Hello All;
The Austin Healey Club of Southern Ontario web site contains a bulletin on
seat belts in early Sprites, 100-6 and 3000 roadsters in pdf format. It was
obtained from a series of BMC/BL technical and service bulletins; specifically,
from Austin Service Journal 1961-11-16 A437. It shows the anchor fittings
for both the driver and front passenger use. Hopefully, it will be of some
help to those of you with 100s and to those with convertibles BJ7 & BJ8s .

belts in a 100? We're thinking of the kind with a snap on one end so the
shoulder strap could be detached/re-hooked when putting the top up or down.
Obviously some sort of reinforcement would have to be added to the rear of the
cockpit for the shoulder strap. Sarah Carr BN1 in Pa. >>

many times, but I don't remember seeing the answer. I have a 53 BN1, it is
still in original condition and my love of driving the car is tempered by its
lack of seat belts. Obviously there is no provision for mountings and I
wondered if anyone had experienced this quandary or had a drawing or
suggestion where suitable mountings should be made. >>
