Dickies Selvedge Denim Jeans and Jeep obsession.

Dickies 1922 Heritage Jeans We got our hands on some Dickies jeans from their Heritage collection. These jeans are made at the Dickies work shop in New Braunfels Texas of Cone Mills White Oak denim. The White Oak plant in North Carolina was built by Cone Mills in 1905 and they weave selvage denim on narrow looms from the 1940's. We have a small supply of the carpenter and heavy duty button fly straight leg five pocket styles in limited sizes. These are selling well by word of mouth and we aren't going to put them on our web store until they become more readily available. If you're interested in them give us a call or email 66@66MotorPalace.com and we can arrange a fitting and send you some pictures. International friends please accept our apology, we are unable to ship this product outside the USA.

We want a clean one like this for the Motor Palace cheap!!! Mini Enduros moving out to make room for Lori's project.  Red Bikes Nice mostly original 1935 V8. This one's probably going to Sweden. In New Cuyama, pretty good Tri-Tip. We thought we were getting this one but the guy quadrupled his price at the advice of friends.  Lori's next project-a 1969 Triumph TR25W. If you thought it was a BSA it's because it's mechanically the same as a B25. Black Bikes- we just picked up the 1995 Fatboy. It's probably the cleanest one I've seen since 1998. We'll post a few more pictures soon. It's a blast to ride. I just liked the way this looked.

Swap Meets and trip planning

First, a couple iPhone shots from inside the Orange Workshop/Showcase (Maybe the world's smallest store). We're usually here on weekends so come by and say hello. If we're in back we can't hear so call us and let us know you're stopping by. We'll make a fresh pot of coffee. A portable display case I put together for the Hippodrome smalls. A shot inside the showcase. Lori assembling Bondorella's brakes with Bomonster support. "53" the guy on my right is Greg Landers. We saw him at the El Camino Swap Meet the other day. A friend asked how we knew him and Lori said, "He kicked Brians butt at the races." Hey...it's only'cause he's way faster than me! Here's a link to his blog.   http://greglanders.blogspot.com/ I'm still looking for the Dell Orto carburetor pictured here. This was the only one I found but it was attached to a bike. The good news it appears the old Jawa Speedway is worth m...
