Lol! Anytime! If you need further information I will do my best to help. GC99TA had an article on this very subject. I will ask him if he still has it and forward it to you. Do a search on Google and I am sure something will pop up.

You can order a set from Morris and have a direct fit or do like I did and use some from seatbeltplanet. The link to Morris Concepts is as follows:

http://www.morrisclassicconcepts.com/

Seatbeltplanet: http://www.seatbeltplanet.com/

The only issue I have with the seatbeltplanet three points is I mounted the retractor at the original lap belt location and it severely limits the adjustment of the front seats. No worries for me and my family as we are short but if I were taller it would be a problem. The Morris belts have a bracket that moves the retractor up out of the way.

A little work is involved. I made some brackets for the shoulder belts out of 1"x .125", made a threaded stand off with a shoulder that would allow the belt to swivel up top, and then welded the standoff to the bracket. Mounted the retractor and end loop to the same bolt at the rocker just behind the seat. I used grade 8 hardware everywhere a fastener was needed. I had to space the end loop and retarctor away from one another with washers. You will have to flip the plastic sleeve over on the female buckle use some washers as spacers and bolt to the tunnel. Other than that it was pretty much straigh forward. If you do not have a lathe or access to one along with a welder, I would just buy the Morris Classics. I added three point seat belts out back as well. I used some 2002 Camaro rear seat three points and bolted them to the package tray. I had to modify the package tray cover carefully to pull this off, use the factory seat belt bolts(low profile), and work everything in together at one time (royal pain in the ***). The finished product looks great in my opnion but does require some tough love.

Bumper brackets. 67 Camaros do not have side marker lights.

Man the car is looking sweet! Great job!!!

I say put some bumpers back on it. You need a little chrome to accent the wheels!
