The short answer is that with the car being built in the 1960's, it has to comply with the laws relevant to the era when it was new. *Not* the laws that apply to new cars today. It's perfectly legal to register any standard car built before 1971 without seat belts and it would be perfectly roadworthy today, as prior to that time they were an accessory. Not compulsory. -- Regards, Noddy.
