Yes, I know....a vintage helmet is dangerous and will get me killed or cause TBI.
I want to restore/customize a vintage helmet that will be mostly for show or maybe riding around car shows, swap meets, the perimeter road at Barber, etc.
Searching turns up either, 1) shops that offer it as a service or, 2) many, many , many threads telling me I'm going to die if I restore a vintage helmet.
I would like a how-to on redoing the inside. Foam, rubber, liner, etc.
Yes, I know about Bell, Bullit, Gringo, etc.
Yes, I know modern helmets are better and safer.
Yes, I know the old foam degrades.
Yes, I know certain glues and paints can cause the foam to fail.
Yes...whatever warning you're about to give me....yes, I know.
Please, a how to on redoing the inside of a vintage helmet?
