  I'm totally serious. In the not too far off future I'm going to buy a kickass muscle car and I want to be able to drive it as often as I can.

  I think they'd laugh tho. A poorly designed seatbelt or airbag could be more detrimental than none at all.

  no one would want the liability if something went wrong, and no one makes universal airbags...under what conditions when should it fire? where should the firing sensor be?

  it would never happen iMo

  • you could always get a 3 4 or 5 point harness system...ull be fine with that– Machuse

  They would kick your arse. I wonder the same thing about getting a 68 Firebird converted to hybrid.

  • convert it to burn bio diesel– Llyod1/3

    That would be easier…– Mr1002/3

    and then just hang around fried chicken joints to fill up.– mrdobolina3/3

  that's the whole thrill of driving cars like that, no modern safety features.

  a shop will do anything you are willing to pay for, but you would de-value the car

  • I don't care about the value...just about how much fun I can have with it– Llyod

  yea man as a general rule you dont take a car like you presented and add airbags n such. You would be killing it....

  Its like taking the most amazing print design you have ever seen and replacing the main font with brush script.

  DONT NOT DO IT.

  Good choice in car, hope you get it. :)

  I can't find any examples of retrofitting of airbags, apart from a scheme to supply them for some post-86 models. They are an integral part of the engineering development of the car, not something you just bolt on.

  I rarely ever use seat belts in cars. I think about it after a few miles.

  • mainly because of "click it or ticket"– mrdobolina

  Definitely get the racing harness. Once you lure an unsuspecting lady into the passenger seat (if riding lap doesn't work out) you can offer to buckle them in.
