Default The dreaded seatbelts

Does anyone know of seatbelts from another chevy that will work in a 74? This is a daily driver so spending 300 - 500 on a real set seems crazy. I'd rather not revert to a non retractable belt. Thanks for any input

Rear 4th gen camaro belts are supposed to work. Do a search for members who have used them. I have a set waiting for installation. :cheers:

1993-2002 F-body cars rear seatbelts work great. Pictures on my web page.

I crossed that seatbelt rubicon way back when before I was on the internet at all, let alone this site....

I found a generic set of belts, in a decent brown color, at the Carlysle car show, from a guy selling tons of them...all brand new....

been in the car, working fine since....

think I had to adjust the retractor a bit on just when the belt hung up securely, bent a lever to do just that, something minor nature like that....

been fine for over 9 years now....
