And it’s an **L I can wear. Yeah it’s got a couple little stains that are pretty small, I had a seamstress fix some missing threading on the stripes and fix the top corners of the pockets that had small rips...but I hardly ever see em in this color..

    That's neat! The color and design of the jacket caught my eye...I got one a long time ago, not Ford, but instead printed up for my local drag strip to give me for getting all those points in the C bracket trophy race, back in 1981.

    This might help you figure out the time yours was made?

    Huh...The tag say Ford right on it? It’s an old jacket, not new. I had to have it repaired due to age and use. I’m not sure what your taking about

    Not sure its used, but in great condition. The seamstress that fixed it up did an amazing job. Wore it to dinner tonight

    I had a white one that that I wore to the 1969, I think, National Drags in Tulsa. Don’t know what happened to it??? Mine didn’t have the wool lining though.
