Shoulder Harness Seat Belts For Rear Seat of '68 Monza

Post by crtoons »

Does anyone know of a way, or has anyone installed shoulder harness seat belts to the back seat of a '68 Monza convertible? Is it even possible? I have two small children and I'd like to have so e piece of mind when they're in the Artie a drive with me.

I have only seen aftermarket shoulder belts added to the front, never to the back in either a coupe or a vert. You might be a pioneer in that mod. As CorvairCenter member gnvair notes in your thead on that site, there was supposedly an option for rear seat shouldler belts only in 1969 but no one knows if anyone actually ever ordered that option, especially for use in a vert.

These are installation instructions for dealers. It has specific instructions for the corvair. You'll need long belts. I too was thinking of adding rear shoulder straps. Childseats are mandatory here and we have two small kids...

Still working on the car to get it ready, and still looking around. So far I found nice red 3point belts with extensions and chrome buckle at JCWhitney.
