Favorite Work Clothes.

You know, I've been looking through pictures taken of my friends and I working on my car, and various other projets. Then I went back and reminised while looking at pictures of another friend and I working on my moms Cadillac, and our Classics. Just strolling down automotive memory lane. A span of five years.

Then I noticed while comparing some pics of myself....I'm wearing the same Dam thing in every picture! Even the one on my sig.. Yeah, thats me in the faded Orangish/Redish Harley davidson Shirt, and worn Camel Cap, with the Black jeans on.

The only change to my mechanic fashion is seasonal....The thermal shirt.

Hey, its comfy, and already worn and stained.

Do any of you all also have a favorite "Working on Car" wardrobe? I know this sounds kinda sissy, or something...But I didnt even do it conciously. Kinda freaky.

Hey, same here, man. I wear my "Dickies" thin overalls. I have 2 pair that look the same. What's under it depends on the weather outside. Also, my Mechanix work gloves (when practical) and safety goggles (whenever possible) if I go under the car on my back and will be down there for any significant amt of time.
