[Spridgets] Inertia seat belt

Not necessarily.  US belt manufacturers, at least for racing  harnesses, 
use a different type of webbing to UK manfucturers, at least for  racing 
harnesses.  So, they are much longer lived and considerably less  effected by sun 
exposure.  I'm not sure Alan was after a 30 year belt but  it's an 
interesting point for everyone to really think about how old the safety  belts are 
in their car and whether or not they ought to be thinking about  changing 
them due to their age.

Agreed.  Thirty plus year old belts have been weakened by time, sun 
exposure and  chemicals. When you really need them is when they are sure to fail. 
By a new  set and glue on MG logos if you want them to look  original.
