This isn't a sports car, this is a piece of art.
It looks like a manta in road form.
Did Jay just grind a gear..oh my..lol
Just like Jay Leno ;-)
To think the same company that designed this thing now makes iPace, the most bland looking car money can buy.
MASTERPIECE
Grace, space and pace.
Space not guaranteed 😂
Space is faked by NASA psuedo science atheists CGI cartoons
@@caw25shalol.
I mean there will be space, but whether it's adequate/ideal is up to the beholder
well, remember their cars were mostly large luxury models. So plenty of space
Ashkenazi AI YIDTUBE deleted my comment ..go figure 🤔
Nice call out for Allen Millyard. So quiet and modest, yet the most incredible engineer. The things he makes in his garden shed are amazing.
The man is a true genius Hel I bet he could build a better version of the Concorde
Correct
Jay needs to get Allen Millyard as a guest & bring with him some of his bikes - or perhaps even better, do a road trip and visit Allen in the UK! Either would be amazing!
Anyone on Jay's staff, please get in touch with Allen Millyard & do a collab!
That DEFINATELY needs to happen because everyone would love it.
“They’re adjustable, as long as you want them in exactly that position” 😂
Its unbelievable beautyful, more than XK SS
Yeah picked that up as well😂
I can't believe Jay didn't throw him out of the garage after that little line
In other words, you're adjustable lol
Just like a GT40. Move the pedals.
Wow….just, wow. Thank you sir, not only for commissioning this, but then sharing it with us.
My EXACT response and was about to post till I saw you already had. Wow! A true peice of automotive artwork. Really Wow! I'de be afraid to drive it here in Central Florida with all the old/bad/tourist drivers here. Who wouldn't want one though. Park it in the living room! As Always, May God Bless you and yours! 😇
Where do you put the magnetic camera mount on an aluminum car?
@@brucemcclary3260 You don't. You use suction cup mounts of course.
@@brucemcclary3260 guess they were suction cups!
Excellent way to describe.
The slogan for Jaguar is "Grace, Space, Pace". Always pleasure to see these historical art pieces!
Grace, Space, Breakdown
This one looked a little low on space.
Ha, the absolute reality makes the real history @@basshead.
Sorry I didn't see your comment.
Attributed to Sir William Lyons.
The smile on the owners face during the drive was priceless, great job as usual Jay, please continue...
British petrol-head here. So impressed with the love behind this project. And the video is made in the same manner. My soul aches to see this car, thank you to everyone involved. Amazing dedication.
2 Things Jay. In the 70's I worked at the Foundry that cast the V12 engine blocks & heads. It was amazing to see. This was in Yorkshire called West yorkshire foundry. Long gone now. 2nd You need to get Alan Millyard over to your shop for a talk, he has an amazing ability. Great video & thanks for sharing . From the UK.
Steve.
Or even better, get over to pay Allen Millyard a visit and see all his amazing creations.
Yes @@kasperkjrsgaard1447
@@kasperkjrsgaard1447. I think it would blow a lot of people's minds how Allen can create his masterpieces, considering the size of his workshop...and garden shed, and the fact that he does so much of the work with the simplest of hand tools.
@@curmudgeon1933 not to forget a few cup cakes and a cuppa
I believe that up until they shut down the foundry had kept all the wooden patterns going way back. It appears all the patterns were discarded when it shut down.
Interestingly, although there were only six engines made, there were a number of variations, one was cast iron, at least one was open deck (like the production V12), others closed deck, etc. I can't remember the variants now. One was used to trial a 60 degree V8 concept! I do not know whether these prototype castings would have been cast at the same foundry as the production castings.
The guy who runs Building the Legend, bought one of the original six engines, complete sans fuel injection off German eBay. I believe it had been used as dressing on a Jaguar display stand or some such thing.
This build is what I picture myself doing if I was a multimillionaire. So much better, in my opinion, than just buying another Bugatti, Ferrari, Lamborghini, ect. Thank this gentlemen for his passion, vision and apparently deep pockets! As Always, May God Bless you and yours! 😇
This is the true original shaguar.
If I was a multimillionaire, I would be on Epstein's Island
@@virtualpilgrim8645 I wouldn't ever admit to that.
@@mountainjeff
... not even in jest
You see; everyone thinks that the e-type is Jaguar's most beautiful car because they've never heard of an XJ13. This was Jaguar at their absolute best. It looks wonderful in polished alloy. The way the light just hits that thing is amazing...
the xke is better looking then this, this looks good but its a little over the top
C-Type’s the best looking for my three million bucks.
The owner knows about his car which shows a true enthusiast who understands what it took to build the car. It would have to be one of the most beautiful cars ever built. True genius
Until you ask him how much oil it holds.
@@deeremeyer1749 As the founder of Schilling Robotics he knows his technical stuff
A true purist, and a man who knows exactly what he wants. And is willing to do the work to get it. Stunning craftsmanship and fidelity to the original.
After 6 years it outta be as cool as it actually is. Wow.
21:10. Good to hear Jay giving Allan Millyard a shoutout. It would be great to see Allan and Jay geeking out over one of his creations...preferably his Velocette V-Twin or The Flying Millyard.
That’s a great idea
@@AllenMillyardIt could be fantastic if Jay Leno could come to visit you and drool over your amazing motorcycles. 🤤
I can imagine him go crazy over seing both the Flying Millyard and the V10 bike. It could make some great conversation. 😃👌
Hi Jay hope you are reading this. I vote for the V8 KZ!
Full circle. In 1991 I saw the original XJ 13 at Pebble Beach, and was also blessed to meet and speak with Jay himself. His casual and approachable demeanor and generous nature interacting with other enthusiasts made a big impression on me. As I drove back to Seattle in my Jaguar XK 120 Fixed Head Coupe I laughed realizing that Jay owned the same car. Thanks Jay for all you have done sharing your love and extensive knowledge of these remarkable machines. Your life has made a huge contribution to our society.
Wow, what spectacular master craftsmanship demonstrated here. Lost for words really. Absolutely brilliant 💓💓💓
Thank you Linda! We loved building it 😊
@@BuildingTheLegend I don't know how you got into building cars like this, but it was definitely your calling.
the covid era show was fun but a car like this deserves the camera work that the crew does. The shape of the cars body is just incredible.
Yeah it reminds me of a feline of some sort.
I'm with you 💯. A thing of beauty. A work of art. 🎨 Stunning
@@mansashaka...a Jaguar?
Beautiful car, I can't imagine what it cost him to have it built... pretty sure it was well over a million USD.
Have a good friend who just recently sold his car restoration business after 38 years (he is 86 and still works there) Called Sleeping Beauties . And from what he says a million wouldn't touch the sides in a project like that @@scottmcelhiney323
Glad to hear Jay talk about Allen Millyard, he is amazing and my favorite builder
“Grace, space, and pace” is a famous slogan that has been associated with the British car manufacturer Jaguar for many years 123. The slogan was coined by Sir William Lyons, the founder of Jaguar, who believed that every car produced by the company should embody these three qualities
Thank you sir. 😊
The fabrication of this car is absolutely breathtaking! The work that goes into hand building a car in raw aluminum is absolutely insane! Absolutely no bondo to hide any wrinkles or scratches.
You won’t find it in a Walmart parking lot that’s for sure
Thanks J for loving the stuff we do in the UK, we're not all as clever as Alan milliard with his motor bikes but yes we do hang on to stuff. Great episode.
Allen Millyard
Probably the nicest build and car I've ever seen. Just gorgeous
Awesome conversation between two purists. I will never ever tire of listening to Jay talk cars.
What a wonderfully humble chap. Huge credit to you sir for getting this on the road. And once gain Jay, thank you for giving us this (and your usual credit to British engineering! Wish we did back home!)
Truly a piece of art. It just happens to be a car as well. Absolutely stunning, with perfect execution. Thanks, Mr. Shilling for sharing your rolling sculpture with us, and thanks to Jay and the crew for showcasing it so brilliantly. Cheers to all involved!✌️❤️🙂🇨🇦
Just the most beautiful Jag ever!
Wow!!!
Grace, space and pace. Jaguar’s advertising moniker from the ‘60s used with reference to their saloon cars, Mk 10, S Type and later, the original XJ6.
Magnificent build! That body is truly one of the most beautiful ever put on four wheels.
looks really horrible in aluminium
@@joeconnolly89 As they say, "There's no accounting for taste"
@joeconnolly89 not to mention the dimensions are off
@@th3b0untyhunter no they aren't. This is the car as it was originally. The original got destroyed in a crash and was rebuilt in a very different form.
@richardharrold9736 the arches were different and so was the stance after the rebuild.
But to my eyes this car looks ever so slightly wrong EVERYWHERE compared to both pre and post rebuild.
First time I saw this car was in the Gran Turismo (5 I think) game many years ago. Fell in love with it. Prefered it in the British Racing Green. As much as the rivetting detail is spectacular the green hid them well & made the car look even sleeker which I preferred. Either way, I'm a little jealous but happy that this guy had the wherewithal & passion to get his dream car built & show it.
Yep, the Chrome Color is too much... This car must be in the original British Racing Green! One of the most sexy Racecars that never raced. The lines must have come from a imagined woman...🥰
Jaguar suspension was fantastic. I remember stripping and building it on an XJ6 roller bearings instead of rubber bushes, inboard discs less unstrung weight, drive shaft used as one of the wishbones less weight again, trailing links to keep in in line. All in a compact frame with Differential brakes and twin coil springs each side, all isolated from the car by rubber bushes it did float along.
I think thats the most beautiful vehicle I have ever seen, a credit to the builder.. damn does that engine sing!
Thank you!
Watching Jay, he is in total ecstasy with this beauty.
I admire Jay, my main reason is he loves England, our unmatched history and our great engineering past. Thanks Jay and bless you for making this Englishman very, very proud.
Me too! You really do know and appreciate the English Sir.
That beast purring without a muffler or cat. Amazing. What a beautiful machine.
Congratulations to the owner - an astonishing car!
So sorry to hear of your wife’s condition, I cared for my Mother until she passed. God bless
That is a very beautiful work of art.
And it clearly shows it’s related to the E-Type.
Grace, pace and space. Fantastic car!
What a stunning car! The workmanship looks out of this world.
My father worked for an engineering company in Markyate, North Hertfordshire in the UK from about the mid 50s until he retired around 1990, and told me of some of the more interesting jobs he had worked on. One of them being machining the prototype blocks and heads for the Jaguar V12 when it was still a 4 cam unit. He also machined the block and head of the engine Stirling Moss used in his last race when he crashed at Goodwood.
Hi - machining was done by Coventry Climax (later taken over by Jaguar). Did your father work there?
@@BuildingTheLegend
No, he didn't. I believe the company was called Jig Borers Ltd, possibly Jig Borers (Markyate) Ltd? Perhaps Coventry Climax sub-contracted the work to them? I know they had a very large (and expensive) Societe Genevoise jig borer that my father worked on.
@@BuildingTheLegend The proto-test one was made by? The production was maybe made be others!! There are companies that are only doing prototypes things, did work at one some long time ago and still miss it.
I met Norman Dewis (the Jaguar test driver who was driving the XJ13 when it crashed) at a Jaguar Club meeting in Auckland, New Zealand about 20 years ago. Absolutely lovely guy and a true legend. I've still got the commemorative bottle of wine that the club got made for the occasion, signed by Norman himself. Of course, the wine doesn't exist any more. There's a great guy down in the South Island of NZ who built at least 1 XJ13 replica. It was a pretty faithful replica as far as I can remember, all hand built using wooden bucks etc. He also made superb C-Type replicas.
I am speechless. What a beautiful beast of an automobile. Just astounding what Jaguar accomplished in the mid '60s and what Legendary has accomplished today.
You mean like NOT producing this car?
This car eluded me for all these years! I had never heard about the XJ13. What an amazingly beautiful car this is! Such a shame that it never raced.
The fate of many beautiful cars and aircrafts... They were only built as prototypes...
This Jaguar and the modern C-X75 both are on my list of most sexy cars that never went into production / on a race...
I had the great fortune to be standing in the Jag Heritage shop in 2016 when Neville Swales took delivery of one of four 4-cam v-12 blocks known to exist. This is the real deal, folks. There will never be another like it. Building the legend, indeed.
Neville now builds his own version of the quad cam V12, known as the TERA.
Bryan Wingfield built the best recreation in the mid 80's
It used an original engine, and looked perfect too
Wow I think this is my favorite of all cars Jay has ever shown
Allen Millard's 12 cylinder motorcycle masterpiece is Kawasaki based and has off the scale engineering as seen on the British TV show 'Shed and Buried'.
He is a genius who creates a lot of his stuff from his garden shed!
Jaguar's advertising slogan was 'Grace, Space, Pace'.
Wow! What a beautiful work of art! Thank you sir for sharing this with Jay, and in turn with us!
Mister Leno thank you for all the beautiful cars and bikes and for the history behind. History belongs to those who write it down, I will remember 😏
Man, I saw the original once on display, and never forgot it. This is an amazing incredible replica. Of a glorious piece of sculpture.
12:20 Jay's so apologetic for being a wise man on cars that he says "the Smith gauges... are those Smith gaujes? I just recognized the lettering." such a polite, relaxed guy.
Love Jay Leno’s Garage, and Jay’s knowledge and enthusiasm ❤
I live 5 mins away from the workshop in Coventry 🇬🇧. They make some amazing stuff. See a few on trailers. Classic E types too, etc
Then why not drop by the workshop Thomas? Enthusiasts always welcome 😊
@@BuildingTheLegend because i don't know who to ask! And i bet they're too busy
@@thomaswright7562 BTL above is the boss man himself, he's just given you an invitation. His name is Neville Swales and he's a lovely bloke.
@@thomaswright7562I think that you just had an invitation from the man himself🙂
@@BuildingTheLegend hey? Are you serious? I would love to come down! Literally 5 minutes from your place!
"So it was lucas fuel injection!?" - (mutters under breath) "That'll be another reason it didn't race....." cracked me up!
When I was 16 years old and hitchhiking to my high school, I used to keep my thumb in until I saw that white jaguar XKE coming with a 12 cylinder engine. I think he enjoyed how thrilled I was and we had a big hill to climb up.
What a great car. The shape and the way the motor is just a jewel.
I love how J Leno makes it all about the car.
JAY JUST SEEMS LIKE A GREAT GUY...JUST MAKES THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE
Finally a video on this… I wish we could’ve seen more of it. In British racing green it’s one of the best looking race cars of all time
Jay couldn't have possibly said it better when he said that this car is just absolutely beautiful. Racecars nowadays look good, but they aren't nearly as handcrafted as they were back when this car was new. The team who built this car and made it what it is today are EXTREMELY talented artists, because that's what this car is, a work of art, and a passion of love.
ABSOLUTELY STUNNING....
So great that Jay showcased this incredible car. 99% of us would never have been able to see it otherwise. ❤❤❤❤
I consider the Jaguar XJ13 to be the most beautiful car ever made and the sound quality is matched equally.
The XJ13 is a masterpiece combination of power and styling.
Lost for words, but like the other viewers I cannot allow this magnificent car to pass me by without saying thank you for sharing it with us.
“Ready to go 180!?”… Haha Jay puts the fear on ya right quick at the wheel. 😂👍🏼
At the 16:30 mark. The place where Captain Bligh got his suit made is still in business. English tailor says, Right here, he signed the book right here. They do keep everything!!!
That is the most beautiful car I have ever seen. This is why I watch JLG.
Automotive perfection. The Art of Performance! Well done, Tyler. Well done!!
That thing is stunning, absolutely beautiful! Thank you both for sharing this with us!
Yes WOW JUST WOW!!!!!
There are beautiful cars out there but for me this is ABSOLUTELY THE MOST BEAUTIFUL ONE I HAVE EVER SEEN. Thanks for sharing this with us. Just AMAZING!!!!
Just to let you know Jay, I'm praying for you and Mavis.
In my family, it was my mom's father.
I did my best to listen to his stories, even the tenth time, with interest.
Some day, I might do the same thing.
God Bless.
It seemed like Jay was almost hesitant to do the "test drive" on this one! Looks and sounds incredible going down the road! ❤
Speaking about Allen Millyard makes me go to the kitchen a get some cake!
level of craftmanship on this is insane.
Grace Space and Pace. My brother has an XJ-13 replica. Not to this level, but still awesome. Full aluminum chassis, 6 piston front calipers - with provisions for a 2nd caliper at each wheel. 450HP isn't a lot today, but in a 1700 lb car (with fluids) -its truly next level power. Big issue is getting tires for 15" wheels that can handle that power to weight. And fitting big brakes. Thus, he runs 18's on the track, the 15's are strictly for show.
Jay - you do a great great job on these videos! Truly appreciated
Just WOW. stunning. Beautiful. Jaguar. Grace, space and pace...
Space? Here? Really?
@@grievuspwn4g3 yep
It's the most beautiful automobile I've ever seen. I love the XKE, but this is beyond compare. Thank you for sharing this with us...
Absolutely stunning and inspiring. My Dad used to work at Jaguar so I have a special affection for the masters in Coventry.
Very impressive!! One of the coolest cars I’ve ever seen
Absolutely wonderful car! Congratulations to the owner, the builder and his crew.
Another 5-star video from Jay. Stunning machine.
Sooooo beautiful. Kudos for having this piece of art commissioned.
Spectacular vid & vehicle.
Thanks to both of you.
Nice to hear Jay mention the genius , Allen Millyard, wishful thinking but I'd adore to see a commission from Jay made by Allen
Bring him over please!!!
Was thinking the same thing.
Wowza,That Car is Awesome tbh!😎👍 you can’t get much shinier than that either!🙀🖤⭐️🕊🦋🕊 thanks for sharing guys!🙏🥳✌️🌅🇺🇸
Unbelievable Mr Leno and thankyou to this gentleman for sharing his car with us! I think Jay is a walking talking encyclopedian historian! This should be required watching for all high school students to give them appreciation for history, mechanics, science, and Jay does it so well! Beautiful job Mr Leno!!
I'm not even a car guy but this is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.
This is something I would expect in Jay's collection. Very beautiful car.
That view of the engine! Just perfect
Thank you Jay… I can speak for many of us Miata drivers.. most of us don’t have 400 horse at our disposal. I really enjoyed this walk you took us on. Pure pleasure.
What a great show. 2 gentleman exploring the finery of a masterpiece.
Absolutely stunning!
A faithful resurrection of a beloved classic by Jaguar. Thank you for posting, Jay.
True piece of art. Incredible
Awesome Indeed!!! Incredible metalfinishing... as an apprentice 40 + yrs ago frank's shop was lined with many classics being restored in this fashion ... wow thanks jay , you don't see this anymore in san francisco
Thank you for the eye candy, and love the sound. Appreciate the History of Jaguar!!
Live long and prosper Jay, and keep on bringing these amazing videos. Where else but here can you see videos like these.
Thank you for continuing to bring important and interesting content to us. Your authentic enthusiasm is refreshing.
Saw the original (rebuild) at the Historics in '92 when Jaguar was the featured marque. Just fell in love with it, took many pictures that I still have. Years later it would be the first expensive model I bought, the AutoArt 1/18th... just love it. Thanks for sharing your version.
The secont most beautiful Le Mans Jag ever made, only behind the amazing D-Type.
Stunningly beautiful. I'm a Jaguar lover and this is really cool. Thank you Mr. Jay. ❤️❤👍😛😎
Wow ! That is just breathtakingly beautiful.. Oh my goodness !!
I really enjoy Jay Leno's curiosity, well informed curiosity at that, his genuine interest, curiosity and love for all things mechanical certainly ensured that we were given a great and close look at this amazing motor car, I thank both men. Very enjoyable.
