I recently purchased a 1970 144 S. It is in great mechanical shape but in order for it to be daily driver status I need to have 3-point seat belts in the back as I have two young kids.

The upper anchor point was already in place and threaded but there is not a threaded point on the read shelf for the retracting mechanism. I have obtained seat belts from a 240 sedan and just need to figure out the best way to mount the retractors.

Has anyone else done this modification? How did you reinforce the rear shelf?

Thanks!
