Ripley Power Loader Straps?

Hey RPF,

Does any one know what the correct straps for Ripley's Power Loader are? Or is there a thread out there I'm missing with this information?

Race-car 4 point harness?

I wondered that, but then I thought that as they used a lot of aircraft parts it could be a aircraft harness of some kind.

Could be also I don't think that this type of accessory was researched before.

My notes say the PL uses a "Luke brand racing harness, only modified to remove the logos on the straps and center of the rotary-style buckle", and image search seems to support that. There looks to be a set with the correct buckle and in the proper blue on eBay right now. Straps on the eBay auction look to be a different stitch pattern, sorry, it may have been a different year using the same hardware.

Brilliant, thanks mate. Just the answer I was looking for. It's no problem if they aren't available right now. I'm happy to spend a few years searching.
