From what I have read front seat belts were standard in 64 and rear belts were an option. My rear belts are black while my front belts are turquoise. My front belts have chrome retractors that seem to have the belts wrapped around them. I am missing the retractor on the passenger side and will post in the WTB thread once I know exactly what I need. Any input on this is appreciated.

I have a 65 Belvedere II that has the front seat belts and optional rear belts. They are both the same style and color.

Then I will have to find a set of turquoise rear belts. Do you have retractors on the front belts? I looked at a photo I took of the rear seat and the belts are of a later year and possibly brand.

My 64 had front belts only, no retractors at the base, and no plastic holders.
They did have the chrime slip on retractors.
 
I’m out of town now. I will be home next week and I can send some good pictures since they are out of car.
 
I went with Seatbeltsplus. Their hardware kits have the 7/16 thread bolts. 60" was too short for my '62 with bucket seats. 74" is what you want.

It did take around ten days before I received the shipping notice. They didn't have my color in stock. Belts came straight from the manufacturer in Florida. Good product for the money.

My 64 Sport Fury I had in the late 60s did not have retractors. Not 100% sure if it might have been an option or not.
 
You can buy the retractors new. I believe they have one version that the chrome arms are just slightly different from originals and the a slightly higher price one that is identical to OE.

They may have been added...
