So I put this CR an original 1950s beck 666 rs. Up for sale because I have a 10 inch drop, 44 inch chest, 34 inch waist, and it was to much to overlook. Any way it sold to Diamond Dave! Here is his e mail.
(John, I have looked over the beck. Wow, that is in really good shape for its age. I will definitely purchase this from you after the pattern making is complete. It fits like it was made for me.) He told me he was sending it to john Chapman to do the pattern making. We spoke yesterday. So I dont know if john, and dave are going to make reproductions from the pattern but dave is. Thought I would share. Pictures of jacket, and pics showing the drop issue. Previous pics, as dave is in possession of it already.

So John Chapman has time to make patterns for other makers...
That sounds great!

Funny, I used to ride a Craig Johnson model board too but mine was an Alva. Loco Gringo lives.

Old skater here also. I was a Schmitt Stix guy and yes, great times indeed. I collect NOS decks from the 80s and still roll around a bit here and there. Nothing crazy anymore that is for sure.
