Hmmm. I recognize that wheel, timing advance,headlight switch and instrument panel. 1930 model A by chance?When it's above 20C, nobody in this country wears leather... but if you drive an open car

It's a full custom design / pattern. I used various design features from vintage and repro aviator jackets and combined them into one design. The ball and chain chest zipper is a 30s original, as are the corozo buttons (I hand dyed them to match the color of the jacket).

As a Baltimore Ravens fan, I heartily concur! LOLOLOLClearly that jersey can be ID'd as trash and your doing the right thing using it as a rug protector
The Ford plate on the dash might be a giveaway.Hmmm. I recognize that wheel, timing advance,headlight switch and instrument panel. 1930 model A by chance?
That doesn’t mean it’s a model AThe Ford plate on the dash might be a giveaway.
That line of traffic doesn't look inviting to double-clutching.
The give away is what I previously described. With number of fords I’ve restored, I don’t need a fuckin plate to tell me what it isThat doesn’t mean it’s a model A

My old neighborhood
9th and Wharton St.
In South Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
For our international brothers
Pats Steaks is the original home of what’s known as the “ Philadelphia Cheese Steak Sandwich “. If you’ve ever had one ( pictured above ) in your home country , well this place is where it all started back around 1930.View attachment 82741

No offense to any members, but Pat's and Geno's are both terrible. Joe's Steaks in Torresdale (which used to have a racist name) is much better. And you don't have to eat on the street. Or Steve's Prince of Steaks on Bustleton. Pat's and Geno's are just for tourists these days.Last I heard is Paul here is still trying to nail the bread "like back home" ;-)
You and him had that hilarious conversation about Pats and Genos via me on Whatsapp!
It's a perfect fit for a MC jacket..... and they are pretty damned comfy sitting down in for any length of timeLanglitz goat Columbia

It may looks short in the front, but the length is perfect when sitting down.

Also had the Service Shoes out...
No, but it's a decent lead.That doesn’t mean it’s a model A
Buddy, reign it in. Having a bad day? It's just a discussion on an internet forum, no need to get fuckin bent outta shape. You must be very proud of your expertise.The give away is what I previously described. With number of fords I’ve restored, I don’t need a fuckin plate to tell me what it is
Having a great day. But snarky little comments like that seem to be frequent on this forum and that’s the reason I’ve abstained from it for a while. Think I’ll return to that state. Over and out.Buddy, reign it in. Having a bad day? It's just a discussion on an internet forum, no need to get fuckin bent outta shape. You must be very proud of your expertise.

Sorry, but you really misinterpreted my observing the dash plate as snarky (so much so, that I guess you had to reply twice -- dropping the F bomb for emphasis). It wasn't.

Harder to interpret a comment in type then in person I guess. Forget about it.Sorry, but you really misinterpreted my observing the dash plate as snarky (so much so, that I guess you had to reply twice -- dropping the F bomb for emphasis). It wasn't. End of discussion.
