    Shoulder belt seat belts
    « on: February 21, 2012 - 10:00:16 PM »
    When did they become an option? Would have my '72  Challenger of had them? My '73 Charger did. The ones that folded up on the headliner panel.

    "usraptr" = United States raptor - bird of prey = United States Bald Eagle.  FYI, somebody else thought of it first so I had to drop the "O" in raptor.

    I think all e-bodies had shoulder belts...

    The crappy "spend 5 minutes re-folding them along the headliner" type from 70-73 and then 3-point retractors in the final year.

    yep, 74 is the only year that came with retractors.  The shoulder belt went down into the rear interior panel.
