Gringo

Gringo

I agree....love the Plissken jacket....Westeds new Capt. America jacket is calling me too...

Gringo

Gringo

TOO COOL!

and saving thousands I have spent

Gringo

Good for you Author, seems like a good find. Cheers
(But as Clint once said, "I think I will stick with my .45")

Gringo

That looks great on you KT. It is nice to see the coat in a different light. I just cant seem to decide on the leather I want.

Gringo

I own both hides and I like them both. My Fav is the Nova though. It just feels better if that makes any sense....

Gringo

I have made the choice to order one more Indy jacket in my proper size(??) in the pre-dis leather,Wested LC style....but, this Magneto jacket is calling me. I have not seen the movie, but from the trailer it looks like Wested built it, to me. I already have the Doctor/U-boat jacket in pre-dis, but I...

Gringo

They may let him in the door

, just not the dawg!

Gringo

Commonbub rejected twice? Seems like you may have to walk into "The Barn" yourself and pick one up in person

Gringo

I have never owned an Expo, but I have the A-2 and M-442A flight jackets from them and the quality is top shelf. Same to be said of my Magnoli X-men jacket, quality the same! Now it is just a flip of the coin or the wallet! Good luck

Gringo

Hey P, I have the Doctor Who in the same leather from the photo and it is a size XXL. Fits great(since your Mag X-O fits me). These two jackets are very close aside for some X-men mods. the car coat length has become my fav. I hope you can order one. Take care P.S. If you want measurements of the XX...

Gringo

Been wait'in for ya to chime in Eastwood!

Buy her another rock, not a "Stinken Jacket!"

P.S. Hey Dawg, I hate Tech PRks. but you were thinking Morricone score music more than Sergio movie

I quess?

Gringo

I LOVE IT!! A little Josey Wales is a great touch!

Gringo

I have the End scene of Once Upon a time in the West in my head even though I like the Eastwoods better... Tex you are right, we lost SL to soon.....I have to say it"I think there is go'in to be a gun fight!"

Gringo

Talk about being called out on the porch!!!

(or the Main st. if you were in Deadwood with Wild Bill!)

Give me a sec to make a cocktail and put my feet up.....Okay, ready!

Gringo

Sounds great!! Give me a heads up because of my living on an Island issue, but I grew up in Boston, Have the right accent still like Damons and Affleck(Quack)! I will have the bar stool pushed out and waiting my friend....God I miss Beantown! P.S. I forget to mention, STANLEY CUP TOWN right now! I h...

Gringo

You drink Rye Dawg?? I have not heard that since Bogart in "The Big Sleep". Cheers to you and your Saturday night!!! $\:D/$

Gringo

Exit is right on the mark...Mirrors lie to us but photos never do! I would like to wear a nice $2000.00 suit like James Bond, but I will never be his size...so what do I do? Have the tailor make it for me and just enjoy it(while the mirror still lies to me). I like to just call it Indy style now and...

Gringo

Well put Dawg!! We all have been

from time to time...

Gringo

Cheers to you

Gringo

No insults at all Raider7! Welcome aboard. I was just being funny for the old timers, nothing against you AT ALL. You have very good questions and I hope they get answered. Take care and enjoy the hobby

Gringo

I agree..If you want it safe and sound, stay home and hide under the bed....COW takes no prisoners and gives no quarter!

Gringo

to that my Dawg friend!!!

Gringo

Love to see the Jacket Holt! I have a Vanson from 88 and I do agree with you that they are made to a "T". Dawg, your Dad was right(Did i just say that before today?)! I have to agree with "P", is there a new COA now??? Where were these Hero patterns back in the 90's when I ordere...

Gringo

That is why I miss the older days WhipCracker...YOUR FATHER WAS RIGHT! Here endith the lesson....Cheers to you!

Gringo

Gringo

If anyone can coax him into it, it is you!

Good luck my friend. Adios,
Billy

Gringo

hey Bd, It will look black. If you want more brown, go with the authentic. I have it, in sunlight it looks very brown, in dark it looks dark brown. just my 2 cents

Gringo

Zipper style? Chrome or brass? Good luck, It seems you have done your homework

Cheers

Gringo

Thank you Dawg :TOH: Yeah, when I opened the package I was ready to see the very tan pre-dis(was ready with the pecards to darken) leather. Not here. It is awesome. I have worn it for only 24 hours now and the sleeves are wrinkling on there own. Even though it is the same finish of my XO, it does no...

Gringo

Sorry to pipe up again, but I just layed it side by side with My Wested XO. It is the same finish, but very thicker. Maybe that is what is throwing me?

Gringo

No Holt, it is not the flash. I just blew up the photo and it is very different. I only can give evidence when she posts the photos.

Gringo

Great jacket F.C.! :TOH: But my new Wested U-boat coat is pre-dis cow and looks nothing like that! I am wondering if I got Novapelle by mistake(fine by me)?? because that was my first request even though I switched to pre-cow standard. I will get Laura to take photos and get them posted! Cheers, Gri...

Gringo

I have been around for 13 years, you dont think I was going to hear where are the photos/ My girl is coming to visit in a couple days, she knows this stuff.

Gringo

First I have to say, WOW! I have dealt with Wested since 98. This is a work of art! I went with the standard xxl even though I ordered custom(my change). I got the pre-dis cow. Awesome! it is darker than the old lighter stuff. I think Holt said it is Nov with a different coating. The fit is perfect....

Gringo

All I can say is "WOW!"

Cheers to you Mike.

Gringo

You got to luv it! One thing happens in this country and millions have to pay for it??

Gringo

This is not B.S., Aside from waiting for my Dr.Who jacket from Wested, I ordered a Irish cap from Hanna Hats and they have posted on there website of the customs problems. Pain in the rear end but real....

Gringo

Sorry to hear this Mate! Yeah, sounds like the re-attachment did not take to the already weak stich holes(like a stripped screw, once the threads are lost...). Sounds like a new jacket to me. :( Just a thought that came. How about a double or triple stich on the new repair? Not very SA, but might sa...

Gringo

Travis I missed that! It is a good question. Cheers

Thanks Holt for the info(now another jacket! yikes! I also sent the Superman book Saturday personally, ENJOY MATE

EDIT I just put on my glasses(DONT SAY IT!) And now I will truely say Travis has a very good question.

Gringo

Weston I sold my first and I regret it to this day!!! Because I lost weight and the little baby would fit me now

Gringo

Holt, when you say only the old dark stiff goat, is that from many years ago? I thought that was gone. I just ordered a custom Wested jacket and I wish I had known that. Also to all, I am surprised you are surprised of the price increase. I do not think it is unreasonable. A shock from what we have ...

Gringo

Cheers to you Mate! You never forget your first...and mine was a Wested! Looks great on ya! enjoy it and as M as always said, DO NOT LET IT GO!(I just got weak in the knees seeing a Cairo ad from M, never happens). Wear it and wear it!!
Gringo

Gringo

ST looks awesome! better than my nova LC. Kudos. Wested can deliver a thing of beauty when they want too!!!

P.S. Holt, thought I sent the Superman book months ago, just found it in my old briefcase(YIKES!) I am in trouble, I will shoot it out tomorrow Mate!
