Mike the belts were restored by Sharon's Web in TX. Mount brackets were yellow zinc coated, new retractors, buckles rechromed, new webbing, plastic pieces redyed parchment. Like my upholstery the turn around time was about one year. Unlike Larry though these owners had some health problems that accounted for the delay. I've got a set of matching rebuilt shoulder belts for the front seats.
I had the seat belt bolts replated with yellow zinc - not sure it's close to the correct finish as I couldn't tell for sure how the bolts were originally. They may have been a clear zinc rather than cadmium but I can tell you the yellow zinc sure makes them look pretty.
