Seat belt restoration services

[ronzz572]

Looking for some recommendations on concourse seat belt restoration? I'm aware of Snake oyl but what others are out there?

You could try Jessie Grooms over in Virginia. He is an old timer with a ton of inventory and the correct sewing machines too. 1965-1972 GM only.

He always sets up at Carlisle, but he is talking about retiring.

Charlie @ Seatbelt Sity (yes, spelled with an S). Tell him Dan and Dave sent you. Best in the business... totally a no BS type. Great product.

If you're up to it,in general,it's really not that difficult to restore them yourself at home.
You can wash the belts in the dishwasher,dye them in a bucket,take apart,clean & rebuild the metal/plastic buckles & re-paint them too.Removing the retractor springs isn't that difficult.You can even have the chrome plating stripped off the Male ends & re-plated by your local plater.My local Tailor re-stitched them back on.
Finding the original belt webbing material is probably going to be the most difficult part of all,so try to keep the originals as much as possible.

Just had Charlie do two sets for me. Came out great. Not the cheapest. But good work. Good communication with photos for approval ect.

Thanks for bringing this up! I spoke to Charlie today, I think I'll be sending him my early 67 gold belts next week!

Do these seat belt restorers have the correct date coded tags to sew on?
