My brother did that to our late 60s Valiant with bench seats. He even did the steering wheel. It looked just great but I found out why it wasn't such a great idea the first time I turned a corner. OTOH, it was a great safety feature since it limited your G forces to around .1Gs.

With no one wearing seatbelts in those days, you'd slide right across that SOB even at 1.5G!
 Vinyl GM buckets - forget it! You end up either between the seats(without a console), or in the passenger footwell, the car in a ditch or up a tree or on someone's roof, and you ejected into their swimming pool or under an oncoming Peterbilt. Not a rosey picture I reckon..
