You can now look the part with this ready-muddy genuine Barbour jacket for just £500 (USD 800).
Hard to believe but true:

Here's the Man himself wearing his Barbour jacket, complete with ciggie dangling from his lips:

Forchetto doesn't wear Barbour often, but when he does, he prefers Steve McQueen pre-mudded...

Looks like a plan is coming together for a road trip West for the Friends of Steve McQueen event in June!
Mrs. ArmyVet's on board. Little ArmyVets are on board (may cost a trip to Disneyland however).
How many other SMQ owners are thinking about making the round-up?

I have had several Barbour jackets - they are now a fashion item but mine were used on the farm. Now you pay through the nose for the benefit of the label. They are intended for shooting parties and riding tractors - if you want to indulge in strenuous walking or what ever they are not that good as they do not breathe - you will end up wetter on the inside than the outside. $800? stupid - we thought they were over priced at 70GBP ($110)?

For those of you heading to Long Beach this week for the IMS show, the McQueen Racing customized SMQ Bonneville, #0000, will be on display.

Grips
I asked this question in another hand grips thread but thought I'd inquire of other McQueen T100 riders. I'm having trouble getting those hard plastic hand grips off. I don't have an air compressor unfortunately and I don't want to pry too hard from the end closer to center for fear of cracking the turn signal/hi-beam housing. The grips are stiff enough that I can't seem to get anything between them and the bar on the open end. Suggestions from those who have gone before? Many thanks!

Squirt some WD40 down there, let it sit for a bit and then go to town on that bad boy.
