71 standard Beetle. Need seat belts.

Post by heliarc »

Really close to having this puppy on the road now. Unfortunately during all the body off/on, cutting, welding, painting, disassembling, reassembling, I seem to have lost the seat belt buckle receivers that bolt to the tunnel. The shoulder strap for the passenger side looks as if someone's dog was chewing on it as well. I figure I might as well get the entire setup. If anyone has a set laying around I'll give you a reasonable price for them. Failing that I'll be looking in the junkyard for whatever I can bolt on but I'd rather go with something I know is going to work. I was thinking at least a Rabbit or Golf that way it can stay VW.

Anyone have a set to get rid of, or a suggestion of what car to grab some out of?

I have front seat belts from a 1970 standard bug. The tunnel receiver is a "U" shaped piece of chromed metal and the seat belts are those impossible to adjust 3 point belts. Is that what your 1971 needs?

Missing the cover and the belts don't look so bad.
