The front seatbelts came in 1965, and in '68 had to be three point one's. the rear ones come in around 1986.
I don't know why you wouldn't want seatbelts?

You don't have to have them if they weren't required from new - and you have a death wish. Catflaps are more secure than Mk1/2 Mini door latches

I used to have a 1962 Austin A60 which never had any seat belts. The amount of times I got pulled over by the Police was unreal. Some of the young coppers were a bit mythed but the older ones usually just wanted to chat about the car
