My understanding of the seat belt date codes is as follows:
The rear lap belts are dated 49 A 70 and the front belts are dated 50 A 70. The first number (49 and 50) denote the week of the year and the last number is the year they were produced, which in this case was 1970. The Alpha character, (in this case A) is the day of the week, with A being Monday, B - Tuesday, etc. Therefore, the rear belts are dated November 30, 1970 and the front belts are dated December 7, 1970. Those were the date codes of the belts that were in my car, which was built in the Norwood plant during the second week of February 1971. At the time I had these restored, I considered just using one date code, but decided to stick with what was originally in the car.
FYI, each label (including the date code label and the "Important" label was an extra $15.00 at the time I had these restored. Kinda pricey, but they turned out very nice.
