I am willing to be that they were not..
some of the first GM shoulder belts were four pieces. Meaning the lap belts were not connected to the shoulder belts. My '70 Z28 has this weird design. Since the trucks already have the bolt holes tapped for the shoulder belts, (at least on my '72), you may be able to use another set of lap belts, as your shoulder belts. But you will have two buckles per passenger, as my '70 Z28 does.
When I went looking for shoulder type seat belts at the junkyards. I was told that, that is one of the first things taken off the trucks.

Then again, all the seatbelts won't save my ass, if I don't get around to bolting down the seats
