Early safety helmet and racing memorabilia good appearance needs tlc on inner padding
Brand:Unknown Bell, Mchal,

From the estate of a long-time SCCA member and rally driver from Southern California are these great pieces of her vintage racing days. Family has asked that I list these together and not separately.  See very bottom of this ad for more info on her.

Found with four of her many rallye dash plaques, her rare, 1960 SCCA membership directory with many famous names listed and a cloth runner featuring vintage sports cars which measures 27x15" of which has minor stains.  Her Austin Healy badge is a genuine early one.

The helmet is unnamed but the initials NOP are stamped into the inner shell of the helmet.  The leather neck and ear protection is still soft and supple.  Helmet features leather neck and ear protection.  Uses a "D" ring style strap. Outer shell in remarkably good condition showing very minimal usage and no paint loss.  Visor is in good shape as well.  I would guess the size to be medium to large.

Great piece of Vintage SCCA USAC or other historic racing memorabilia the helmet features leather neck and ear protection.  Uses a "D" ring style strap. Outer shell in remarkably good condition showing very minimal scrapes and no paint loss.
  
The inner shell uses a criss-crossed cloth web as seen.  There was a piece of dried foam that fell out of the inner shell and I believe the manufacturer and size were affixed to the crumbled padding which the family discarded.

Great piece to set on your seat or the roof of your car at a weekend show or for your display in your garage paddock or man cave.  Would look great with a pair of old racing pants and jacket or set on the seat of your 1956 MGA 1960 Austin Healy Sprite, MG Midget, 1961 TR3, 1958 Jaguar,  Alfa Romeo Veloce  

Examine the pictures and ask questions and of course I ship to Japan.  It is up to you the bidder/buyer to determine if this item is what you want and it is up to you the bidder/buyer to do your investigation, survey work about the item before bidding or buying so as not to be disappointed and that your experience with me may be a pleasant one like many of those on my buyers list.

The driver first started in her early 20's as a student at UCLA and continued for many years when she later became a professor at Stanford last driving a 1963 Jaguar.

Citroen DS SUV (DS X7) teased ahead of Beijing Motor Show

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

The Citroen DS SUV teased ahead of Beijing With the Beijing Motor Show looming, the teases and reveals are starting to roll out, and Citroen have chose to play the tease game with a single image of the back end of a Citroen DS SUV. Logically, this DS SUV will be a production version of the Citroen Wild Rubis Concept we saw last year at the Shanghai Motor Show, although the tease photo does have differences from the concept. Just like the Citroen DS 5LS R concept we saw last week – a performance version of the DS 5LS – the DS SUV looks set to be a China only model, at least for now.

Mercedes to make E-Class Coupe Estate?

Wed, 03 Jun 2009

The Mercedes ConceptFascination - Could make it in to production as an E-Class Coupe Estate Car makers are searching for every niche they can fill with their cars, particularly at the premium end. Audi and Mercedes are big players (we still think the Mercedes R-Class a niche too far), and BMW play the game too, with cars like the BMW X6M and the new BMW 5 Series GT. If the Mercedes E Class Coupe Estate does go in to production it will bring to five the number of models based on the same Class – the saloon, the coupe, the cabriolet and the estate plus this new Coupe Estate.

Fri, 21 Aug 2009

With fall just around the corner and summer car-show season beginning to fade, a nice transition will be held this Sunday when the Washington Redskins play host to their second-annual Redskins Rides event. Pigskin and sheetmetal fans can satisfy their dual addictions with the show at the Redskins' practice facility in Ashburn, Va. Last year, more than 3,000 attended the event, and players Antwaan Randle El, Jason Campbell and Chris Cooley were among the headliners who appeared from the team.
