8. I think I'd prefer a solid vest
But I like the cut of the clothes too.

9. Thrift store, or learn to sew.
:)

That's a nice looking waistcoat, too.

This is sorta right, but not completely:
http://www.ushist.com/wardrobe/men.htm

Maybe:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Victorian-Dickens-Sweeney-Earp-Costume-Frock-Coat-XXL_W0QQitemZ330275641583QQihZ014QQcategoryZ52762QQtcZphotoQQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1742.m153.l1262

that store seems to have the right kind of patterns, at least.

Look up Victorian and Edwaridan reenactors groups and costumers.

There's a pattern here:
http://www.harriets.com/victmens.htm

and another:
Pattern #325

15. Off-hand, here:
http://www.rustyzipper.com/shop.cfm/rz/type~Jackets/search~Car%20Coat/gender~Mens/Mens_carcoat_Jackets.cfm
The first one's almost dead on, except it's corduroy. Anyway, there are limitless numbers of vintage clothing sites online. (If people have already posted dozens, my apologies for being late to the party.:))
