My understanding of belt date codes is the 1st two numbers represent the week of the year. So my belts would have a date of the 36th and 37th week of 1969, which would put them in September about 3 weeks before build of the car. All my sheetmetal was stamped the 37th or 38th week of 69.

Thanks for posting that. I had the info wrong. Here's a link http://www.camaros.org/seatbelt.shtml
