Submitted by Tim Wallingford and the Randy Smith Collection:

Randy's racing helmet from the 60's.
Thanks goes to Lisha Smith, Randy's wife, for taking care of all his old stuff for us to enjoy.
I was fortunate enough to hang out with Randy on a few occasions; he'd even come by my work just to shoot the shit and believe me I was flattered! It was amazing to talk to a guy so passionate about choppers, racing and everything else that surrounds it. He once invited me over to his pad to check out his old air cleaner covers.




He had just bought a new bagger with "one of those new Twin Cam motors in it." He had it all apart in his living room just because he wanted to see how it ticks!
