Thanks, it is awesome. I wear it once in a while at shows while I ride a pre war fat tire bike around. Laughing

That big paint scratching buckle on the front just screams bad idea. Notice the guy on the right removed the buckle.

Okay, I'll play...

Here is a brand new, unused factory full-length workers jumpsuit from the Wolfsburg factory presented to me in 1999 during our vintage VW driving Tour called the "Return To The Fatherland Tour" in June 1999. Still in it's original protective clear plastic package.

They even made for me nametags that I guess iron on. They made four extra nametags in case the one pressed on the new uniform wore off during repeated washings - fat chance of that ever happening! I've only put it on once!

And here is a Bosch service reps service jacket I got way back in in the 1990's adorned with VW factory tour badges and a few patches.

A friend scored this Service Advisor shirt for me today, appears to have been saved after it came back from laundry, see tag on front, the guy's name was Fritz Kretchner. I have no idea which dealership it came from.

I have a jacket I made. $7 coat, $3 patch, $1 pin. It's a nice light jacket for when it's a little cold.
