There have been a several VERY happy customers of Snakes over the last year that I an recall. My impressions from them is that you won't be disappointed.

I had mine redone by them. They turned out OK, but as I recall they were slow. If you keep an eye out on eBay, you will find a good NOS one from time to time. Bought a pair for my 78' a couple months back for 150 bucks.

There's a guy in NJ named Charlie Santorini of Seatbelt City. I got a gorgeous pair of used dated belts from him for my '70 for a very reasonable price. It's been several years though, but at the time he did restorations with the proper thickness webbing belt fabric etc... Some of the other places used the newer thicker fabric, which will loose points in NCRS judging (if you care to go that route). ~Juliet
