Hopefully I can get someone to look at the pictures I have links to and do the conversion from that. Thanks for posting the picture.

Hey, I paid 20 good bucks for the jacket.

Then I modified it

Sounds good. I got the one I'm talking about from my stepfather. It was made for him when he was seventeen and living in South Korea. I'm guessing it stopped fitting him when he was nineteen or twenty, so it isn't worn or anything.

I tell you what. I'm going to try to get some pictures of this jacket posted in here. I have some before conversion pictures.

Hmmm, guess this thread died without anyone ever looking at the pics...
I've removed them so I don't have to keep track of where they are; they're still in my albums, though.

* The funny thing is that I have just spent three weeks sewing and working on the jacket I wanted converted, and I think it is done. I think it worked...
