The shirts that I wear in the shop are mechanic shirts and I adorn them with patches that make me LOOK like a professional mechanic – I am not. I am doing a large remodel and modification of our VW Syncro Van and thought it was a fine opportunity to add a few more shirts to the garage/shop wardrobe.
Some of the the new patches came in:
I also designed a VW Syncro-specific shift pattern patch that I just got the proofs for. They will go on the VW shirt sleeves or I will swap them for the blue VW patch on some shirts. I had to order 50 of them, but am selling the extra through a local VW shop and on the Samba Forum for what they cost me – sharing is caring!
I also have shirts made up for our other vehicles – just to mix it up. . Whenever I wear one o my Scooby shirts, random folks stop me in the store or at coffee shop to ask me about a noise or a mod they want to make. I have to explain that I’m not actually an official Subaru mechanic. About 1/3 of the time they keep asking me the question though.
My Jeep shirts probably see the most wear/use and my CJ-7 is a daily driver
