1980 listing is for a SPARCO NECK COLLAR. 

It is made of NOMEX III, which is flame resistant and does not melt.

"Sparco’s Nomex® collars feature state-of-the-art designs and technology. This anatomically designed 360-degree collar offers safety and comfort at a reasonable price. Extensive testing by a panel of specialists showed how effective this collar can be at supporting the neck during crash tests. It features variable density padding to provide firmer support where the helmet is supported and softer support under the driver’s chin. A unique rear “spoiler” reduces the weight of the helmet on the back."

My late husband had raced a full season of Formula Ford back in the early 1980's, a few years before we met.  If you are looking at this listing, then you are aware of the financial realities of racing.  It took more than two decades until we were in a financial position for him to try racing again.  Unfortunately, his health had deteriorated significantly, but he decided to attempt to race again.  He went out and bought all new fire resistant clothing & equipment (excluding the outer suit, his old one still fit).  But when the time came to go to the racing school (needed before driving in some actual races), unfortunately, fate stepped in, and he was physically unable to fulfill his dream of racing again.  He passed away four years ago, and I am just starting to go through his things that need to be sold.  I will be listing additional items (socks, gloves, etc.) in the upcoming days or weeks.  If you need other items, please watch for my other listings.

Thank you for taking the time to look at my listing, and good luck with your racing!


I usually ship within one business day of receiving cleared payment, however, I have some major health problems which sometimes may cause me to take an extra day.  If you need this quickly, please let me know. Thank you for understanding.


Rare foreign cars head to Carlisle this weekend

Thu, 15 May 2014

Every spring, Carlisle, Pa., (otherwise known as the Woodstock of the classic-car hobby, a title it now fully shares with Hershey) hosts a weekend event just for foreign cars. Last year, over 1,000 cars gathered in central Pennsylvania, with rare foreign machinery making its way from all over the lower 50 and parts of Canada. The longest-traveled cars we spotted last year wore British Columbia plates, which should give you a clue as to the event's following, though we're still unsure which cars we spent the longest time gawking at.

Grand National Roadster Show champ is NOT a '32 Ford!

If you think arguing politics, religion or the cuteness of your grandchildren are divisive subjects, try arguing roadsters. Even the definition can get some people hyperventilating. What is a roadster, anyway?

-- Michael Paul Smith doesn't have a fancy camera. What he does have is a fuzzy beard, a lot of time on his hands, and the ability to create amazingly realistic scenes using scale-model cars and a handful of tiny model buildings. Smith's secret to bringing his nostalgic visions to life?
