I really want to ditch the split bench in my 66 convert with one that isnt split... I hardly ever have back seat passengers and I want to put a middle seat belt in so my best girl can sit right next to me....

Is a 66 el camino bench split...? would it bolt in??
Other suggestions????

Do you really want to do this?? :confused:
If so, a wagon front bench will work.

Will a wagon seat fold forward?

I still want it to fold... just with a one piece back? doesnt the El Camino fold forward?

The elcamino is split front seat like the malibu. 4 door and wagon are not split and do not fold up. You may change the hardware on the out side of the split to the nonsplit and make what you want. Just a guess???

:( Like so many things I want to do, looks like there is no easy answer!

What kind of seat belts do you want to install, and why is it not possible to do it with a split bench? Do you want to use a 3-point belt with the shoulder strap right across the back seat? If not, a lap belt would be your only option. I have a split bench with a factory center lap belt in my -69, so that can definitely be done.

No.. the problem isnt really the seat belt... could do that now...
The problem is she doesnt like to lean back against the seam of the seat backs!

Get her a damn pillow then! ;)

of all the things my wife complains about, I have to say that that is NOT one of them

Now if this was just ANY woman, I'd agree with fellers about the pillow and such....
But let me tell you about my PLG (Pretty Little Girlfriend)....

She LOVES the Malibu, always wants to RIDE in the Malibu... NEVER asks to DRIVE the Malibu... Whenever it needs something if I'm short on cash she volunteers to help.... During the year it took me to build my work shop, (aka the GREEN BARN) she never once asked me to mow the lawn, or anything else that would take time away from the project.... She loves car shows...
AND she oooh's and aaahhh's appropriately at ever rusty part I drag home from the latest swap meet....!

This woman deserves the best seat possible...!

Alright, make it a nice pillow then. :D Seriously, there are thin, T-shaped pillows that are made to cover seams like that. Can't remember where I saw them, but it might be an option.

Maybe an aftermarket seat ( some company named "Glide" comes to mind)...

Maybe a pickup truck seat (maybe even a newer model with nice clothe upholstery)... The ones I recall often do have the entire back flip forward...

The problem is she doesnt like to lean back against the seam of the seat backs!
I'd dump her like a load of bad asphalt!!:eek:

double

Alright, make it a nice pillow then. :D

dang it olle you crack me up somethin fierce :D
