1969 & up 240Z seat belt tags - Reproduction

[240Ziggy]

I have reproduced the seat belt tags for the 1969 240Z we are restoring and if anyone else is interested please let me know. This is going to be a one time run as it is very difficult and time consuming to make. The material and print is as close to the original. I will custom stamp the month per order, once trimmed, I will heat treat the edges to reduce from fraying.

 

First time offered here and sharing to CZC members, price for 4 tags per set is $100US, additional $30 each per tag, shipping will be FREE. I will wait a few days who are interested so I know how many months to stamp.  So far i'm going to stamp 9 and 12.

 

Once it dries out here, whatever left overs I have will be sold on-line for $120US per set plus shipping cost $26.70 from Canada. 

 

Thanks in advance.

Ziggy,

I'm very interested in procuring a set from you, but would need the date stamp to read  7 -1970

Would you consider this??

The belts I have are the originals to the car, but the tags I have are quite tattered and do not make a full set of 4.

I restored my seat belt mechanics and had Snake Oil (Texas) replace the webbing and labels. This is the thread on the restoration of my seat belts:

I remember that thread Jerry----I've thought about Snake Oyl before, but your thread indicated you had some less than perfect results with them. Seems you got it all worked out, but I had reservations and they're pretty pricey.

After seeing Ziggy's excellent result with the 69 underhood decal, I'm hoping to place this additional work his way.

Yes, they were a bit pricey, but matching the webbing labels etc... they did an excellent job. First time instead of replanting my original male ends they used a standard end not realizing that not only was the end not correct it would not receive the shoulder strap. They plated my originals and redid the belts. In the end I have been very happy with their work.

That (above) and the cost was what I remembered most---it gave me pause that they didn't inspect your originals and realize that their solution was not!

Glad they made it right for you.  (redemption as it were---)

hey Zup, no problem. I can make that 7/1970 tags for you. I'll add that on my list. Thanks.

I'd be interested in a set.  I need to check what I have on my cars to confirm the date, but I think all my have 9/69 dated tags.

Thanks Mike B.

So far the lists:

9/69

12/69

7/70

I would be grateful for a set. I'll have the date shortly (after a dig in the parts bins).

Ziggy, looks like you really nailed it, from the correct font to accurate sizing and fabric texture.

Any chance that you could do a set of 4 for me with a date of 1 - 1971?  

I am currently working on reproducing the early master vac decal, so I can definitely attest

to the work involved in doing these right.

ok AZ. I will add yours, but please confirm and post a photo of your tag, i'm not sure if your 1/71 is the same style as the '70 still. My '72 has a 12/71 stamped on it and has a "Y" on the side. Notes on the 1970 and 1971 has a letter code on the right edge, see photos. I have no idea what they meant.

 

240260280 - I'll add yours too when you confirm the month.
