psychostang Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 Ok, so when I bought my 65 Riviera in June of 2017, it was missing a lot of parts. One such part is the retractable front seat belts. I have the optional custom interior, in saddle. If anyone has a set of these please let me know. Also, if anyone has a picture of what the buckles are supposed to look like for 65, I would appreciate it if you would post them. TIA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Curran Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 I don’t have a picture but the Fisher Body Coach is on the buckle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psychostang Posted January 2, 2019 Author Share Posted January 2, 2019 Thanks Pat. I think that finding a set of those belts or buckles, will be like find gold in the sahara! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loren@65GS.com Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 It turns out that the belts are the same as those used in a Skylark. There is a difference in how the retractors mount though. The Riviera ones have a separate piece that bolts to the floor for the retractor to bolt to. Just thought I would throw that out there. Just need to come up with the mount piece or make some.

dr914 Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 and the 65 has a housing to fit the retractor assembly. Snake Oyl products may have a set Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelman Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 (edited) Not sure these are exactly the same or not. Buckles look like an exact match to the picture Tom posted. Found these earlier today in my Impala book from Classic Industries. These are 66 Impala Deluxe belts. Having trouble posting a link, but could be worth checking into. Almost forgot, you can also buy just the Fisher Body coach sticker, if you have belts that just need new stickers.

RivNut Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 https://www.classicindustries.com/product/1966/chevrolet/impala/parts/3396121.html From what I can tell, there's no color options. Kind of like Henry's Model T. You can have any color you want as long as its black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelman Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Well pfft. I was concentrating on the correct buckles. Website link says available in black only. However, the printed catalog, which is less than a month old, shows 5 colors. Red, blue, black, tan, and green. If you need these, might be worth a call to check.
