Unbelievable Burbank Barn Find: 1963 Jaguar XKE 🤎 - Jay Leno's Garage

In the culmination of a year of work, Jay shows off this unbelievable 1963 Jaguar XKE, rescued from an ultra-cluttered garage in Burbank, CA. Jay details the salvage process of this gorgeous original and mostly unrestored beauty, before taking it for a ride through the canyons. This is truly the perfect car for a two-lane country road!

I had a couple of old Jags back in the day...an XK-150 and a Mark ll, 3.8 Sedan. Always wanted an E-Type so I really enjoyed the video.

A long time ago, it was partly responsible for my choice to drive for a living for a time.

in some kind of car I couldn't identify. It was the car that let me know that yes, that is Jay Leno.

I think this jag is not the only car in his garage?

His collection is estimated to be worth over $100 Million, which is about 1/4 of his net worth!

a friend of mine had one, it was turquoise blue! What a car. That was in my mid twenties, many moons ago.
