Greg,
Most
states, if not all, have an exemption for cars not originally equipped with
seatbelts. The exception to this rule is child safety laws. My guess is that
most states require child seatbelts for older children and car seats for
smaller children.
J.C. Whitney
has some nice belts with a solid chrome vintage look buckle, that bolt to the
floor with reinforcement “washers”. They come in several colors and 3 lengths. Reasonably
priced. I put a pair in one of my cars.

Subject: [FWDLK] Click-it or
Ticket?
Gang,
I have
been noticing the "Click-it or Ticket" ads on television and radio of
late. I was under the impression that our vehicles were
"grandfathered" and would not fall into this law.
Tonight I saw an ad that said "classic or modern, unless you click-it you
will get a ticket". What gives? Has the law
recently changed? I guess the final word will have to come from my
local police department. I will stop to find out and let
everyone know what was said. Before I get any "safety
first" emails, I do plan on putting in lap belts soon. I
just don't know if lap belts will be enough for the law or
not.
