About the GMC Pickup
GMC's 1947-1955 trucks are known as the New Design series, followed by the Blue Chip trucks and the 1960-1966 generation.
Pre-Install Checklist
Check the floor anchor location in your GMC before ordering.
Good to Know
Hardware is not stated.
Order two singles or the pair kit for both seats.
Choose webbing to match your GMC's seat cover.
GMC's 1955 second-series trucks, called the Blue Chip line, brought a wraparound windshield and a V8 option to GMC pickups for the first time.
From 1960 to 1966 the GMC pickup shared Chevrolet's new cab but carried the GMC 305 V6 as its main engine, a big change from earlier sixes.
A single lap belt from Seatbelt Planet works well for a GMC driver who usually rides alone in a work truck or a show truck.
This single GMC belt has a reel that pulls the webbing back when unbuckled, unlike the fixed lap belts found in many older trucks.
Check the GMC floor under the driver side bench for rust before fitting the anchor, since cab floors on old trucks often need repair.
GMC trucks with bench seats can use two of these single belts or the matching pair kit sold by Seatbelt Planet.
Webbing colors can match the original GMC seat cover or contrast with the paint.
Seatbelt Planet also lists center lap belts for vintage GMC trucks.
The GMC name on the grille is what most separates these trucks from the Chevy versions, but the belt fit is similar.
A retracting lap belt keeps the GMC cab tidy because the strap pulls back into its reel near the floor.
GMC 1947-1955 trucks had a distinctive horizontal bar grille, while 1960-1966 GMC trucks used a wide grille with large GMC letters.
Seatbelt Planet lists this as a single belt, so a GMC with a bench for two will need two belts or the pair kit.
Many GMC trucks of this era were work trucks on farms, and a single driver belt is often the first upgrade owners make.
Webbing colors such as red, tan, gray and black suit GMC truck seats from these years.
Single GMC lap belts are also handy for owners who want to belt a second seat later.
