vintage helmets
Anyone have vintage helmets they can post pictures of? %/
Anyone have suggestions on where to purchase such an item? Thanks!! b |
What vintage are you looking for? New vintage style or actual old helmets?
My personal favorite is Sir Sterling Moss's Cromwell helmet: http://www.sportscardigest.com/wp-co...s-w-helmet.jpg Larry |
I am really not sure....
I truly appreciate and 'dig' the look of these helmets. ...found a link to some bike helmets....but have seen a cool one with a visor (kind of like a space helmet) on the BackDraft site video where the cars twist thru the hills of Europe. Pacto Store - Vintage Racing Helmets and Oldschool Motorcicles i really dig the helmet the guy has in this vid: SUNDAY OF THUNDER.mp4 - YouTube |

i still have my old half helmet....kinda looks like a CHPs helmet. made by Buco
left over from my misguided youth....when my kidneys didn't care if a rode a triumph hardtail..... now i'd have to stop every two blocks to pee |
Another fav... a vintage Les Leston:

i tried e bay... but .. what is the best 'title' to put in..
it gets squirrelly fast: with vintage helmets... |
Try "Vintage Racing Helmet". That cuts the field down a lot.

cool; that helped a LOT

Motorcycle and car swap meets are always a good source - and flee markets...

I tried the E Bay way once also and came up with very little. How about this new one, I don't see a price.
