Re: Adding Seat Belts To A Vintage Packard - ??

For what it is worth: a former medical examiner of Georgia County informed me that seat belts alone were worse than no belts since the passenger and driver in the front would pivot on the belt and smash their faces into the dash or steering wheel.

He refused to wear a seat belt in my 1974 Chevrolet Caprice Convertible.

So, if you can add a shoulder belt, that's the way to go - unfortunately.
