I've been thinking about it, and I do believe at some point (probably early 70's) Ohio quit certifying cars that even had the hardware to "hang" patients from the ceiling.
I started in 76 and Ohio had already banned the hanging hardware. They were pretty intimidating about it too as I know ambulance operators would have them removed if they bought a car with them in it. I remember one time we got a loaner in with them and I expressed a desire to try out the hanging hardware and my boss threatened that I would be and "ex" employee if that happened. Oh and Mr. Steinberg, I thought my garage was bad, you really need to have a garage sale or something.
