I have a few sets of military grade pilot seat belts, laps and shoulders. Cost is $50 a set. Great bargain! all pre boxed and ready for shipping. They have no paperwork with them, are used, but will promise they are as good and servicable. If not happy send them back.
Pics to come tomorrow

Are they the 2" or 3" straps? Gray or green? I need two sets for my ol' hot rod I'm building, but I haven't decided exactly which route I'm gonna go yet. Pictures? Email 'em to me if you want.

no problem. Cant tell you what year. I know they are newer, as in last decade and can hold you in your seat at max braking a would assume by the shear width of the belts.

Pics tomorrow I hope.
