Imho, long nose: Repa. middle: autoflug. 964/993 : sebelt-sparco are period correct for the cars

I have a period 70's-80's: Simpson harness with the military style buckles that can be used as a 4point for streets or 5 point on track that I'm not using out of a 3.2 if you are interested

they were used in lots of cars in the day. Simpson himself became famous for lighting himself on fire on the pit lane intentionally to convince the other drivers that his fireproof suits worked!

The most notorious are the ones James Hunt used @ Suzuka Japan.
Gurney Eagles used Simpson back in the day.

I have a set of the classic TRW/Sabelt belts that I used in the early '90s. Long since expired, but there's nothing visibly wrong them, so I've kept them all these years...

yes there cool. i have a bunch of them too, some of them are new with turn buckle while others are the standard type. they are new untouched but expired so it wont pass scrutineering for racing. they would be great for a street car though.
