Seat belt ID tags
I am looking for original GM 1964 seat belt cloth tags that are in good condition. I am trying to have new tags made, and need at least 1 tag that is clear and has crisp lettering for photo scan. I am willing to buy out right or pay for the use of, and then return it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

This is the best photo I can get. Not very clear, but the best my camera can do. They are from my 64 with the red comfort seat, and also has the marroon nubby seat belts.

Here are the ones from our 64 original truck. Both Male and female belts. A picture of buckle also. Must have been a late 64. Cause tag says 65 and it is a 64 truck. It is original upholstery also. Dry rotted but original. We bought it from original owner 20 yrs ago.

Turns out that the seat belts that were in my Suburban are aftermarket from a company called Shore-Calnevar Inc., photo attached. Perhaps the original owner felt that the aftermarket seat belts were cheaper than buying the factory belts. I was told that the original belts had 3 row webbing like your's, and the belt manufacturer that GM used was Irving Air Chute Co. I have found, what I believe to be original GM seat belt tags. I have attached a photo of my seat belt tag, and an original GM seat belt tags by Irving. I am led to believe that original seat belt tags are getting very hard to find. So doing a correct restoration, I have to ask, is it correct to use the aftermarket seat belts that the original owner had installed? Or, are the GM belts from Irving a must for correct restoration?
