I have a 65 Mustang with standard interior that has never had seat belts. Does anyone know where to find a complete set of original looking seatbelts for front and back without paying an arm and a leg? I have a 1 1/2 year old daughter and need to attach her carseat in the back so we can take drives. I want to start her off young. Thanks

all 65 mustangs came with front seat belts originally, rears were optional. 66, front and rear were standard.

check the classifieds on this site for used belts.

Any idea how the optional rear belts were installed in a fastback?

just like coupe belts, they had a made in carriage nut. if a dealer installed them, they probably just punched a hole right through the metal.

Dallas Mustang sells remanufactured Original seat belts, with new webbing and mounts for $25 a seat outright with no core charge on their seconds program. These belts have scratches in the plastic, or imperfect chrome on the underside of the buckle, but are fully functional. I have survived 17 car crashes, and one helicopter crash, and believe in seat belts. I would not buckle up my kids into 35 year old used nasty dry rotted seat belts.

Mustangs Unlimited sells new generic seat belts for $15 per seat. They are all black (except the button) and look okay. I plan to put some in my '65 back seat. I will paint over the red "press" button.
Keep in mind it's pretty hard to get a carseat tightened properly in a car with non-retractable belts unless you can work it so that it buckles, and is able to tighten, next to the carseat as opposed to in the middle. It's real hard to reach into the "tunnel" of the carseat in order to tighten it.
