I credit surviving an accident about 15 years ago, where a guy went sideways, crossed the center line, and we hit with a combined speed of around 100 MPH, to wearing my seatbelt. He was airlifted to the hospital with questions of would he survive, I walked away with nothing more than a bruise across my chest from the belt.
On the other hand I talked to a guy the other day that had been in a serious wreck. In his case, had he been wearing his seat belt, and not been thrown from the car, he would have been dead as the whole drivers area was crushed when the car made impact with whatever it was he hit (can't remember what he said it was...).
While I can well understand the need to wear one all the time, the other side of the coin suggests that ALWAYS could mean certain death. In the end I simply look at it like this. When your number comes up, and the Good Lord calls you home, your going to go, whether it's in your sleep, or kicking and screaming....seat belt or not....

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
