Original professional pit crew racing suit in DuPont Nomex, size EU 50, used in Opel/DTM, with patches including Opel, Lexmaul Opel Tuning, Mobil and Matter Motorsport, showing authentic wear and minor tears, not fire protection certified due to age, suitable for collection or display.
Description from the seller
This auction offers a rare opportunity for enthusiasts of Opel's motorsport history: an original professional racing suit made of DuPont Nomex material.
This piece is more than just clothing; it is a tangible memento of the golden age of DTM and the German touring car championships.
Item Details:
Brand and Technology: Made from high-quality DuPont Nomex base material, crafted in accordance with the period's strict fireproof safety standards.
Team and Sponsors: The suit features iconic patches such as Opel, the legendary Lexmaul Opel Tuning, Mobil, and Matter Motorsport. These brands defined the years when Opel was a dominant force in touring car championships.
Condition: The item has been used and worn in racing conditions, which gives it a beautiful, authentic patina. The signs of age (minor tears on the leg section, wear and tear) bear witness to the fact that this suit was designed for real competition, not just for display.
Size: European size 50.
Why is it special?
The "Lexmaul" and "Matter" patches make it clear that this is a dedicated piece of racing equipment, likely worn by a driver on the German touring car circuit. It is an ideal addition to a motorsport collection, a piece of garage decor, or the centerpiece of an Opel shrine.
This item brings the atmosphere of the 80s/90s race tracks into your home. Due to the age of the suit and the nature of the material, it is no longer certified for safety (fire protection), so it is recommended primarily for collectible display purposes.
Do not miss the chance to own a piece of Opel motorsport history!
