I have had a few comments:
Last winter I was leaving a local gas station after having gotten petrol and a snack. I was wearing 1930s overcoat, black spit shined wingtips, pinstriped blue wool pants a light blue shirt and tie and my Chrome Champ fedora. Guy walking with a girl said "Nice duds man".
A few weeks ago right after we bought our 1939 Dodge car, I picked my wife up right after work and headed downtown to the local ice creme stand for a soft serve. I was wearing spit shined oxfords, khaki pants, button down shirt, tie and my 1941 Stetson Eagle. We were the only customers in the parking lot so I parked close to the exit area of the "line" where you get your soft serve. As I got out of the car I heard "hey look out front" from inside and a very clear "wow". When we paid for our soft serve the young lady remarked that she liked my hat and LOVED my car.
Willing to bet it was mostly the car, and a little bit of the hat. As we sat in the car eating I was playing big band music and everyone who pulled into the parking lot did a double take and either smiled, or gave us a thumbs up.
