Seat belt

Anyone have an experience with these belts or similar?

Thoughts on using in a 1950 AD?

Re: Seat belt

I've never seen those before. Not in an add or in a photo.
Reading this http://corbeau.com/other/harness-bel...ness-belt.html I'd think that you would need a bar behind the seat about seat top high to run the back strap over or some other way to secure it at seat top level while securing the end at floor level. You can't just run it over a bench seat as that will fold the seat on you in a hard hit. any sort of ring hookup behind the seat fastened to the sheet metal would probably pull out in a hard hit unless you can reinforce behind the panel. Those are really designed for race rigs with a full cage or maybe 12 second car with a roll bar.
