[DeTomaso] 72 Seatbelt Latches

[Ed Moses]

Hello Boyd....
 
Unfortunately, mine are missing the face plates.  They basically desintegrated over the winter when I foolishly attempted to enjoy a few minutes with the car when it was well below zero.  There is a missing square plastic plate that had the square push button in the middle.  If the insert part looks right, they'll probably work.  If not, I can certainly send them back to you.  Maybe, if you have a picture I can tell if they looked like mine before going south.
 
Thanks a lot for your help, and all the emails to try and figure this out.
 
Ed

Ed,
Mine doesn't look anything like yours (the buckle half ) unless yours is broken or missing the face plate. The other half (the insert half) I had to cut to get out of the rocker boxes( to get the insert through the rocker box plate).

Hey guys...
 
A couple of you have responded, but no one has actually found any seatbelt latches that I'm aware of.  If someone has located their old ones, please let this string know so I can get an answer back to those of you that have offered.

I sure do appreciate the effort.....Let me know if you can locate them, and I'll pass along my address and a check.....Nothing in life worthwhile is free...!!!!!
 
Really, thanks a lot...!

I think  I still have my 73 latches. They are yours if I can find them !. I put on 6 point harnesses a few months ago.

Hey gang....The seatbelts in my 72 Pantera don't latch anymore.  Does anyone
have two original receivers with the square button that will give me half a
chance of holding my old butt in the seat?  I'm more than willing to pay
shipping and a fair price, but I don't want anything not original.  I was
lucky to get an all original example about 10 years or so ago from an old
friend that owned a Ford Dealership until the day he passed away.  I am so
fortunate to have one of the nicest original examples around, a
nd I intend to keep it that way as best I can.  Please dig around in your
old parts boxes and see if you can help me out.

Much Thanks...!

Ed
