Re: [MarcosManiacs] Retractable seat belts

2005-10-06 by Donny Lang

Hampton, My Marcos also has Kangol retractable seatbelts that has the reel mounted next to the headrest. My car is #5514 so it is about 51 cars newer than yours. I can check out the reel more closely tomorrow and compare it to the Kangol reel in my TR 8 Triumph. I'm located in the Upper Keys which should be about 2 hours away from you (assuming your in Ft. Lauderdale). My Marcos is not yet restored, but I am working on some major components in my spare time. Let me know if you if you need more info. I would klike to hear what stage your car is in and compare notes. - Donny Lang

Subject: [MarcosManiacs] Retractable seat belts

Hello everyone,
my build sheet from Marcos shows that my car (3M 5463) had retractable
seat belts. I have a rusted remainder (Kangol) but am not sure if the
retracting mechanism mounted at the base or at the head of the seat.
Anyone know for sure before I start looking on eBay?
Hampton
