Default Johnny's '39 Ford Deluxe

"Heeeeeeeere's Johnny" 's , thanks for the correction, but it was his car, or his parent's car. He learned to drive with it.
He willed it to Jay Leno, according to the picture article.

Thank You for the correction, but it's Johnny's, or his parent's car. According to a statement in the article, he learned to drive w/it, probably the reason for the pic; He willed it to Jay Leno.

Just seeing part of the car, I thought that it was a Ford '39 Deluxe. I apologize.

Many beat me to it, I was going to post "If that is a 39 Ford, I will take out a knife and fork and eat it". Oh, I guess I did post it.
Cool early picture of Johnny.

For some reason, I watched that whole video. Two things stick in my mind. First, I really like the green color of that car. Second, about halfway through, when Jay gets into the car to take a drive, the frivers door handle has the "droop" we so often see on these old cars. It's comforting to see that he has the same problems that we do.
