This is an interesting post in that you can see how far you have come along since this model was built. 30 years ago you built the model with what was in the box. Now, you are listing all sorts of aftermarket companies who's products you want to use. I'm sure your skill level is leaps and bounds above what it was 30 some years ago. I'm looking forward to seeing what you are going to do with this!

Great progress so far! I've only got a few minutes so I'll answer one of your questions. I used medical tape for my belts. I bought about 4 or 5 brands and at least that many blue markers. I tried all sorts of combinations to get, what I felt was the right look. As far as the seatbelt hardware, if you want I will take some pictures out of the two magazine/books I used for my reference. Let me know. It might be a day or two until I do this. The mag./books are packed away, but it will be no trouble to do it.

OK, let's hope this helps. I do not have a lot of great interior tub pictures. Most racing harness pictures are of the guys in the seat at a race, so you only see the shoulder belts. I personally have found that I do not care for Acu-Stion. I bought their PE set for this car and found most everything was oversized. I did use their harness hardware because at the time, they were the only thing I could find. I did not use any aftermarket markings for the belts. My wife, God bless her, sat at our computer and found a font that was very close and printed, over and over, the logo until we got some that were passable. If you go to my Fotki site you can see some of the attempts we made. We printed the black, leaving the white Willans logo unprinted. It was tricky because it was so small and there was a bit of black ink bleed-over into the white.
