Seat belt codes

Either plant code or assembly line code.

Kurt, I liked the line codes first, but after seeing some "C" rear hammils from impalas and rear "C" from camaros and they were different lengths! I would think the car model should dictate the line. Maybe it was section inside a plant? like "C" section

BTW Team Camaro and team Chevelle appear down.

guys I am by far a seatbelt expert but I just went through the belts on my cars and restored a set for the 67 this last year and they were sewn by humans in a darn hurry back then...all the ones I have seen are different lengths even if they are from the same car..I am guessing they may have started out with a set length but by the time they folded the ends and such by eyeball that's what we ended up with ...I have measured them as much as 8/10" off in lengths and the tags are all over the place..if I did'nt know better I would say they were sewn in Taiwan new...I would like to read those other threads and compare the notes I have.

I looked at the belts in my totally original 69 Chevelle. Couldn't see the tags on the 3 rear seat female buckle belts without removing the rear seat, and it is a real PITA to get out, so I could only see 7 out of the 10 belt tags. Some are 50K68, some are 51K68. My car was built on 1/9/69.
