk-into the floor as Jay suggested, and positioned right... you could still fit another car or two in there, I'd imagine. Depends on your space, obviously - but I doubt many normal folks even have a 3+ car garage, or the money to buy a giant turntable, haha.
Jogwheel but he could board out the rest of the floor space, thats what i would do.
My guess is that's probably not his real turn-table but instead that's a display unit that was installed just for this show. Notice that he was talking about guys having to turn hard on gravel ... he's probably got a different unit installed on his property that is out of date so they're showing this one instead.
gmtruckclub I really don't think he cares if he can only fit one car in it.. and rent the other space out? Why? So some random person has access to his garage ..and you think he needs the extra money? lmao
If the turntable was outside, you probably could still use all your garage bays.
Agreed. I've seen various other homes utilize outdoor turntables with huge success. A turntable outdoors not only allows for full garage use, but makes any situation easier than something indoors could do. However all the ones i've seen outdoors were permanently mounted within the driveway and would likely not be as easily serviced/repaired.
Alan Bowers RamblinAround like an old railroad turntable
richardg412 Yes, exactly.
that's what i was thinking
i guess its for the luxury of not having to back out of the garage
Please do live Late Night Garage with Jay Leno. I would be the best TH-cam show
Jay, I think its time for you to step in and take over American top gear now and fix that train wreck of a show. Fire all of the hosts and start from scratch! You would be an amazing host of the show that people know isn't a joke when it comes to being a car man!
YES!!!!!
YESSSSSSSSSSS and he can have the uk top gear host as his guests :oooo droooooll
JLG is better than top gear now!
I disagree...sometimes jay get a little too self absorbed..."back in the days we used to do this and that blablabla". Topgear USA finally got a rhythm that works.
*****
But its still a cheap ripoff of the UK version. Even with the challenges they do.
How to spend a pile of money to turn your three car garage into a one car garage. ;)
First though is "he has another garage?"
Glad you'll still be doing Jay Leno's Garage...enjoyed your last show with the Tonight Show
Your replacement on the Tonight Show could never fill your shoes Jay. Here goes another Show that has fallen into the brain dead realm. Good luck to you, you're one in a gazillion!
Crap I missed your last Tonight Show, but congrates on a great career and look forward to more vids here.
Watch it on hulu or the nbc site. It's already up.
We will miss you Jay Leno, but we will love that you still continue doing what you for this channel, Farewell from the late night show, but not good bye as long and you still do this.
I will like to say thank you for entertaining me, and my family for many years. I enjoyed your show each night, and really liked your speech at the end. As far as who I am going to watch now; they have their moments just you had the best presentation. Thanks again, and good luck if you think about doing a youtube project after fallon settles in (if you want to..lol.)
Such a great down to earth guy Jay is. He likes to show his toys and not to be a show off but to share cool things with people who are interested. He always plugs Good American made products by American business owners and employees.
these are so awesome, you could make a half circle of garages with an ally way and have this in the middle, like an old train yard turn table
Sir you are a true hero. Congratulations on the Tonight Show and a timely retirement, which is certainly not an easy thing to do. I hope now you will have a little bit more time to enjoy your collection and share your inspiring passion with us. I wish you all the best. Salut!
Jay's TH-cam channel brings unmitigated joy!!!! I wish I could communicate how much I love his channel, but no language can convey this.
Jay, thank you so much.
Oh man that's awesome, Jays home garage is pretty damn nice
I became a Jay fan once you started showing the electric vehicles some years ago. Over doubled the horsepower on one of mine. They are a true joy. I'd like to hear that story again about the lady coming down from the hills to have her self done up in an early era EV! I'm sure glad we all have a place to find you now Jay! You've always made your own good luck! I'm looking forward to more episodes! The tool segments are so helpful!!!
Jay you've been a favorite of mine since I was a little kid watching American Hot Wax. Was so stoked when you got the tonight show full time and now sad to see you go. Guess we can still see you on here at least. So glad you've been a part of my life.
I dig this show..I love old cars/motorcycles!
Now he can do this show full time...YAY!
Jay, thank you for the last 22 years! You're wicked awesome and always will be.
The inside of his garage is nicer than inside of my house.
I would put that turn table just in front of the garage. Jay I saw your last show last night and I thought I should let you know, no matter what you are thinking it's not over. Not over by a long shot. I scaled everything down and retired. That lasted about a year before I realized, I have to be a productive. I just can't sit around and I don't think you will be able to either. Don't make the mistakes I made by selling stuff. Keep everything, and go right on living like you have another hundred years. I started a small business that doesn't make crap, but it makes me happy and if it ever makes any money I'm going to scale up and go right on with my life, You should do the same.
This garage alone makes my house look like a barn... =P
Just watched Jay's last show on the NBC network Mr.Leno thank You for the laughs, Staying tuned to this fine channel for the most excellent content,Thanks again.
Ok, now you're just showing off--but seriously--Thanks for 22 years of great late night television, Jay; Johnnie would be proud.
Thanks for the Video!!
Let's get this program on the air Jay!
Here Here !!! Thats what I was thinking.
Mike
Watching the last episode of The Tonight Show right now as it happens and Lenos Garage for the commercials I love you Jay!
Thanks for this Jay.....great site. Love to see the motorcycle spots especially. Don't ever retire!
I look forward to every episode of Jay's Garage. Please keep em coming Jay. Thanks
I watch your last show last night, damn I was tearing up too during that last speech. Glad I still got this channel to watch.
I like it, Jay. When the wife and I lived in Lexington, KY, there was an old mansion that had a turntable. Haven't seen another home turntable until now.
He's so fortunate, he gets a home with a 3-car garage and uses every bit of that space for a turntable that holds 1 car! Who am I kiddin' I'd do the same thing if it were me :D love ya Jay!
Thank you for the 22 years Jay ! Looking forward to the next 22 years but now with Jay's Garage !
My late stepfather had an old barn in RI with an old turntable on the second floor. There is a dirt ramp leading up to a large door that we used to drive our old 55 Nash station wagon in. We could turn the car around and push it out the door to jump start it on the ramp, as the battery was almost always weak in the morning.
The Eagle's Nest on Long Island which is also the Vanderbilt Museum has a turnstile like that for I believe Mr. Vanderbilt's 1930s something Lincoln. Me and my brother got the opportunity to see it before it was shown to the public about 10 years ago because we were the only ones there on the tour of the mansion. That was great. Good luck Jay!
Lets take it up to the highway and see how she cruises. Thinking of Jay this week. Hang in there buddy. You have many fans!
I will miss you on the Tonight Show but look forward to watch what you do next. I hope you find someway to combine comedy and cars and bring it to television.
Thank you Jay for supporting the American worker ,and showcasing U.S. Made products.
Nice Mustang Jay Leno. Real nice.
Many of the inner city or town maintenance garages dating back to the 1920 have these.Our own here in Camden Maine was in a multi level three story brick structure mid height.
A slight ramp leading into the maintenance bay with several work stalls, auto round house.
At 1:06 "A project like yours where you really need to pull out." Jay lenos face was priceless the comedian in him almost took it and ran with it. Lmao
Jay , as this is your Channel , and I know you review the comments . I wanted to let you know , America is lost with out on TV . I feel sad knowing I will not see your show any more . with all the automobiles and machinery you own , Please consider putting together a NEW kind of TV show sharing and teaching all of us where and why these kinds of things came about ! . Thank You Jay . your friend in Pennsylvania . Ray
Absolutely gorgeous garage, Jay!
I Fucking Love You Mr. Leno!
Makes the other two garage bays useless. Like you say, Jay: "More money than brains."
The guy has a big garage elsewhere and there's still space for some bikes. Considering he'd have to drive over to his other garage to change cars, and he can take the turntable with him if he moves, the other two bays are a moot point.
Thank you, Jay's personal knob polisher.
So since I disagree with you, you hurl homophobic insults rather than construct an actual counter argument? K. Pretty sure I won here then.
nice show Jay last night as of right now Jay Leno's Garage is prime time on the web and you can enjoy your retirement and work on these cars
I love Jay... We can all live our lives vicariously through the ultimate car guy... :)
For all the naysayers and those who are jealous of Jay and his money, the turntable may not be for everyone. I cannot afford one and do not want to give up the space in my shop. Ideas like this can be a jumping off point for someone with a functioning brain. I need to be able to turn my motorcycle around in my shop. It weighs 1100 pounds, has no reverse and I'm well past 60. After seeing this, I realize that I can make up a channel that I can ride onto that rolls on casters. Weld on an outrigger for the kickstand with another caster and, voila, a portable turntable.
Nice product, Mr. Osborn
Congratulations Jay on 22 years of The Tonight Show! I will continue to be a loyal viewer of yours and I hope to see many more videos to come.
I hope to see more of you here. You really have a passion for everything mechanical. You have perfected your craft over the years to interview people and their stories. That is what makes you so special. Thank you so much for your inspiration! Roll on...
I saw a similar contraption years ago but it had no electric motors at all. The turntable used the weight of the car and a slight inbalance to cause the turntable to rotate 180 degrees. So by just shifting the car back or forwards on the turntable you could make it turn one way or the other. It would always turn 180 degrees then stop until the car was moved again.
Happy to still be watching my man Jay, what a great run as the host of the Tonight Show.
thanks for being the best talk show host of our generation
1:07 Jays face when hes told he needs to pull out. hahaha!
I will miss the tonight show with you Jay!
There's one of these but from the 50s sitting in an old building here where I live. The building was a car dealership in the 50s and upstairs was too small to turn the cars around so on the drive up as soon as you hit flat ground there's a turntable, it's manual though you have to push your cargo turn around. There was one on the 1st floor but the demoed it because they couldn't stop it from turning and it's now an office. I would have left it and had tuning offices lol
your a class act jay I started watching your tonight show back in 1998 when I was 8 years old and ever since then I turn to nbc to watch your show before I go to bed and now me along with so many of your fans will not get to see your show or your jokes and of course your great personality thanks for the memories jay
"When you really need to be able to pull out" - Jay then glances at the camera! lol.
NBC should give Jay his own car show. He knows so many people, has so many connection, that it would never be able to cover everything.
Didn't get to watch the show tonight only got clips afterwards but I'm sure you made Mr. Carson proud. You will be missed but look forward to seeing you on stage.
That's pretty sweet. Also the Crankshaft's and Camshaft's railing for your steps is pretty cool :) Good way to recycle the billions of old parts you would have laying around hahaha...... Time to do a Car Show, with Jerry Seinfeld and Tim Allen.... You have enough cars to do at least 10 seasons, start with the Mclaren F1 :) :) :)
I will miss the excellent late night entertainment. Will stay tuned here for sure. Enjoy the next phase.
This may not be the place to say this, but Thanks for all the years of late night entertainment. I'm Korean btw and not all of us hate you lol.
Wow, those garage doors! Oh, and the Shelby was nice, too!
I hope you and the guys at your shop can keep going with building projects and showing us even more.
It does take up some room but it's a great center piece for sure. Thanks Jay.
You will always be the funniest host on the Tonight show period !! Even funnier than Carson. My dream was to be on your someday. I am bummed thats not gonna happen . I am so glad you still have an outlet and now I can enjoy your wonderful sense of humor and my favorite all time hobby CARS!! Best of luck and god bless
Reminds me a bit like Craig Jackson's garage. Useful idea.
Maybe next time mention install time for the unit? Just a thought. I can see where this might be a useful idea to a few Man-Cave-Garage-Condos that I know of.
Good question...average install time for 2 workers (assuming the floor is reasonably level) is about 90 minutes...my crews can do it in less than an hour.
There was a manual version of the turntable at a small town post office (Bradford on Avon Somerset) but postman are too lazy to get out and push. So you went on to the turntable at the right speed and slightly off to one side, then you stamped on the brakes and off you went. The trick was getting the right speed so you stopped in the right direction with no manual adjustment needed...
Looking forward to Jay's video's on his new McLaren P1
Added bonus of seeing a Shelby GT350 in this video (one of my favorite cars). It deserves a turntable all of it's own!
Hey Jay you always have a home here back in New England you will always be number one.
That is a NICE garage Jay! Obviously I love the car. And Jay, your fans will always be with you and we can't wait to see what you do on your next life project. Hoping that is something with cars :D
JUST LIKE THE BAT CAVE ! Way to go Jay
i don't understand the purpose of having a turntable in your garage?
what's the problem with backing in and backing out?
im so sad to see jays last show at least ill still be able to watch him on here :)
oh and jay ruled he should still be on the air.
nice to see jays actual garage, slick machine!
Jay, now that you're out of a job. You can devote more time to your love about cars. I hope you enjoy it to its fullest. These videos are not only entertaining. They also bring more people into the fold of car people. Plus, people are being educated while enjoying your videos. I must say I am not big fan of talk shows. The only time I have the TV on this for sports, news or an occasional race. Like the 24 hours of Daytona. I have become a fan of endurance racing. Thanks for bringing all these incredible cars to us.
A little extravagant? It's okay! You're Jay Leno for crying out loud! :) you're a car Guy like me! The classics and muscle cars are my thing & I love that you have awesome cars! I aspire to have things like this one day.
Would have been more intelligent to have placed the turntable outside in front of the garage doors. Doing that would have allowed the other car bays to have remained useful.
*****
True but when you have a warehouse/museum on the other side of town you can
afford to loose a couple of bays.
If I remember correctly, the Miata was also designed to be a "poor man's sports car." But the car was so good, the market price was a lot higher than their original price point, and Mazda made a ton of money. I think that was the case with the original Dodge Viper, also- was supposed to be a Corvette Killer- faster and cheaper than a 'vette, but again the car was so awesome it was instantly worth more.
Like the cranks in the handrail!
I was in an fancy old home in Buffalo NY that had an original turntable built flush into the garage floor, not much new under the sun!
My uncle built a turn table for his motorcycle 40 years ago using a wooden cable spool. It was installed in his shed so he could spin his Gold Wing.
Jay, now that your finished with the Tonight show you need to take over TopGear USA.
I get it that he put it in cause he can obviously but I like backing a car into a garage. Especially if you have some of the muscle cars Leno has, the sound of the exhaust from one it goes from outside to being backed in sounds great to me.
So you did all that for one car to fit in your garage well done
My only thought is that this turns a 3 spot garage into a 1 spot garage.
"This driveway is not particularly big"... What!? Our driveway is only a third of that, as is our garage, and it can still fit the same amount of cars. I know it's a problem to turn a Duesenberg around but that is not what I would call a common problem for most of us XD
very nice.... will miss watch you every night Jay
Love that Shelby GT 350....that is my dream car. You the man Jay!
I just realized that motorcycle turn table would solve all my problems...
