Funny I never saw this thread before. Jaros44sr, your wood floor is the only wood floor Blazer pic I've found on the net. I'm sure more have been done. I just had a bunch of sheet metal bent up for the wood floor in my '71. As far as mounting a back seat, I plan to. As long as all the under bracing is done properly, it should be plenty safe. 3/4" quarter sawn white oak is very strong and is tied into the body very firmly with steel or aluminum bed rails and 6 5/16" bolts per rail. Factory 10 gauge steel plate that the original seat blets mounted to will be under there as well.
