Catalog photos from 1976 and 1983. How about that Safety Shell! Wish I had one of those.

Thought of posting these a while ago when I saw an oldies post. These are my two oldest sons, now 29 and 31. They look scary, but most cars didn't have seat belts! Check out the seat next to my son- his friend's seat just hooks over the back of the vehicle seat. Also note the homemade added seat pads that I sewed to make them less sweaty. Oh how things have changed! Even worse, I was considered a kook for making the kids use them and for making everyone in the car buckle up.
I just noticed that GM Love infant seat. We (not me, one of the other techs) "confiscated" one of these at a seat check event last month! It was still in use! Jean and I were shocked to see it.
I don't have one of those in the collection as common as they were!
I should have tried to snag it for you! The harness had already been cut by that time (we do that to all confiscated seats) but it was otherwise in incredibly good shape, if I remember correctly.
