Yes, restoration is definitely looking like the way to go. I am however a bit curious as to how much a helmet like this is worth in its current state. Thank you, I appreciate the help.

It's worth whatever someone else is willing to pay for it. One man's junk is another mans pleasure.
Here's an interesting video in The Screening Room (click here).

You are absolutely right. Ever since I've inherited this stuff I've been learning quite a bit. I had to laugh though. The other day I had stopped into one of those antique malls to take a peek and maybe even find a liner. Curious, I asked the owner how much a helmet like this is worth and he told me $150. I suppose that's the difference between a "dealer" and an actual "collector". I don't think I'll ever get rid of it though. I like it way to much. :)
