very cool selection I like the Road Rockets and Scroungers. They look very period, simple, clean and traditional. I think I dig the Dickies coat best. The long flannel is very killer, but way too hot for SoCal.

 

This is a jacket my parents did for my uncle for his '39 Dodge . . . they have an embroidery business and this was one is from a photo.

 

Here's a few from my closet.

Thanks. That's a big place. Can you narrow it down some?

 

It seems to boil down to either car coats (wool snap button long coats) and Dickies style jackets ( I call them gas station jackets)

What do you guys like best?

Me, I like the wool car coats. I know that So Cal weather is pretty great and wool coats may not be neccesary... but they just look better.

Discuss please.....

 

I'm stuck between wool and dickies...

 

I gave my dads jacket away for this cause.
I hope it helped.
(it went for $600.00 something and the auction was fun,,sat next to Shirley).
