Steve, well at least you can use the mirror on top my head to adjust your hair piece and make sure your teeth are fitting correctly [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]. My wife did say you were kinda cute for an old guy though! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

LV...I'm kinda thinking my short white a#@ will swim in a large thats on the big side...damn I hate buying clothes.

Well Bob...try the large, then if you regret that size drop me a note and we'll work a swap for Medium if you want. Otherwise, I'll change it now and get a Medium coming. [Just don't tell everybody that I offerd an exchange so I don't get a bunch of that goin' later....ssshhhhhh.] Whatever you prefer is good-to-go for me. These jackets will come with a memo that warrants they are ONLY the 2nd run [ever] of the original run of 5 jackets in the late 80's.

[Probably oughta buy one of each, then send the misfit to a fellow member that regrets not ordering after it's too late. Just my free suggestion.] I guarantee the first time an enthusiast sees you wearing it, he'll beg you for your spare. I put mine on the seat of my car at a show and had to finally put it away for all the attention it got.

I didn't have my John Travolta disco shoes on when you saw me...Hey LV...if Frank gets one you may have to go to Tents-R-Us to get his made...

I ordered 31 new commemorative "sYc-Yenko" leather jackets in various sizes a few weeks ago. Including the 5 "original" sYc jackets that were made nearly 20 years ago, this new run of 31 jackets will obviously account for 36 TOTAL on the planet. Accordingly, the collectibility should remain high, when compared to the number of sYc enthusiasts.

When I placed the order, some 6 weeks ago, I had to guess at the assortment of sizes. So far, we have been able to accommodate every size request for the 27 folks that have ordered a jacket. At the moment, we have only 4 jackets that are not spoken for: 2@"L" and 2@"XL". I won't put them on eBay because that would tend to make it appear as a commercial effort to replicate these special collectibles for profit. That is simply NOT THE SPIRIT of why we ordered a limited "second run". The remaining 4 jackets will be sold on a first come, first served basis...but will only be available thru the sYc.

I shipped several jackets last Thursday via FedEx-GROUND, and I'll be sending out a few more today [for those that have given me their shipping address]. FedEx GROUND estimates 5-7 days for delivery, so some of you should expect to receive your jacket today/tomorrow.

Thanks and enjoy!

Steve,

I just received my jacket today FedEx ! ! ! ! It is TOTALLY AWESOME ! ! ! ! ! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I hated to part with the $695.00 for a jacket but I am really glad I did. Who knows what they might be worth on down the road with such a limited number being produced ! ! ! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]

They are very well constructed and the stitching is superb ! ! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Thanks again for hooking me up with one of these ! ! ! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/worship.gif[/img] And a big thank you to Donna for packaging it up so well so it wouldn't get damaged in shipping ! ! ! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/worship.gif[/img]

I'm truly surprised you have any left yet to sell ! ! ! I'll bet you don't have these four remaining jackets very long though ! ! !

Got mine today as well... In addition to the stunning appearance, quality workmanship, and supple leather, another thing i can attest to is that these are EXACTLY like the first 5 that were made back in the 80's, as I was one of the lucky few people to get one of those when they were released... I remember waiting almost a year from the time i ordered it until the time it arrived. (LV's turnaround time was much better!) The ONLY difference between these new ones and the original 5 is a super-cool embossed leather patch on the inside on the jacket stating that it is specially made for the Yenko Sportscar Club. A very nice finishing touch! Truly an awesome jacket Steve, you should be commended on your efforts to put this deal together for us! Thanks!!!
