HOW MANY BRITISH CARS CAN YOU COUNT?

Fabric design mock-up.

The printed fabric is similar to our Classic Mini "Parade" fabric.

As a dedicated Classic British car owner I have long lamented the lack of proper shirts depicting any Classic British cars other than a few with Austin Healeys, BMW MINIs, and Jaguars (yes, we have those fabrics...go to Car Fabrics Page 2).  Admit it, there are times when a T-shirt just won’t do…you need sleeves and a collar.

Consequently, last year I decided to have some fabric custom printed with Classic Minis.  That was so well received that we are now offering a NEW exclusive fabric depicting MGs, Triumphs, Spridgets, Jaguars, Lotus, Morgan and even a TVR. The shirts are priced from $70 for a Small through $85 for a XXL.  Priority Mail shipping is an additional $5.00.   After we receive your measurements we will send a PayPal invoice which includes shipping.

Now the price may seem expensive, but a Small uses 2 1/2 yards of fabric, and a XXL uses 3 1/2 yards.  At our cost of almost $18 per yard that means we’re only charging about $24 or so for buttons, supplies and labor.  I’m afraid this is more a ‘labor of love’ than a moneymaker.  Not all that expensive for a quality shirt you won’t find anywhere else.


This is a 4 oz. 100% cotton fabric which is ideal for garments.
This fabric is also suitable for Scrubs or Aprons, however the item price will be considerably higher than the price shown on that particular page.  The prices for lap robes, purses and other small yardage items will be marginally higher...just send an email with your request and we will work with you.

After we receive your measurements we will send a PayPal invoice which will include $5.00 Priority Mail shipping (If you prefer to send a Money Order please e-mail for address and amount.)

The fabric is pre-shrunk, then the shirt is sewn to your personal measurements.  The seams are serged, the hems are top stitched, and the fronts and pockets are pattern matched.

We wish we could offer these shirts at a lower price but we're already charging less than $25 for labor, buttons and interfacing.
