Leno on Auto Enthusiasts
Neat article from Leno about some of his random encounters with enthusiasts. Talks about Hemis, Buicks, and Duesenbergs but could have just as easily been talking about any cars.

Pretty good read. I like this:
Then, I noticed none of the cabinets had doors, and they were filled with carburetor parts from old Buicks, all carefully labeled with tags saying what they were. As we moved throughout the house, Buick fenders, wheels, tires and other stuff were all stacked up. So I said to the guy who seemed to be the homeowner, "Single man, are you?" He responded, "Yeah, how'd you know? The wife left eight years ago. Now I can do what I want and collect my Buick stuff." I don't usually get into 50's American cars (love the 50's European cars) but that '55 Roadmaster Leno has got his hand on is beautiful. I'd kill to be able to browse his car collection in person. |
I like anything that rolls, explodes and makes noise. Motorcycles, cars, steam engines, tractors; I love 'em all. Actually I appreciate anyone that has a passion for anything...too many people taking up space walking around slack-jawed and lifeless. |
