As many of you know I'm in the process of building my 68 Barracuda. I needed a complete set of belts as I didn't have the first part of the set. I got a hold of member, dart4forte and he sent me every bolt ,clips covers, re-tractors,washers,seat belt, buckle , you name it. He builds these sets and is about $250.00 cheaper than anyone else! And the quality is outstanding. I thought I had a pair of the shoulder belt retainers that mount behind the sunvisors, but I can't find them if I do. So John sent me a pair for the amount of postage! Hell you can't beat that! So if your in the market for some, give him a shout.
 
Definitely on my want/need list for my 69 cuda but it just ain't there yet.
Thanks for the review.

If it helps, here's one of my old (top) and a dart4 forte "driver" quality (bottom). Pretty much the same belt. Webbing is a little thinner than stock but the same as my '05 Ram.
I did a pair of fronts only...............

John sent me a picture of my set before he shipped it to me but I'm no good at posting his picture here. I'll see if John can post it here.

Ok, here's a set of B7 belts. We are doing a set for a member who owns a 68 GTS Vert.

On the webbing, short of NOS which we have in black our webbing is as close to stock as you can get. We can get a lot of the popular colors to include F8 green.

Another point I would like to make. We depend on cores to make the new belts. In order to make it affordable for the owner of a daily driver we use hardware from cores we have in stock. Sometimes the hardware is not the best. With that there may be instances where some flaws will show up in the new chrome plating. Once corrosion eats into the metal it's virtually impossible to hide the outline below the new chrome. This is what we use in our basic sets.

On our show quality sets we use only the best cores. The process is labor and time intensive. No mass production, Chinese parts etc. if you are interested shoot me a PM

I should add that I asked John for a nice set , not NOS or exact copies of OEM. To that end he sent me more than I expected. Yes one of the back seat male plates was showing a little corrosion. But that is OK. I still received a set that was more than expected.
