    Yes, a Joe Walsh song. [Edit- just saw your other post.]

    Joe stole that line from me.

    I was thinking more along the lines of Alan Richardson. But that isnt the first, or second, time I've been compared to Joe Fly in, you can drive one of our other cars.

    Rear shoulder belts in a 1970 Charger

    I've noticed on several of the member's photos that the package tray cover was left in its raw state. I had covered mine in some sort of fabric from Joann's. I like the look of the uncovered cover too. Another decision tree to climb.

    Also a very nice install. Where did you get your seat belts?

    Definitely we can look at the different mounting points.

    Rear shoulder belts in a 1970 Charger

    That is a nice, clean install. The advantage to using an aftermarket company is that the seat belt clasps are original looking. I like that your retractor is mounted directly underneath the package tray. The units I got today won't work in that position.

    Rear shoulder belts in a 1970 Charger

    Child seat LATCH hold down Securing child seats was the first objective, with the rear should belt install a natural extension. I can count on one hand the number of times that adults have sat in the back seat of the Coronet in the last 10 years. But as I've mentioned, my granddaughters love...

    Greg, just saw your post. While we were at the junkyard, it did appear that the retractors had to be perfectly plumb to work. After I got home and started playing with them, I found that there is a little wiggle room.

    Rear shoulder belts in a 1970 Charger

    Retractable rear shoulder belts Greg met me at Pick n Pull this morning and we had a productive venture. I was looking for rear shoulder belts out of a Charger/300/Challenger, and PnP had several Chargers and 300s to choose from, but no Challys. No matter, all three models use the exact same...

    My daily driver 67 Coronet wagon

    I can vouch that this DIY setup works. Back in 2017 after I rebuilt the Dart's front suspension, I had the front end aligned at a shop that did classic cars and supposedly was familiar with Mopars. They did a good job, for 6+ years I rolled around without adjusting anything. The car handled...

    Rear shoulder belts in a 1970 Charger

    For sure, my generation and my kid's generation all grew up without the LATCH system and lived to tell about it. I currently drive the girls in their car seats with only the lap belts securing them in. It's not the most secure way, and my son and daughter-in-law trust me enough take them around...

    Rear shoulder belts in a 1970 Charger

    Thanks Wayne, your resto posts illustrate how I want to update the Coronet. I plan on using the flip top bezels from the late model Challenger, so I'll have to fab a box for the bracket and weld it to the underside of the package tray. You have darling granddaughters BTW. Mine are a little...
