[Roadsters] A shoulder belt solution

[Ronnie Day]

I'd been think about having a couple of "tabs" cut out of maybe 1/4 inch
plate, then welding some heavy wall tubing between them. The tabs would
bolt to the points Gary's referring to, and competion style shoulder
harnesses could be wrapped arounf the tubing. This would be basically the
same idea as a harness bar in an enclosed car.
