    That link has more bugs than a bloodhound running through a forest!

    I tried it twice and it locks up this computer almost instantly!

    JMO, but that's one of the most ugly treatments of belts I've ever seen, plain ol' butt ugly.

    Not sure what you're doing or relating to. Yes, that is a roadster with shoulder harness belts and a roll bar, but not one that I would pass in technical inspection at the dragstrip. That car would never make a pass if it were up to me.

    Oh, and ugly, that may be the ugliest example of a deuce that I've ever seen.

    MMMmm - tough crowd tonite! I can't see those belts in a "street" rod. Way overkill imho. Do you really strap into that to use your car?

    I only have a lap belt in my car, but you might want to check to see what Juliano's offers.

    I'm with Techinspector1. Those belts would do more harm than good in a crash. Mounted totally wrong. Those mounts at the top of the seats would do a very good job of severing your spinal cord at the your neck.

    I had a look at that car on Rod Authority site and am simply glad to read here what others thought of the car. If you think the seat belts are ugly, you should check out the front end. That car would be a critical care unit case for some major de-uglifying . I actually wondered if the builder had attempted to have an airbag in the centre of the steering wheel too.

    I didn't like the look or placement of the seat/shoulder belts. Now that I see that the shoulder belts not only go over the back of the seat, but are mounted well BELOW the top of the seat back. Can you say spinal compression? I thought you could.

    I hope the words " 32' Ford " arent sewn into the upholstery.....misspelled the 32' since it
    should be '32

    But, as my wife says, "don't expect that everyone paid attentiion in your 4th grade class"
