Lowback seats without a headrest are illegal in a car if high seats were required in the year the car was built. Which they are, since 1969 (1970 model year).

It's considered safety equipment, having to do with rear impacts and whiplash protection. Considered a head restraint. Of course most people with seats with an adjustable head rest never have it positioned correctly, but that is the law.

I think having airbags in the car, specifically having a big bulky steering wheel w/ airbag makes the car look like a granny car. I'm going to switch out my steering wheel with one from a '67 Mustang because it looks more retro and hope I don't get in a wreck and need the airbag.

If lookin' like a "granny car" might make the difference between me walking away from a wreck or not, I don't mind

If you want retro, try the 1970 seats. Highback and they looked good. This is the deluxe version:



or the standard highbacks I had in my 70:
