Dave,

All the squarebacks (68-) I have ever had, had 3 points available in all 
four seats.  I have seen a few cars where the rear upper points were still 
hidden under the vinyl (factory forgot to install the plastic bolt on one 
side!), but the nut was there when I went looking for it.

The lower rear points are just special reinforced body mounting screws.  
Early cars probably don't have the right reinforcing.
