1970's George Follmer Race Used Nascar Suit

George Follmer had an incredible racing career driving in many different disciplines. In the late '60s to early '70s, Follmer had 25 Champ Car starts and drove in 3 Indy 500 races. He replaced the injured Mark Donohue in the Porsche 917 in the 1972 Can-Am series and eventually became that year's Champion. That year also saw him win the Trans-Am Championship. No other driver has ever claimed both the Can-Am and Trans-Am titles in a single season—he stands alone in that achievement. Follmer also raced in NASCAR through the 70s and into the 1980s. 1973 saw him join the UOP Shadow team in Formula 1 where he had 11 starts netting 1 podium. At 39 years of age he was the oldest rookie in F1 since the 1950s, and he still holds that unique distinction to this day.

This suit comes with a Certificate Of Authenticity.
