Buddy Bucket guru's

I noticed in the assembly manual that there is listed a seat belt retainer mounted to the center console on the 67?/68 trucks equipped with buddies. Ive seen several sets of buddies but never the belt retainers. Has anyone seen these and has pictures?

I found a set on the net and am going to install them on my 67 CST.http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/a...1&d=1556211762

Re: Buddy Bucket guru's

My 67 came with shoulder harness but no evidence of retainers. I don't know if that is a 68 only thing for retainers or just not done in Oshawa. Either way 4 retainers are going on to keep that bundle of snakes under control.

Re: Buddy Bucket guru's

My 67 had shoulder belts as well from factory but no retainers. Not sure how the factory determined what got these. I did add them to mine as well but I ran 4 across.

I went through your build thread again to see the retainers. Any pics?
I want to take Vermillie the Redheaded Stepchild on a long run. Was thinking Saskatoon. Any shows coming up this summer? I would like to meet some of the Saskatchewan members.

Re: Buddy Bucket guru's

Wondering if your manual has a diagram for the Suburban buddy bucket console; it doesn't have the hinged seat back. It's just the console box and bottom cushion lid. I love to find one or have one fabricated.

Do you know if that seat came in a truck with shoulder harness?

I wish I knew. I picked them up complete but disassembled for my ‘68 GMC.
