Heavily-worn fire suit dates from the time when the drivers used to wear them more than once before getting a new one. Note how the back is much darker than the front? That's sweat and g-forces at work. All kinds of endorsement patchs decorate the front, from "Champion" to "Goodyear." Patch on upper right chest reads, "Black American Racers." Main sponsorship is "Viceroy." Includes photo of Scott wearing similar suit. From the Paul Hill Collection.
