68 Seat belts
« on: April 09, 2023, 10:06:35 PM »
What seat belts would have been in my 68 FB? I have read on some forums where the deluxe belts was a separate option and not part of the interior decor or GT package. So, based on the attached Marti report, would this FB have came with deluxe or standard belts? Retractable or not?
Thanks

By your Marti report your car has standard belts.

Both the standard and deluxe belts had front seat retractors on coupes and fastbacks.
