1966 C10 Seatbelts

are all seat belts the same? assuming non-tractable lap belts only.
also assuming since the Fawn color was standard, the seat belt webbing would be Fawn as well.

Re: 1966 C10 Seatbelts

don't know if this helps, but my 65 Suburban which was originally Light Blue and White, had Black seatbelts. I put Saddle colored ones in it when I had the front seat recovered.

I have two original 66's that came standard with fawn belts. My 65 Suburban has optional belts which are black.

Re: 1966 C10 Seatbelts

Oh 1 other question. Are these seatbelts retractable or standard lap?

Re: 1966 C10 Seatbelts

It's been a little while, but I bought saddle colored seat belts with kind of a tall plastic piece that they retract into. Makes it easy to grab and they work very well. Got the idea from markeb01 on the forums here. I do like the look of the retactors corvettejim has, though.
