Can't speak for Colorado but in Connecticut if the vehicle was built and left the factory without seat belts when brand new, it is exempt from the seat belt law. My 1942 Olds was built new and sold without seat belts or signal lights. It has passed CT DMV inspection and is legally registered.
vehicles with farm tags are exempt from seatbelt usage in Texas. Certain utility workers are exempt.
Yes, vehicles that use a chain or gears instead of a belt.

Nobody is exempt from wearing a seat belt. Seat belts and the laws around them were designed to protect people in the event of a collision.

On some vehicles the water pump is driven by the timing belt.
