Jay Leno's Garage: Lisa and Her BMW 1600 "Derby"
Performance Technic
The classic BMW community is one that is strong, passionate, and almost as close as you can get to family. It is through this community that we often meet some of our best friends. That said, if you've been following our blog over the last year+, you'll recognize both Lisa and her beloved BMWs.
Lisa has been involved with classic BMWs most of her life, and her latest addition--a pristine 1967 BMW 1600--is one that she holds near and dear. Both she and the car have truly interesting stories, which we have taken great joy in sharing with the rest of the world. As far as story sharing goes, there are few more exciting showcases than Jay Leno's Garage. We recently took a trip down to LA with Lisa and both of her cars to visit Jay, and talk about Derby. We were joined by Bill Arnold, an original pillar of the 2002 community, and his family.
Below is the YouTube episode that was filmed on our trip, as well as some behind the scenes photos that we shot along the way. Please enjoy, and feel free to let us know what you think in the comments section.

The experience as a whole was amazing, and we are grateful for the opportunity to meet Jay and his film crew again, and to enjoy these cars together. We'd like to extend a big thank you to everyone involved with this awesome story.
