After some research, I ordered a universal safety loop from Summit Racing. There are 4 parts to the kit, aside from fasteners, there are two support arms and two loop halves. The 1/4" mild steel is powder coated. The term universal, is kind of like, one size fits all, however; in reality, it meant I had some 1/4" steel to work with that I'd have to fashion to fit the TA undercarriage.

Fit was the biggest problem. The driveshift doesn't sit centered in the tunnel. It is off to the passenger side. This meant when I bolted the halves together, I had little clearance at the top between the shaft and to the passenger side. I spent hours on my back looking up trying to see if the universal safety loop would some how fit the space without modification. What made the time more difficult was a medical problem with my right shoulder--it was very painful and lacked full motion. As a result of the non fit and the bum shoulder, I put the installation on the back burner. The car sat and sat.

During the months of rehab, I'd crawl under the car, once in a while, and take another shot at fit, thinking that perhaps I had missed the obvious. Not true. Without making some serious adjustments to the loop, it would never be installed. Finally, months passed and with should therapy completed, I was ready to tackle the job. With determination, a heavy hammer, heat, and a vise, I bent and shaped the driver's side support to fit the convulted floor pan. To make the opposite side fit, required shortening the support arm.

The front bucket seats were unbolted and moved out of the way to permit the 3/8" x 2" bolts to be properly located and tightened to secure the safety loop in place. One thing I note is that the support arms must be located so the fasteners don't conflict with the seat, the inside rails they operate on, and their fasteners.

Below is a photograph of the installation taken minutes after it all bolts were tightened.
