Re: [EXTERNAL] [Chrysler300] 300 tent

I recall that there was to be no penalty in concours judging for period-correct safety device such as seat belts. Early belts had pretty plain buckles and even Chrysler part numbers sewed to them.

The seat belts are listed in the 57 Chrysler Accessories catalog with a Chrysler part number. So I think they would be legit for a show-quality restoration.

Nothing in my 57 shop manual about seat belts. I checked the back page of my 300C brochure that lists Standard and 'Optional' equipment available, and there's no mention of seat belts on the list of available options there, either. Guess it was only a 'dealer installed' option, not from factory.

Of course, seatbelts were first offered by Chrysler in ‘61 I believe so, depending on what you drive to Carlisle . . . But I get your point and don’t disagree. My problem with masks is that my glasses totally fog and I can’t see where I am going.

You have to take care of yourself and do what you want. We’re never going to get out of this if people don’t do the minimum to try and stop the spread. I assume you wore your seatbelt while driving there even though there was little chance you would get in a crash.
