[Roadsters] 3-point belts on 69-70 Roadsters?

[Dave Sommers]

Nope. I'm as east coast as you can get.  I don't think I've ever seen a Cali spec car with a trunk canister.  Haven't seen one without east coast rot in 20 years either!

You should be able to pick up a serviceable shoulder belt from someone out there on the coast.  If you have the stock lap belts shoulder belt will fit right into the web end of the metal latch.   There is no left or right side to the shoulder belts, both are the same.
