Jay Leno showcases rare 1954 Dodge Coronet

Jay Leno has showcased a rare 1954 Dodge Coronet from his personal collection. The vehicle features a 241 ‘Red Ram’ Dodge Hemi V8 engine and is notable for its lack of modern safety equipment, such as airbags or door guards, which Leno notes contributes to its power-to-weight ratio.

The car is finished in turquoise with teal interior seating. While Dodge produced approximately 9,489 units of this model during the 1950s, Leno describes the vehicle as an exceptionally rare find due to the number of such cars lost or destroyed over the last seven decades.
