does anyone know if anyone is re popping burts trans am jacket or if there is one for sale out there.?
-
I've seen a few on Ebay from time to time but you will pay through the nose to get it. Far as I know there isn't anyone planning on remaking them any time soon.
-
I didn't know they made and replicas of his jacket . I am going to have to watch the movie ,as I can't even rmember what it looked like .I also thought his hat was black until I seen one on EBay .Funny ,I seen the movie like 20 times lol
-
I just found a pic of his jacket,but it's from the sequel . Nice though
update : I didn't know you were reffering to the sequel ,as I just read there was no jacket in the first movie . I thought so ,as all I remember was a red cowboy shirt

Yes, I am in the process of making the replica jacket. I have the pattern and most of the correct material, I am still searching for a better match on the main red material. I should have them for sale soon.

^^ That and the differant font ,and the wong color font ,and the bird look's like sh**,and the red stuff looks like something from a space suit lol
I am sure the Hitman will pay way more attention to detail when he gets his made . Can't wait to see them really ,as it's going to be one of those must have's for me !

Actually this is a relic from the day.... My father found it in a house he was clearing out. estate sold and new owner wanted previous owners belongings removed ( Estate Sale item).. Dad actually made me give him a dollar before he told me about the jacket.. just said give me a dollar... I kept asking what for? He gave me the spill.. " Boy all the times I gave you money you cant give your old man a lousy dollar?... So I pulled out a 5 and said Its all I have one me... he walks out of the room and comes back in with the jacket and 4 dollars... LMAO... But the jacket is one from the old days. I cant wear it for very long.... gets too dang hot for me...Wife wears it more tha I do... Like how you changed the color to marty blue... shame they dont make these anymore

What about the silver ones form the original movie???
I had one of those for years ... finally wore all the silver off and hd to get rid of it
-
I like Virg's better, 'cause I am not the Bandit, and I like black better than red.

How much for the red one lol

Something tells me you'd have to have a massive pile of greenbacks to even get Brett to consider letting a real one go..... ;)
-
Well, I have seent he red ones sell before (only three in six years) and they averaged about $1,000. So, double that and maybe I would consider it.
-
I like the second one from the right.
-
Brett IS Mr. Fancy Jacket...
I bet if one were to find one in not the greatest shape on the Internet for sale and then take it to a tailor.... I bet they could then cut all the stitched seams and then they would have all the fabric to lay out, measure & make patterns..

You know that might be a good idea but!!!!!! when my 25 year old son was two......... and I was wearing that jacket at the store with him............... and he puked grape juice all down my back and sleeve. I just don't know that I could give that as a birthday gift. :-X :-X :-X
