spiney_norman Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 I've never seen one with a middle lap belt, only ever on the sides in the back. And pictures would probably help if you want to identify the colour, but I'd have thought it's probably Starmist Black! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1900SR Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 How old is the car, and is it a metallic black or a solid colour? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mantadoc Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Every exclusive I've seen has had the centre lap belt and a right and left inertia belt in the back so 3 rear belts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mantadoc Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 i have just realised that my voltage guage takes quite a long while to move up is this the norm or do i need to replace something? Up to '81 '82 the volt gauge was a moving field coil type, same as the oil gauge and responded instantly. After that you get a cheap thermal gauge there the needle is moved by heating a bi-metal strip with a crude heating wire wrapped around it and these take a while, especially in colder weather. An '84 would be lucky to have any safety belts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
