You can find some on ebay, but be prepared they are not cheap. They are rebuildable, I've rebuilt my 73 set, they come apart fairly easly, only thing is I had brocken parts and missing spings. I ended up replacing everything with a universal set I got from ebay for 35$. Maybe one day I'll find a donner set that I can use to finish my rebuild... goodluck
Just want to add don't throught them away, ,,junk to you could be a treasure for others... :yesnod:

Check the archives.. I believe there is a link to a company that does seat belt restoration.
I just had to take mine apart and clean them up- then they worked fine!

These guys do a great job, but they are a little slow. I think it took about 5 weeks to get my in-laws set back, but they were perfect.
