Re: Restoring OEM Seatbelts
Been slowing getting everything together for a complete front & rear set of belts for a 72 Blazer. This has been quite the learning experience for me, because I don’t normally work on Blazer belts, especially this old. He’s restoring the entire interior and was in need of Parchment belts. He sent me an armrest to be used for color matching of dye and webbing. I had some belts, but had to use other colors because they will all have to be rewebbed anyways. It is just too hard to get belts that light in color completely clean. So here is what I have done so far. I have all the belts layed out for the front & rear. Buckles were disassembled for rust removal . The male ends will get replaced with new, they were pitted. All the buckle covers were dyed in Parchment, and will receive all new emblems.
They are off getting the new webbing. I should get them back this week, so stay turned for the finale. I can’t wait to see them!!
Last pic is the interior he is going for.
