Does anyone have any suggestions on what I could do for safer seatbelts in my 69 Cutlass Vert? I prefer to stick with the factory seats for now. Can I buy a 3 point setup for this car? I saw one on yearones website, but Im not sure if it works on a convertible. Its amazing how unsafe I felt in that car with just the lap belt. Again, I would prefer to stick with as factory looking a setup as possible.

My alternative would be new seats, any suggestions on where to buy these? What work well on an A body?

Bill (Howell)'s GTO has seats from a later Oldsmobile that have the belts built into the seats.

These look great, but not sure if they are good for an A body convertible

Just a thought. I've been looking for similar set up or integrated seats for 68 firebird 'vert. The retrofits seem too low for the seat back without a pillar or roof for mounting. As I understand it mounting lower than your shoulder or seat back will cause some serious clavicle damage in an accident.

Thats what happens when you don't pay attention. Sorry just realized you were talking about a vert.
