        Davis,

        Moss Motors sells both 2-point and 3-point belts that
mount on the original snaphook-type mounting bolts. I'm using the
3-point set in my TR250. They mount in about 5 minutes, and 
they look like the "period" belts. They are not retractable,
which is what I prefer since you can tighten them down and
they help keep you planted in the seat in fast corners. The 3-
point belts I got were part # 222-206, and I paid $48.50 each
with no discounts.

        If your car was manufactured after 1/1/68, it "should"
have provision for mounting 3-point belts, even if it was delivered
to the original customer with 2-point. IMO, having slightly non-
original belts in your car beats eating the original steering 
wheel in a wreck...

        Best Regards,

Looking for a pair of lapbelts for my '69 GT6+ undergoing resuscitation. 
It
has what I assume are the original "loops" on the tunnel and floor for
attaching the belts.  British Vic and SpitBits have belts, but they don't
look like they work with these "loops".  Anyone have a pair (black or red)
or know where they might be sold?
