Jay, 74, looked cool and casual as he drove around Los Angeles in a vintage vehicle.

The car was painted bright white and blue gray with black and white tires.

He wore a denim shirt and glasses as he sailed with a serious expression on his face.

The former Jay Leno Show host’s white hair was slicked back in a casual style.

Jay’s Stanley Roadster is just one of many valuable cars in his collection.

The 1912 vehicle is valued at around $100,000.

His collection is stored in a 140,000 square foot garage and includes more than 180 cars.

CASUAL CRUISE

In April, Jay was spotted taking a shady ride around Los Angeles in a vintage Buick with personalized license plates.

The car was decorated with glossy black paintwork and chrome details.

The interior of the car, as well as the tires and a side stripe, were bright red.

Jay was sitting in the driver’s seat of the car, wearing a collared denim shirt.

His white hair blew in the wind and he looked serious and somewhat sad.

He held a cell phone to his ear while driving with the top down.

The sighting came after he was given guardianship by his wife Mavis Leno, 77, following her dementia diagnosis.

COOL COLLECTION

Jay has been an avid car collector for some time, opening up about it in a 2013 interview with CNN.

He explained that collecting cars doesn’t always involve the car itself, although he has some pretty impressive – and very valuable – vehicles.

“You don’t buy the car so much as you buy the story,” he told the outlet at the time.

Jay had a show called Jay Leno’s Garage on CNBC until January 2023 when the show was canceled.

His collection includes a Tata Nano, a Lamborghini Miura, a Ferret Mk 2 Reconnaissance Car, a Ford GT, an Oldsmobile Toronado and a 1938 Tatra T-87, to name a few.

His entire collection is estimated to be worth more than US$50 million.
