LMC Truck -- from the 67-72 catalog. Made by Beam's..
nice quality and well built. Installed nicely with no problems.
The latching part is a little touchy as you pull it out to buckle up. You have to pull smoothly and steadily or it locks up.
I looked at my 71 and found no reason why the 71-72 seat belts would not fit into the 64 with a little help. (71 was the first year of required belts in trucks.)
I welded a nut onto a 4" X 4" plate and slid it up the wall into the cab corner.
The sheet metal is a little thin in the interior but it will not pull through.
I built steel plates for the bottom of the cab and drilled where the seams of the cab support join the floor.
It only needs to really hold just one time!!
