Hi I'm new to this forum.
I have had had three British cars. An early Austin Healey, a 1962-3 mini and my present car a 1969 MK II MGB roadster. I started a 6 month restoration on the car 5 years ago and still going.
i have come across an issue though with the seat belts.
The seatbelts on the car don't bolt to the rear wheel arches but onto the rear shelf. I can't get the original belts or attachment parts here in Australia.
From what I can workout the original belt attachments allowed for easy removal and reattachment if needed.
I believe that the UK and North America used this belt arrangement.
Has as anyone resolved this problem? Are replacement parts available in the U.K.
Terry
