The sellers informtaion is very sketchy for that year.
Do I have to weld something for the shoulder part? I know it is double walled so it won't show on the outside, but I don't know what to do on the inside for this.
The floor parts are easy but not up on the cab.
Unfortunately, I have finished the truck before I thought about this all important safety matter.
Any help or websites is appreciated

It might give you some ideas. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 2,893 Socket Breaker | | Socket Breaker Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 2,893 | If I recall from my reading about these old trucks, the original 3 point factory belts had two buckles. The shoulder strap did not retract, I do not believe. The shoulder and lap belt each had a buckle. some aftermarket options: -- on my '65 c10, I used a 3 point kit from Juliano's for the bench seat: http://www.julianos.com-- I have read about other folks using a kit from this place with good results: http://gemstreetrods.com-- -W | | | | | Joined: Jul 2005 Posts: 2,031 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jul 2005 Posts: 2,031 |
