fordmustanggt_350 Posted March 13, 2020 Share #1 Posted March 13, 2020 Hello guys, I am cautious on this one as I would really like to purchase it but I do not know the owner. What do you guys think on the painted insignia? From original pictures that I have seen it looks like the style that was commonly seen in Italy for the 91st but I am curious to know your thoughts. Its not ID'd in anyway. Thank you, Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Jerry Posted March 13, 2020 Share #4 Posted March 13, 2020 It seems a bit odd to me that the only 'chunks' of damage are on the the tree. I would tread carefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mccauslandpara1944 Posted March 13, 2020 Share #7 Posted March 13, 2020 This seller is a known faker from Italy. He has multiple alias such as Mr.Ciak, Mr. Jingol, and vierville1944. This helmet was open to bidding and the seller was bidding on his own helmet with multiple accounts. Now it is listed as buy it now. There is no doubt this helmet has been artificially aged and is a fake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
