Re:seat belt rewebbing?

[Mike Grace <mgrace@domain.elided>]

Andrew asked whether mail order places like Summit would help to renew a 
seat belt for old Alfas. Maybe so, but I recently had to repair a backpack 
and the local shoe repairman turned out to be the place where I had it 
done. It cost me all of $5 to sew the buckle back on to the existing 
webbing. You can pick up replacement webbing at a number of places, 
including backpacking supply stores or at the local Pep Boys (comes with 
generic seat belt hardware). Take the parts to any shoe or leather repair 
shop with a heavy duty sewing machine and heavyweight thread and you'd be 
there!
