[Mg-t] Seat belts

[Gerald Felper]

All
I do not believe in seat belt in MGT cars unless you are racing. The  
steering wheel is pointed directly to my heart and if the car turns  
over the windshield will fold and if there is a passenger than there  
is no room for two people under the dash. I would rather be thorn out  
hanging on to the door, which will break off and be a sled.
