These gorgeous leather jackets are perfect for auto snobs -- they're lined with salvaged leathers and fabrics from vintage car seats.
The Platinum Dirt VIN Jackets are made to order and custom-fit by Dustin Page, a passionate connoisseur of cars himself. A lover of Cadillacs and Lincolns from the '60s and '70s, he went on a mission to find the remains in auto junkyards. He used the old leathers to create brand new, retro-cut, distressed leather jackets and gathered hood-ornaments to act as zipper pulls.
This way if the wife makes you give up your '63 Caddy, for $1,200, you can still wear part of it close to your heart each time you miss it!
Now that's classy trashy!
