Evening all. Thought you would like to see my latest project I've been working on. It started when I brought a NOS visor from Stoneleigh, and recently I brought a RAC converted Para helmet. The chap before me had done most of the work, such as drilling holes for liner. I cut off the original RAC hangers and that left me with two holes. Some new bolts, and a bit of tweaking to the visor (the turtle is way wider) the visor fits and functions nicely. I painted it a "interesting" shade of dark green. Not the colour advertised, but it will pass! I still need to make some hangers and buy a chinstrap. Anyway, I wanted to recreate a helmet from the 70's as used by the Para's in NI, controlling riots. Hope you like it, feedback welcome.
