    Jackets are!..... hot rod jackets that is....!:)
    Gotta give props to my pals Kevin and Jillian Silva who just finished up my warm new Hot rod jacket!
    I was more than happy.... I was ESTATIC!!!!!

    Just the thing needed for those long cold wintery nights ahead..... until there is snow on the ground..i'll keep driving.....

    i had them get a Candy's Hot Rod Supply jacket done for my pal Neil.... who will post some pics here soon.

    I wanted a old time feel and the Silva's did not fail......Chain stitched and everthing!!!

    Perfect is too small a word.

    Thanks guys!

    ........ Yea,... heaters are traditional.......

    Does it have Yak fur lining? I hear it gets pretty cold up there in the Great White North.

    The Silva's : What can I say the pictures do not do the jacket any justice. The colors used on the jacket stitching give the proper reflections in the chrome rim, excellent shading in tire sidewall and so on. Great work using THREAD, Norwell can barely accomplish this with his elves he has enslaved in his art studio using One Shot.

    Give them a call, you will not be disappointed.

    Look at the above picture posted by Jeff Norwell showing the close up of the stitching on my jacket, it is awsome. Yes, my camera sucks.....

    Jillian and Kevin are great people to deal with, you will not find better.........

    Jeff, That's one neat jacket. Should keep you nice and warm this winter.

    By the way, neat art in the newest Rod and Custom ! Like the way you think. Traditional with a 5 speed . . . . Works for me !
