That sounds about right to me, those leathers look the closest to the "TZ" and "Happy Days" jackets as far as I can tell from pictures. I'm pretty sure when I'm ready to order a jacket it'll be one of those two leathers.....Thanks again, good info.
Thanks again!

Good looking jacket!
I tried posting some pics of a jacket but when I try it seems to only take me to certain files, I can't seem to find the camera gallery for some reason. I opened a couple albums, one was screenshots, just to see what would happen but I couldn't get it to click on them to...
