My dark blue French airforce jacket (with the rounded arm pocket rather than the later rectangular shape one)

And my latest police jacket....a USA made Taylor's Chicago-style police officer jacket....the leather squeaks like crazy but it's fairly comfortable and has a zillion pockets all through it (great as a commute jacket as well as for a cheeky one down the pub)

The Bronco was made in French goatskin in 2010. The new goatskin from Pakistan just like the French stuff. The color is perfect, too.

Don't get me started on Land Rovers, I can bore the hind legs off a donkey chatting about them. Since the '70's I've owned more Land Rover's than you ca shake a stick at. Series, 90 / 110 / 130, Defender, Range Rover, Discovery etc. I co admin a Land Rover forum that has been running since the mid 2000's I think and was a moderator for a Land Rover magazine forum prior to that. I bought my last new Defender in 2014 intending to keep it but it turned into such a headache what with warranty fixes and such that I chopped it in when it was just two years old. Undecided about the new ones so waiting to see what the INEOS Grenadier turns out to be like. Been keeping my eyes open for a nice Series Land Rover but refuse to pay over the odds for one.

I was lucky to find a specimen from California, so rust free. I was more concerned with reliability then keeping it original. Removed as much Lucas as I could. Made up a new wiring harness, front disk brakes and swapped the engine for a 200di diesel. It’s never let me down. I learned to drive on a 63 2a my dad had when I was a kid. It was always broken down. My brother had a disco and dumped it after a year because of all the reliability issues.

Funny that, my Jeep is ex California having spent all it's life there and only crossing the pond in 2013.

Gorgeous! Some poor soul was wearing one at Duxford on Saturday. Just seeing him, made me buy an ice cream and ice cold coke.

That's a rather sweet looking jacket.....reminds me of a jacket my dad had when I was a kid (could be the same if it has trapezoid shaped elbow patches and leather straps at the waist)
