Do a search here, this topic has been discussed many times, with pictures posted. In short, yes they were available, but they're pretty rare. If you want to install a 3-point system, you can either adapt something from a later model or get an aftermarket setup like that from Juliano's (on the Links page).

I use the GM truck shoulder belts in my truck(74 ta 86) they bolt right in after drilling one extra hole in the floor. But I pick that GM sticker of the seat belt latch so no one knows :shh:
