1966 Oldsmobile Toronado—Jay Leno Edition
Stock examples of the 1966 Oldsmobile Toronado came with a 7.0-liter V-8 offering 385 hp. But that wasn’t enough for Jay Leno, who gave one such Olds the equivalent of automotive steroids by fitting it with a heavily altered aluminum, twin-turbo 425 cubic-inch V-8 LS6 that produces 1,070 hp.
From the outside, this muscular Oldsmobile looks stock, but it’s actually riding on a revamped C5 Corvette chassis and suspension. And while the original Toronado was front-wheel drive, Leno wisely opted to push all the power to the rear-axle of his modified monster.
