Thanks, Rick

Truck Still looking Awsome, You Have Done an Outstanding Job on it, Should Help Your Shop a Lot when People see how Talented you are....................

Hey Rick, I have figured out how to do the seatbelt arrangement. I don't have pics yet, so I will try to explain the best I can until I can post them. The belts were taken from a '96ish Mustang. They were the rear seatbelts. I had to bend the mounting bracket to match the position they would naturally sit so that the belts would side in and out without catching. I had to drill a new hole in the floor to bolt the belt housing to sit in it's natural position. If you try to mount a seatbelt in anything other than it's designed position, you cannot easily pull the belt from the housing because the mechanics think they were in an accident if you don't. I really hope this makes sence without pics. I will post them tomorrow on how I did it. I just didn't want to put lap belts in. I wanted the protection of the shoulder belts.

Thanks for the complements Rick, I really hope you are happy with your truck when it's finished. I love the way it's being built. I have been following your thread... it's good to see how other people tackle a project like that. Gives me ideas...

"talent" is a very mis-understood word. In my world, "talent" costs money. My customers have a VERY hard time letting go if that thing called "money". They love how the finished job looks, but when you tell them that the same job will cost them 10-15K, they freak out. Guess you need to have a sence of humor in my line of work... Keeps me sane... right???
