Another Few Questions

On my 65 Traveller, I'll need rear shoulder belts. Seems like I have seen them somewhere. Is that what's called an inertia belt?

Isn't there a service that will trace the history of your car somehow? Seems like that would be pretty cool...

Most of the main parts suppliers sell seat belt kits, front or rear. e.g. this from ESM. I think they ship to the States. Check they are suitable for a Traveller, as some aren't long enough.

"Intertia reel" are the sort of belts (front or rear) that let you move about during normal driving, the belt is wound onto s spring loaded reel. It locks solid when you hit something or brake heavily. "Static" belts are the sort that are fixed length, except for the basic buckle position adjustment.

See this thread on here, regarding whether the reinforcing plates supplied are adequate for rear belts. http://www.morrisminoroc.co.uk/index.ph ... ing+plates

The heritage motor Centre holds the records for all UK produced Minors, and will supply you a certificate (for a price) with details of your vehicle original manufacturing date and spec. and first dealer it was shipped to. After that, you're pretty much on your own as far as history goes.
