Replacement seat belt options - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**68bowtie** · 04-09-2020, 11:23 PM

What are my options if I wanted new (or like new) OEM style seat belts in 1968 fawn? From what I can tell no one reproduces seat belts that match the original 67-72 style, other than in black. Is there someone out there that I missed? Is there someone that custom makes them with new belt material? Or do I need to settle for a restored (painted/dyed?) original set?

Seek out forum member @t korinek and tell him what you need.

I got my 3-point retractable belts with lift latch buckles in turquoise from Seatbeltplanet.com. Vet owned business in Oklahoma City. They offer them in about 40 different colors and with a different bracket if you're still using the in-cab fuel tank. If I recall correctly, they will send samples of webbing colors.

X2 for TKorinek 3 point belts.

Thanks again everyone for the input. What I am looking for is something identical to OEM if anyone has found a supplier.

For OEM I believe what people do is buy used OEM by posting a want to buy ad in the parts section, and then restore them or have them restored. Here's one thread: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=180859

Thanks again guys. I do have a set of originals, in pretty rough shape, hopefully one of these places can fix them up for me.
