I have posted a couple of photos of a car that one of our customers had installed a set of 3 point shoulder belts. He lost control and went of a Central California Coastal Cliff and landed about 100
Hi Dave, I viewed the accident pics and am very surprised the occupants are not dead. I was told that 3-point seat belts were less safe than lap belts when there is no headrest. Additionally, in 1962
