From Jay Leno’s Garage.
Jay Leno welcomes the "IROC of Comedy," Gabriel Iglesias, back to the garage to show off an absolute time capsule: a 100% original 1989 Chevrolet Camaro IROC-Z with only 400 miles on the odometer!
Gabriel found this "deleted" model—so named because it lacks the typical IROC door decals—on Bring a Trailer. Originally sold in Ohio and kept in a climate-controlled collection for decades, this clay-colored beauty still looks and smells like it just rolled off the showroom floor.
In this episode, Jay and Gabriel discuss:
The Time Capsule: Why this specific car stayed in a dealership and private collection for 36 years without being driven.
Technical Specs: The 5.7L 350 V8 engine and why the window sticker mistakenly says "manual" when the car is an automatic.
The "Deleted" Look: Why Gabriel prefers the cleaner look without the massive IROC-Z side stickers.
Preservation vs. Driving: Gabriel’s philosophy on why he refuses to let a low-mileage car just sit in a garage.
Comedy Legends: The duo talks shop about the road, life as a comedian, and why Jay used to overhear his parents worrying about his future.
Watch as Jay and Fluffy "break the seal" on this 215-horsepower icon and take it for a spin through the streets of California!
