Found this picture in an old photo album. I am on the road through Germany on my Vespa, the year is 1983.
And wearing my homemade raiders jacket.

You can't leave it at that. Homemade by who? Leather? What kind? How did it get designed? Was it based on memory of a photo?

Cheers

Agreed! You had me at "homemade"!

[Rudolf]

Okidoki! Not homemade!!
an old Swedish leather jacket which I changed after "vhs" stills and sewed again......goatskin by Malung in Sweden

[Satipo]

You must have other pictures, right?

[Rudolf]

Hmm? I guess so , somewhere in negative mode

[Holt]

Hej Rudolf.

velkommen skal du være. kult å ha deg med oss

[Rudolf]

Tackar Holt, det var ett broderligt välkommnande

[Hatch]

Man , this looks like I've stumbled onto the Vikings planning another raid.......

[Zendragon]

Very cool man, although the Fedora is a bit off

"Vulcan skulls do vary. Cults are at the hall digs medicine from the OSS. Yup."

"Tackle this Holt, indeed vary this broadly vulcan commandos"

I agree, this must be code for some planned viking attack at an Indy dig.

very good translation Neutronbomb

I don't speak that language, but I would have thought it meant: "Welcome on the boards. Good to have you with us." to which the reply would be:"Thank you Holt, that was a brotherly welcome."
Good thing you got me the corect translation

Regards, Geert

[Erri]

Do you still have that jacket? I'm curious to see more pictures of it!

[Indywannabe]

Välkommen Rudolf!

Snygg jacka du hade där.
Funderat på att skaffa en Wested t ex?

[Erri]

Allora che facciamo qui? Parliamo tutti la nostra lingua nativa?

[Rudolf]

It was probably just temporary, I hope. back to English all ...

Erri The jacket was left until a year ago, but it was in a bad condition to be saved.
At the same time, I ordered a new one from Wested that I have now.
But I will see if I can find more pictures of the old home-made one.

Indywannabe thanks!
Think you should get a jacket from wested, quite ok jacket for the money + fast delivery..

(or you mean that I would get a wested jacket??) "I have two"

Cheers!

I'm really looking forward to more pics of the jacket.

And I've barely understood anything of this thread! Let's get it on something I can speak. I speak English, some Spanish, and a little profanity.

Are you familiar with any Finnish cuss words?
