3rd row seat
I thought this Blazer on ebay with a third row seat was interesting although I'm not too sure how safe I'd feel in that back seat.

Re: 3rd row seat
Kinda neat. I would imagine legroom is pretty sparse now. The 3rd seat is pretty close to the back though. That being said, some of the full size wagons in the early 70's had rear facing seats that were pretty close to the back of the car and I have heard that you can get a newer Tahoe with a 3rd row. It must be pretty close to the back as well. Very nice Blazer though, I really like the colour.

Re: 3rd row seat
It looks like a fun sand toy.
My wife has an explorer with a 3rd row. It is about 10" from the top of the seat to the hatch but since you are enclosed, it doesn't feel like you are hanging out the back (or so I am told since I have never actually sat there).

Re: 3rd row seat
That's what I plan to do with mine, but I'm going to use aircraft seat tracks so I can remove it easily when I want to.
With my front bench, I'll be able to have 9 people in my Blazer. |

I noticed after I posted that this one has bigger wheel tubs and a narrowed second row seat.

Re: 3rd row seat
I like the 3rd row. I'd have 6 buckets.

Re: 3rd row seat
Is it me or are those seat belts 4" wide? And are the wheel covers in the back off a semi or trailer?

Aftermarket wheel tubs and racing harnesses.

Re: 3rd row seat
I love that roll cage. Do you have any specs on it for making another one you could send me?

Re: 3rd row seat
I saw a 72 Jimmy with a 69 front clip on ebay not too long ago with 6 buckets, wild ride. My pops had a station wagon with the pop up rear-facing seats back in the day, if we were unbuckled when he hit a bump we'd get tossed all over! I wonder how much force the folks in the 3rd row blazer would be dealing with? Would be a fun ride.

Re: 3rd row seat
Nobody on this thread owns the truck. I found it on ebay and posted because i though the third row seat was interesting. You could follow the link in the first post and ask the seller on ebay.
