There were no 3 point harnesses engineered for the GMC.  In that, as a tech, there is no crash data so I cannot by law install one.  You could but if there is an accident and someone does their homework, you may not be covered. Either way, its not worth taking a chance.  As someone pointed out, there's not much overhead structure to tis into.

First, I am not convinced that shoulder belts are actually a safety improvement due to the construction of the body shell.

That said, Kelvin has done it:
