Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction November 2015
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 11/3/2015
2010 saw Jacques Villeneuve try his hand in a number of different cars; one of his most successful outings was his ride in the #32 Dollar General Toyota for Braun Racing in the 2010 NAPA Auto Parts 200 at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve. Jacques put the car on the outside of row one to start the race and was running a solid 3rd at the end of the day.
This is the suit Jacques worn for the race weekend. The Alpine Stars suit has been custom-made to Jacques’ specifications with Dollar General and all the other sponsors stitched onto the nomex fire resistant suit. The stitching and placement of sponsor logos matches a number of photos from the weekend and the suit is photo-matched to a small loose thread on the Deft sponsor embroidered logo on the right sleeve from the NAPA Auto Parts 200 on August 28th 2010. A small sewn-on tag on the interior has the inscribed suit specifics “JV –BR01 -10”.
The suit is from Jacques Villeneuve’s personal collection and will come with his signed LOA.
Please take note that the NOMEX head sock, the gloves and boots shown on the pictures are for display purposes only and are not included.
