SOLD
edit to include actual measurements
Base suit size used to create your custom was a 40 but the chest [fullest part] measures 42.75", the waist [navel] is 36" and the belt line is 36.50" The inseam measured to the ankle bone is 33.38", the fullest part of the hips measure 41".
I'm selling my 1 piece race suit. It is a custom fit Vanson they made for me in 06. It is all black, single zipper, Vanson GP armor (knees, elbows, shoulders and hips), 1 set of slightly used pucks, 1 new set of pucks included. Typical Vanson, perforated chest , legs, etc. I've been down in the suit once in 07, little low side in T1, the damage isn't life threatening. Custom Vanson's start at $1600, save yourself some cash on a suit that is like new. i got it in 06 and used it through the 07 season, haven't raced since then. That being said, it is a custom suit, they made it for me to fit me, of course you can try it on before buying, but to give you an idea, I'm 6'-0" and about 155 lbs, tall and lanky. The suit was built with the intention of just wearing a back protector, but I still had room to get a chest protector in there as well. You won't find a better deal on a better suit.
$550
(Digging up some decent pics now or will try to take some tonight)

After taking the suit out for pics, i remembered the zipper on the left forearm could use some work, but it's still functional. make some offers.

If you're up at the next LRRS event come see me at the Vanson booth over by the media center. I might be able to fix the zipper on the spot for you. - Kevin
Updated the first post to include actual measurements. These measurements are straight from Vanson (Nixoid) in another example of how they go above and beyond to help their customers.

Nice suit, but still to short for me.
Great suit, great deal for the right person.
Definitely bring it to the track this weekend Kevin will get it fixed up and you may sell it there.
Not sure if the skinny part will work for me. I'm 6ft 180

Ever near Central Mass or up at the track? More than welcome to give it a shot as there are stretch panels built in.

Yes and Yes. Was supposed to be up this weekend but extended family trumped it and I am now booked to help out in an emergency move.
But in honor of fairness I am not looking immediate, What I have will get me through th erest of the year and give me a chance to 'bargin" shop over the winter. .. From my point of view in your suits case the fact it was custom made and you paid XXX is a non factor since it was not made for me so I cant compare it price waise to a price of what I would pay for a custom suit. And its been down. If I offer up a price it would reflect that. But good luck with the sale .. to me or to someone else
