Seat belts

My 1960 GMC has seat belts, but my 1963 Chevy doesn't. Were they optional, or installed by a previous owner.

Re: Seat belts

Optional until '66 when they became standard.

Cool, thanks! They didn't look like any seat belt I've ever seen before which got me confused.

Re: Seat belts

If they are factory equipment or at least OEM parts, they should have a date stamp on them.
