I also have a '64 Mk 1 which did not have seat belts when I bought it. The car appears to have anchor points fitted to the rear wheel arches (see picture) but I didn't think to look, when I test drove it, to see if it had anchor points on the tunnel (or floor) for the stalk, or the rear scuttle area for the upper mounting anchor point.ĭoes anyone know if they are present in the MkI or, if they aren't, what would be the most suitable type of belt that should be fitted? I haven't been able to source information on whether seat belt mounting points were fitted to '64 model year B's except that many British manufacturers fitted anchor points from 1960 onwards. Searches on the 'net regarding UK seat belt legislation simply seem to turn up page after page of information on child seats or else minibuses.Īlthough it appears that belts are not required I think I'd like to fit them anyway. As far as I can tell as the car is pre it is not required to have seat belts fitted, nor even provide mounting points for them. MG MGB Technical - MkI B Seat Belt Mounting Points As some of you make be aware I'm about to buy a MkI, 1964 pull handle roadster (with overdrive) that currently does not have seat belts fitted.
