    I don't know why. But I do know Ford lost a lawsuit because of the '74 seat belt system design. Also I see they was a change with wiring after Jan 15,1974...something about the center front seat belt not having to be buckled to start engine if a passenger was sitting in the middle of the seat . I also know that the manual transmission has a switch screwed into the transmission case that has something to do with the seat belt system.
