Re: Middle seat belt?
you can probly find a stock orignal one from one of these trucks in a yard or even another car of the time but if you dont care about the stock belts then go to jcwhitney and get some belts, thats what i have in mine and i love them, even though all my friends call them airplane belts

Re: Middle seat belt?
I "think" starting in 72, 3 belts were mandatory. Or at least all 72's I've had had belts for each passenger seating position.

Re: Middle seat belt?
I think you`re right about`72.I`ve seen it listed as an option on earlier models.(and,seen trucks that had them)

Re: Middle seat belt?
Just FYI -
I looked for a center belt for a while, but finally just went with a universal fit one. They aren't as easy to find as you might think. But best of luck to you. If you run across a lot of them, post up! DLB |

Re: Middle seat belt?
That is funny.And,the sit next to yoy part is true.The not liking old trucks one is true,only if you spend too much time on them.Doesn`t have to be much,either.
The center belt was not an option alot of guys went for and dealers were ordering them.It would take a highly optioned truck to have that item.

I´m trying to find out about the seatbelt too. I keep looking for one at Swap meets over here but haven´t seen any yet. If I get any others I guess I can just shove them back behind the seat until I need them. I will be getting a historical registration and the car or truck has to be close to original. I see classics all the time that only have a drivers seatbelt and the are allowed to drive it on the streets.

Re: Middle seat belt?
My 72 gmc has them in it, but it has every option i think they had then.
I know a guy locally that might have them, but I can't offer to sell them due to not being a paying member YET!!!!

Re: Middle seat belt?
Glad to have ya in the meantime.I know how it is w/credit cards.I even paid for my subscription by mailing a money order because I didn`t want to use a card.It`s the only way to get them down,DON`T USE THEM!!!I could never get my wife to figure that out,even after paying them off with home equity loans and eventually with refinancing.We`re not together now.

Re: Middle seat belt?
It may look like the Corvette belt, but it's stock OEM issue for a 67 truck. Another 67-only item. You are going to find it very difficult to find a 67 center belt. In fact I don't think they were available, so you may be stuck with after market or a mismatched 68-up center belt.
