Nice job! Great idea about getting some from a car in the junkyard that isnt a mustang. Thanks for the pictures.

I think the trick there is that 67 up had the shoulder harness mount already installed under the headliner, even if the car didn;t come with shoulder belts. We used it on the 70 model and bought a belt from a street rod supplier. I just felt aro8und uder the edge of the liner and punched a hole in the right place. You may have to fabricate something for a 65.

Here is how I did it on my 66' (with pictures.) Your 65' would be the same. Just make the roof support washer/nut combo and fish it up the sail panel with a coat hanger.

Good Luck!!!!
