3-Point Seatbelts for 67

[MWHurt]

Greetings all, I'm looking for advice on where to get the best value on some 3-point seatbelts for my 67 longbed stepside. I live near and work on a Marine Corps base, and I dont' want the constant hassle of explaining to the Front Gate that my truck wasn't equipped with them. I'm new to the thread, and currently forward deployed, but look forward to adding some pictures when I get back in the States. Thanks for any help.

Here's one that I have bookmarked for reference:

Although Im sure that there are cheaper options out there as well...

Salvage yard for S-10 belts may be a option for the price.

I ordered mine from Wesco performance and they look great you can get with the gm logo buckles if you like and just about any color. I got the retractable 3-point and a lap belt for the center for a couple hundred this included the mounting hardware also.

I second Wesco. I installed their front and rear 3 points in my 65 mustang. I installed a cheap set of aftermarket 3 points in my truck about 10 years ago and they're looking a little rough... going to go with a Wesco set the next time around.

Thanks All. I'm really looking forward to getting this old girl going once I get back on American soil. I'll be sure to start a build thread with some pics. Thanks again for the guidance.

Thanks Jim, I'll keep that in mind. I'll definitely need some body/paint advice. I don't have any pictures to post yet. My wife found the truck with 48,000 miles on it while I was deployed last year and haggled the owner down to make it a nice welcome home present. I've been in the field or deployed since then, and haven't had time to put in to the old girl. It's a 67 longbed stepside, big window, 250 w/ 3 speed. I can tell that it was originally a column shift, and someone did a very poor job of converting it to a floor shift. It kinda looks like a blind man went crazy with a sawzall to get the shifter on the floor. I've got some money saved up now and plan on making it my daily driver. A new windshield, some seatbelts to keep the gestapo off my back, and some tires that don't go flat overnight are the first step, then we'll go from there. Can't wait to get it on the road. As far as the body goes, there's some cancer in the usual spots (rocker panels, inner fenders, and where the bed sides meet the rotten wood floor), and some "aftermarket accessories" that look like someone drove it down the tacky aisle with a crap magnet on it. The bed rails and cab steps will come off for sure. I'll start a build thread with some pics when I get home. Thanks all for the interest! Semper Fi

Thanks All for the help. I'll be sure to start a build thread with some pictures when I get back on American soil. I'm pretty excited about getting this old girl up and running.
