Dale Earnhardt Helmet

[sprint23]

In the following auction the seller claims he is selling an actual helmet made for Dale Earnhardt. It clearly was not. Dale's helmets fron Simpson had a special cut in which the sides were cut straight and the jaw piece was removed. This is simply a retail helmet decaled to look like an Earnhardt helmet.

I know there are a few other racing people on here. I was hoping some of you with similar knowledge can also let the seller know of his dishonest behavior. I tried and got quite a colorful response.
