REALLY wish I could JC. It was in the plan, but too many things are messing up the plan. The latest was a new roof (last week) that I had in the budget, but came in almost $2000 more than "the budget".

The 'ol SlickStock account sounded like air flapping out the neck of a big balloon!

At least I was able to get the truck completed.

Have fun, hope someone picks you up at the airport. :wink:

Easy to install. Uses existing holes plus two new ones each side (one for the upper and one for the retractor). The big question mark is the upper attchment point in the cab corner. (Is it strong enough?)

I decided to go ahead with it. There is a BIG washer on the back, and I figure if I'm ever in an accident bad enought to pull the cab corner loose, well, I think I would be in bad shape anyway.

I went here:

If you order, (i did build a belt) make sure you get two hardware kits. I thought they where included (they are not) and had to order them later.

Really nice job, Guy! I like the colors. Definitely looks nostalgic and makes the chrome pop.

I love it!

My colors, too. I was finally able to show my son what my truck looked like when it was new.

Guy, please try to round up the coin to make it to Slickstock. You will be sorely missed. Besides, my wife wants a picture of me by your truck so she can dream about how mine may look someday. Thanks, Lyman.

After looking more closely, I see the interior isn't white at all! Haha, the first pic looks white. I like the blue too. Nice and original looking.

Hey Guy,
Do you have pictures of the way the belts are mounted to the floor?
I am putting in 3 point belts in my 64 and have been trying to figure out exactly where to mount them to the floor.
By the way...beautiful truck and great looking interior. I'm jealous.
Thanks again,

I don't know if the floor pan on the 64 is the same as '65?

This should help...
This is a photo of when I started. The black patches are sound deadener from Quite Ride. I drilled the new holes before I took the seat out, so I could test fit everything.

In addition, of course you would have the upper attachment in the cab corner. I placed that one where it was comfy for my shoulder.

Interesting spread of Dynamat. Just trying to keep the vibrations down a little? Did you put any foam down too, or just the carpet?
