Was just watching the newest Jay Leno's Garage show (Thursday 2/8/18 on CNBC), and as part of the segment showing filming of car racing and car chase scenes, they flashed on a five- or so second piece of "how it was done in the old days". That showed a sliding-roof Wagonnaire as the camera car (with roof panel open) while a Lark convertible passed it on the left. Nothing spectacular, for sure, but still neat to see.

Thanks. I was going to post this after the show was over. There was a cameraman and camera in the rear of the Wagonaire filming a 1964 Daytona convertible while they were both moving. This was a part of a segment on filming cars in motion. They mentioned filming from a pickup truck with no mention of the advantage of a Wagonaire.
I believe that this was the last new Leno's Garage show of the season. New shows will resume in March.Gary L.

I like the fact that Leno and Seinfeld both have shows around cars. I am sure that makes it all deductable.
