The pictures I posted earlier in this thread are the standard (non-deluxe) belts. I had a '72 Custom with a bench seat and deluxe belts. They were the same type of design.
On my current car I did not reinstall the shoulder belts during the restoration. They are cumbersome to use and get caught in the door jamb/sill if you're not careful. I figure if they are not installed I have a chance of not getting a ticket!

Here's my '72 set-up.

My 72 had the decal placed horizontally (reading position) on the a/c box surface closest to the engine. In the 2nd pic of the 454 above it would appear just above the air cleaner snorkle. No way of knowing if this was the original position but can't imagine why someone would have moved it.

We had a new 72 Monte Carlo when I was kid. Didn't have the decals. If you look at Year Ones catalog it indicates that they where on late 60's Chevelles.
Shoulder Strap Question

Good advice. I grew up in the time of seat belts going completely unused, no helmet for riding your bike, etc...
Considering the safety differences between our Montes and newer cars we are taking a risk everytime we drive them! Maybe I should reconsider installing the shoulder belts.
