Looking for a Mid-Sixties style Gentex Lifejacket to go along with the Top Fuel Hydro I am restoring.
The boat was an all wood Hallett, with a Keith Black Hemi called Banzai.
If ya have one hangin on the wall or up in the rafters and would like to part with it...I really would appreciate it!
Thanks!

Be careful and check it out.
I kept one for yrs after I quit racing and the back protector turned to stone.
Coulfnt event put it on and ended up throwing it away.

Yep

The pictures actually make it look better than it does in person, it is pretty faded but in overall decent shape for its age, I thought about putting it on eBay but would rather sell it here, make me an offer if interested, Matt.

sorry for the sideways pictures I took them too close and could not crop them without losing some of the jacket.:thumbsup:
