I have yet to see a complete list of all the cars, but you can find some stuff here and there..

He calls his workshop the "Big Dog Garage" so you might have to do some searching under that. I've never seen him driving the same thing twice, so good luck!

nice warm fuzzy article:

His top 10:
R: I know you hate it when people ask you about your top-10 favorite cars, but I'm going to do it anyway. What are your favorites?

JL: Oh boy [laughs]. Let's see, my current favorite is probably the Duesenberg SJ - that's a solid car and is probably one of the best cars of all time. I like the Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic coupe, the McLaren F1, the 1913 Mercer Raceabout, my Stanley Steamer, the Lamborghini Miura, my 1909 Baker Electric (an electric car from nearly 100 years ago, take that GM!), any big, old eight-liter Bentleys, and of course, the 1960's 427 Ford AC Cobra. That thing still amazes me.

Also from the same article[I just HAD to share ]
R: 3,000-mile road trip. Pick the vehicle and your co-pilot - it can be anyone, from any time or era.

JL: I would probably take the McLaren F1, because that's the greatest car there is! It's unbelievable - the top speed is 241 miles per hour and it's extremely comfortable. The thing that people don't know about the F1, is that unlike an Enzo or some other exotic, the McLaren F1 is totally drivable. It's a road car - it was designed to be a road car from the get-go.

I mean, it's smaller than a Corvette, yet I can hold three people in it and still have room for luggage. It weighs less than a Miata, and it has 627 horsepower. You sit in the center and because you sit in the center, there's enough legroom for drivers or passengers that are seven feet and taller.

It's actually one of the only cars that I drive where I find myself moving the seat a little bit forward before I take off. It's so comfortable, and I find it to be the perfect vehicle because people who know what it is see it and tend to go nuts, and people who don't know about it just don't know about it and leave you alone.

It isn't like the Enzo with a big long nose, where as soon as you're seen it in, you're labeled as the middle-aged guy with "that problem" in his life. The car just looks right, and it drives perfectly - everything about it is just right. There's no wing, there's no spoilers, it just does what it's supposed to do. It has normal road clearance, so when you go over a speed bump or come to a driveway, you're not tearing off half of the spoilers.

Clearly the man is in the right frame of mind. [F1 guys quickly give me cover! ]

Another warm/fuzzy article. esp with him and the sales guy

Unfortunately I can't find the ultimate info which is an exact number.

 

He's got a sweet '66 Olds Toronado and '55 Buick Roadmaster. Both are absolutely gorgeous, they look completely stock, the way they did when new. Both are extensively customized, serious performance. The Toronado has 1000 horsepower, been converted to rear drive, Corvette suspension, big GM crate motor with two huge turbos. It was in an episode of Rides on TLC.

The Buick has been upgraded similarly. The interior is custom, but looks almost stock. It doesn't have 1000 hp, but still has huge power, forget the numbers though. Both these cars are monsters, but don't look like it.

Surprised no one's mentioned the Blastolene Special yet. Can't really describe the thing, but trust me, it's a sweet ride. You can probably find it if you Google it.
