Question about 67-72 factory Shoulder Belts - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Swbman · 08-18-2004, 01:03 AM

Maybe this has been discussed before as to there difficulty in locating, I was out junking today and came across this set of seatbelts that had the belts mounted up above the bench seat,the truck is a 72 cheyenne, its a basket case but still had a lot of good parts on it, its at a crusher yard, hopefully I get the whole thing for cheap.Does anyone have any pictures of shoulder belts.

no pic, but imagine a lap belt bolted to the pillar over your shoulder.

Here's some pics of the belts in my '71. Does anybody know if these are original equipment? The colors match my interior but there is no option code for them on my glovebox decal.

That's a nice setup, '71. Now, if only I could find a set of belts that matched my green interior... Why is it that almost all of the replacement/repro parts come in every other color except green?!

This pic show the shoulder belts ...note the recessed area in the boot. If you found a set like that Swbman... if you want a sale ...let me know. Rod

Anyone know what that blue set is from? Looks like a nice alternative to the originals since they're so hard to find.

Teh retractor looks 88 - 98 pick up...but nothing else looks like it...including the color.

dyingdeadman · 12-01-2004, 04:50 AM

those blue seat belts look alot like the ones I saw in a 82 chevy 4x4. so i would say they are from an early 80's chevy truck.

I am driving an 87 Burb and had to go scrounging for a seat belt cause my drivers side one screwed up. Anyway the blue belt shown in the 71 is exacly like the one from my 87 Burb and yes the 87 pickup ones are different, I found out the hard way.......
