  • Drag Week Jacket

    Has anyone who got theirs and it did not fit? Had it altered with out it looking altered? It is'nt like you can just go back to the store and exchange it. Need to have the sleeves and tail lengthed. Found a shop that does all leather but wonder if others had a good or bad job done. I could shorten my arms and suck my gut in. I know this is a terrible issue to have to deal with but after 10 years I do not want to mess it up after finally getting one.

        I'm confused. Didn't the Hot Rod tailor come to your house for measurements before they sent you the jacket for the final fitting with the Hooter's girls? Maybe they stopped doing that for 2014.

          Good one Bill, has its perks living close to the home office Mother Ship. I do have some resolve in the works. Hope your car is coming along as good as you hope.

                    Why is it a bad idea? Your question is very good

                        I never thought about it like that, but your right. We have joked for years about buying jackets from Larson and it would save us a ton of money. Then you get someone like Doug Cline that always is joking and he tells me I would have to buy three to get one to wear.

                            Have to get lessons to learn how to play. Takes funds away from speed parts. 'course I'm spending to fix my problem.

                              I have no clue how to play either, and would get more good out of a jacket. I guess I'll have to learn when I finish in the top 3!
