      Nag it Mr. Administrator I posted this thread in the Interior Section-sorry. Guys I would to like install a 3 point harness in my 64 F-85 post car and these early GM A-body's (64-65) had no provisions in the B pillar or around where the coat hangers would be in the roof line. Any ideas, pictures would be great. Has always, thanks for the support in our Club.

      Maybe not an option with the post already painted but...
      Fabricators weld a nut on a plate and slide it up inside the post or
      cut a rectangle out and weld a plate with a nut, flush with the inside .

      Yes sir never thought it through this far with the interior build. I saw those plates, and yes welding is not the best option. I wonder if I can surgically cut the hole in the pillar with a small Dremal cutoff wheel, use that high tech body panel glue and finish it with rivets? Still may not be strong enough? Don't know.

      You don't have to weld it. If you can get the nut plate up there, once the seat belt is bolted to it, you're done.
