I'm wondering if it's ever been done, and if not, how feasible might it be. I like the seating and cargo capacity of a suburban, but prefer the lighter, smaller, more fuel efficient aspects of the s10 blazer. Could one chop the rear end off a blazer, add a bench, extend the cargo area and have an 8 passenger blazer? Not a limo with 6 doors, or a long center glass, but literally a pint sized suburban.

 

i think anything is possible after the denali blazer project that was posted up on here

 

You'd have to raise the roof a fair bit to get enough leg room for a 3rd row of seats, and the 2nd row of seats doesn't fold down like in a normal SUV with 3 rows so getting in and out would be a real pain, but like Trobbins said, if you have the skills, time, money, and the desire to do it anything is possible.

 

You could always go old school wagon and put in rear facing seats.

 

+1 ^^^^
ditch the spare and cut the floor out then drop in a tub...there ya go old school wagon.

 

^ this

 

Any thing can be done! But keep in mind the professional coach builders almost always split the vehicle. It is SO much more sensible to split a chassis than to add additional frame to the rear! Many coach builders of the 60's found out the hard way when they added frame rail to the rear of a wagon and called it a hearse(Chevs/Buicks/Ponts/Olds)
The only true frame GM could build a heavy(6000+ lb) coach was almost always Cadillac(COPO'd with the commercial chassis) Professional Car Society for more info!

 

Isn't that called a Suburban?

 

so many diff ways you can go about this if need anything just ask

 

I would just buy another set of blazer rear seats from a junkyard and bolt them in the back of the trunk. you would have to climb over the first back row to get to them though. It will also be sitting higher then the front row, but i think this is the simplist way to do it.
You could also remove the back seats from the stock blazer, move them towards the back , and intall two seats (either bench or single bucket seats) which face the center of the vehicle, and you'll have seating like in a limo.
If you want to chop up your unibody go right ahead. I would avoid that unless you know what your doing.
