Three point safetybelt

[AW-100]

Anyone fitted three point safetybelts to a 1964-66 Barracuda without roll bar? Is there enough strength in the rear pillar to weld in a seatbelt anchor or will the entire pillar pull loose in a crash?

When you refer to the "rear pillar" are you talking about the frame right forward of the rear window? If not, there is not much "structural," existence foward in that area that I would attach a harness to. IMHO.

I would think it would be sturdy enough. But I would want a nut welded in to a doubler to spread the load out a bit.
Here is my 73 Dart Sport with sunroof structure showing where the shoulder harness attaches.
