When I bought my 69 Dart, there were some parts just tossed in a box. The seat belts were in one of them. I got them cleaned up and now I'm going to install them, but all the bolts are different sizes and I have no clue which one goes where, or if it makes a difference. The threaded parts are the same, but the shoulders of the belts are different.
From left to right, the shoulders measure .40", .60", and .90 inch. I have two each of the short and long ones, and four each of the middle ones.
The front seats are buckets, and have the goofy double belt arrangement for the optional shoulder belt if you want to use it. The double belt looks like it goes next to the console, so the single retractable belt goes by the door.
The rear bench has three standard lap belts.
Top belt, retractable. Middle belt, the double belt thing. Bottom belt, a rear but the ends of them are all the same, angled flat metal.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the bolts should go in the following positions:
And clarity would be greatly appreciated.
Now for the fuel tank questions. Shame on me for not taking pictures when I disassembled the old one. I have this clip (I believe it's a grounding strap) that I know goes from rear end of the fuel line to the tank fitting. Does it make any difference where it attaches? It looks size-wise like it would clip to the neck of the outlet fitting.
Lastly we have this gaskety looking thing that was on top of the fuel tank. I think it provides a bit of padding between the tank and the spare tire well/floor pan. It's looking pretty mangy. By appearance and feel, it looks like heavy treated felt or tar paper of some kind. I have some roll roofing felt left over from building a shed that looks and feels similar. Can I make a new pad of the roofing felt, or would it be better to source a correct pad?
As always, thanks for the help oh gurus of the forum!
