It was actually kind of sad pulling the old shoulder belts out. Those were probably one of the few things left that were original to the car, although completely useless!

So are you keeping the old stuff? I like the look.

The factory stuff will go in a box to likely not see the light of day again for many years. Honestly, the 3 point is easier to use and feels better. The shoulder belt locks like a newer car which if nothing else, provides peace of mind that my nose won't kiss the steering wheel.

I put 3 points in about 5 years ago as it just did not feel right with just a lap belt and I'm very happy I did.

Went to my neighbors garage where I've got my car stored twice last week (Sun & Thur) and started it up, let it get up to running temp then shut it all down. Didn't disconnect the battery as nothing is running on it.
Went out yesterday and it was bone dead. (it was also 6° outside and garage is not heated) I have a small charger, so I put it on the on the start car position. It cranked over a few times then quit. I took the battery out and put it down the basement with the charger on trickle charge. Took a real good look at the battery and found a small date sticker on it 03/06..........guess its time to start looking for a new battery. What do you guys think is a good battery for me to get? Its a stock 350/330 with nothing extra as far as electrical.
