1963 Questions for all other cars 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic
----------------------------------------------------------------
I would like to install the 3 point harness seat belts in the front seats of a 1963 Rambler Classic. I know how to mount them, I will have additional metal welded to the 3 mounting points to secure them & use the proper hardware. My question is about the electrocics. Can I wire them to the brake switch. What will 'k" the belt in place if you have an accident but do not have time to apply the brake? Are these belts wired thru a computer?
Is there a style of 3 point that would work for this vehicle?

Thank you

Paul

I have an MGB that needed new belts. Of course they weren't available at the time. Moss motors or Victoria British have thes in stock. they are automatic, don't need any electrical hookups and can be adjusted for position. They are about $80-90 each. I've had mine for a few years and they work great.
