$10 on EBAY. A buddy of mine did the stripin'. Hes learning and that was an early attempt. I still think its pretty bitchin. Needs relined, and its a bit too tight. Suppose i could fix those problems at one time though, huh?
 
This is one of mine:

Sorry, crappy pix. It's getting kinna old but I keep it in a bag so UV damage making the shell brittle is kept to a minimum and I always wear a balaclava so it's still fresh inside.
 
pretty much the same ones...Either JTRacing guards or some other vintage MX face guards.

The difference between mine and the one in the above pics is that... that guy snaps the guard directly onto the outside of the helmet.

I like to snap/connect mine onto the leather lining/ear-flap that only exists on a few makes of 3/4 helmets.
Ive found that only helmets made by: Skidoo, Bombardier, or LSI have the internal leather flaps that you can snap the guards onto..

Incidently.. I just bought this one on ebay last night:

that I will put on this helmet: (notice the leather ear flaps inside the helmet...)

Loco,

Thanks for posting the links to the masks. I will go ahead and get one. I had the Hanna mask on my watchlist, but let it pass.

just make sure that you get the right kind of helmet...
 
lets see the inside..
I believe that you are going to have to drill holes into the shell of that helmet and rivit the snaps to the outside of the helmet.

I dont believe that has the leather ear flaps on the inside..

It has canvas type? ear guards/flaps (behind the ear padding) that are secured to the shell with the rivets/snaps as shown on the outside. No picture with me.

I am not sure it that material would be strong enough to hold in place.
