    Ok, my seat belt in my 73 is squeezing the life out of me, what can I do to stop it? Every time I drive I have to stop and go pee.

    you could always update to the earlier model seat belts. there is no auto retract on the early ones.

    what a good idea!!! Just put the clip on the seat belt where it goes into the auto retract mechanism, so it will act as a stop.

    RE: where do I put it?

    Maybe yours is not like my '74. Mine has a retracting reel at the
    floor that cinches me in the seat as well as rubs the skin off of my
    neck. I have thought of using a 'clip' of some type to keep it from going back in so far.
