Probably not the most solid anchoring as that would more then likely bend some if I was hit really hard. But I figured something is better then nothing and may help over just a 2 point.
Ditto on my '41 Fordor. removed the upholstery from the post between the doors and added a steel plate to attach the 3 point belts. On a fordor there wasn't room between the seat and the doors for the retracters, so I mounted the retracters under the front seat. I used Juliano's 3 point belts. Used them for 15 yrs with no problems.
