My dad collects antique cars, he has to add after market seatbelts to a lot of them.

Had a friend with a mostly accurate restoration '68 1/2 fastback Mustang, and just about everyone begged him to put shoulder belts and headrests in it. It was popularly called the Whiplash Machine. He didn't drive crazy, either, but it was a fairly abrupt car.

My dad had a '59 vw bus, without seatbelts. He told me it was illegal to put seatbelts in, because there were no hardpoints on the seats. I don't know how true that was. Se non e vero, e ben trovato

Not true. It's a twisted way of saying even if he had installed them, it still wouldn't meet safety codes.
