Re: 68 chevy red shoulder seat belts
 

Im in search of red shoulder belts...... I know they are desirable, but Im sure they need to be sent away to be re-woven. I had a set for a newer truck sent out last year, and it was $400 because they counted it as 4 retractors.

What price are you thinking? please let me know......thanks, Greg

Re: 68 chevy red shoulder seat belts
 

Do you have any pics?what is the overall condition? Fair?...are the buckles pitted and need rechromed? Are the belts nice or need re-woven? Its hard to begin to state a value without knowing the condition of everything.

I would think a couple hundred. Just my opinion. Any other members have an idea ?

southernparts just sold this set for $125 - you can search his thread to compare - "they`re rough.pulled from a 69 suburban ambulance. both boots are faded and torn, one is missing the piece that the bolt goes thru. retractor covers are both cracked. $125 shipped"

Re: 68 chevy red shoulder seat belts
 

thanks I gotta say mine look like there in better shape than those dont think any of them are ripped but ahve not pulled them either deciding whether to part out or put a clutch , starter and carb on and drive but if these things are worth this kinda money and I can part the whole thing gonna say I may just part it out wife wants to keep and drive it but i dont care for this body style I like 64-66

They look decent from what i see. Maybe up to $300 if you have all of the belts from the truck and they are not damaged.

Re: 68 chevy red shoulder seat belts
 

I got both shoulder straps and the buckles and both lap belts and buckles has a aftermarket center lap belt

Re: 68 chevy red shoulder seat belts
 

I have lap belts....and bucket seats (dont needs middle belt). Im interested in the shoulder belts when your ready to part with them......depending on what you will ask.

Re: 68 chevy red shoulder seat belts

The condition of the rubber boots that retain the male buckle on the pillar will dicatate the value. That is the only part not reproduced.

The rebuilt set that sold for $200 did not have the OEM rubber boots. Those were repro boots readily available. The mounting tabs on those also look to have been flattened in a vice, which tells me they were probably original center seat belts.

Re: 68 chevy red shoulder seat belts
 

pics of belts they are dirty but the rubbers are completely intack with no cracks little dirty but can be cleaned just very dusty

Re: 68 chevy red shoulder seat belts
 

the other side shoulder rubber i dont see any fraying and they all seem in good shape just a little faded

Re: 68 chevy red shoulder seat belts
 

Should clean up decent. Still thinking in the $275-$300 range.

Re: 68 chevy red shoulder seat belts
 

They appear to be the one year only 69' color red interior belts. It was a deeper red/maroon color. My red set is more of a fire red color. I am with Eric on this.... $275-300. Trevor

Re: 68 chevy red shoulder seat belts
 

they may be the deeper red but it says 68 right on the belt they may just end up on the for sale side guys keep a eye out may have the truck sold but told them selling without seat belts

Re: 68 chevy red shoulder seat belts
 

New vehicles are always introduced the fall pf the prior year. So,the first '69s were made in '68 and that's the date of manufacture on that tag. I agree these are worth $300+ if cleaned up nicely.

Re: 68 chevy red shoulder seat belts
 

I know about the years but the truck is titled as a 68 must be a late one but regardless glad it has the belts for me to sell

Re: 68 chevy red shoulder seat belts
 

Here are some pics of them pulled appear to really be bright red color before dirty and faded was offered $400 locally but had a couple people on here interested and made offers first but I told him had to see what the first one interested want to do the only badthing I found was one of the lap retractors had a crack in plastic

Re: 68 chevy red shoulder seat belts
 

I think you could get $400. I sold a set of excellent blue ones for that much. These look almost as nice (mine were from a Suburban ambulance). The retractor can be found and replaced. s for the year of truck,what dies the rest of the truck tell you as to whether it's '68 or '69? Does the dash have wipers & headlights on same side? Door panels,steering wheel,hand or foot e-brake,etc. To me,they still don't look Bright Red

Re: 68 chevy red shoulder seat belts
 

not real familiar with these trucks everything I have is 60-66 but the wiper and headlights are on the same side and it has a the hand emergency brake lever there is even a vehicle protection plan book with the vin stamped on it that matches the truck kinda cool and looking at the spid it has a factory posi 3.73 rearend heavy springs
