Hi Rob,
I was just making a point, I do actually have retractable seat belts in my 67 Kombi, it also has disc brakes a ball joint front end and an irs rear.

I am sure you don't need to have seat belts in cars pre 1968 as this is before ADRs were put in place.

The bus is a bit more lively than standard and although I had already installed them it would have been a condition of the engineer before he would approve the modifications.

I understand that stock restored busses don't have them, however when you start modifying you then need things like seatbelts, demisters and 2 speed wipers etc etc.

Bert, our 67 13 window Kombi did a 16.4 sec 1/4 mile fully dressed with roof rack and skinny street tyers.

Phil
