Seat belt

Just the Wesco 3 point seat belt and their $10 mounting kit. That has the floor L bracket and large washers, bolts and the insert that goes up inside the post for the top mount. About $85 with shipping.

Seat belt install

The kit said to drill a second hole below the hole you have to drill for the mounting bolt to go through. It would have been about an 1 1/4 if I remember correctly. This is where they said to install the reinforcement plate through. It would be covered by the seat belt assembly but I did not like the idea of another hole there. Plus I though it would weaken that area substantially. So I drilled the hole for the anchor bolt and then drilled the 2, 1/8" in holes where the rivets go. I then took a wire and fished it down through the top 1/8" hole and out the bottom. I ran the wire through the reinforcement plate and pulled it back up to the hole for the mounting bolt. Screw in the bolt, and that holds it in the post, and then take the wire off and put in the 2 rivets. Voila you now have a nice 3 point seat belt.
I did have my window mechanism's removed but I still think you have room to get that plate up through the post.

Those backing plates do fit up into the B post without to much trouble when the windows are installed. I installed a Juliano kit which is similar to this one. I also bolted them in instead using rivets.

I looked at the Calendar and it looks like I may try and do a Test & Tune on
April 7th at Mason Dixon. probably 2 or 3 Covalts and we'd love to have anyone else local that can come out. I'll post over in the event calendar also.
The Bamboozler was a Ron parker invention to get at Slantzilla if I remember correctly. The proper term was a "bagel bamboozler" I think, and it may have been a special term for a turbo. All in good fun.

That's what it was Rick. I am still bamboozled too, I nor anyone else have ever seen it.
