A RWD Toronado... OMFGIDIE. The Toronado was always one of the sexiest cars on the road but the thought of a BB powered FWD car was always kind of a turnoff to me (thank God the Rivi stayed RWD). Now all Leno has to do is apply this formula to the equally beautiful '67 Eldo.
Jay Leno = the man when it comes to cars. He admits that he may not know everything there is to know when it comes to automobiles, but he is a true enthusiast, a true lover of cars who doesn't discriminate because it comes from one side of the world or another. The guy actually drives his toys to work instead of garaging them. Truly awesome.

Damn nice motor and turbo setup in a damn ugly car. But it is a unique and that may be what he was going for.

The December 21st episode of "Rides" featured this car. The show was all about the construction of it. They took two C6 Vettes (courtesy of GM) and parted them out. Both were production mules slated for the crusher (according to Jay).
