I just bought a nice condition '64 Wildcat 4-door. My son will be driving this car and I'm curious what I can do to get: Head rests/restrains and shoulder seat belts? I searched but didn't see anything here. I assume I just have to find a year that has head rests and swap out the bench? Not so sure on the easiest way to get shoulder seatbelts. thank you for any help you can lend. Jay
Re: Seats with headrests instead of the bench in my '64 Wildcat and should seat belts I'm not familar with the bench seats of the era, so this is a guess. If the seat is in good condition, how about fitting head rests to it? The bench seats I've done here in Aus used a socket arrangement that mounted into the top rail of the backrest. Just a matter of measuring twice, cutting the vinyl & padding away carefully & fitting the mount points. You should be able to find a pair of headrests & mounts. Vinyl dye to match & you're there. I'm new to Buicks, so someone ( which is just about everyone here) will be able to say yea or nay. Cheers, Chris
