I saw a Holden Suburban today, nothing more than a rebadged Chevy Suburban they even kinda just welded the Holden badge on the front, with one odd twist. The dash is from a Chevy Blazer. I thought I was seeing things, at first. but there it was. So I did a little research ala Google and found this.

Check under - Features and design to see about the Blazer dash.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the dash is from the pre-1998 Blazer on these Holden Suburbans, am I correct?

Strange, and rare!

Need interior pic!!!

EDIT:

Heres a nice one:

clicky

Guessing, but was the small S-10 Blazer sold in other RHD countries? If so, maybe this was a parts-bin thing to do, just widen the smaller truck's RHD version of the dash for use Down Under.

I think this is Borger's attempt to ease some sort of transition (in his own mind and others, like us) from the possibly soon-to-be defunct Holden brand into "Chevrolet Asia-Pacific", or whatever.

Thanks for the interior shots Ted, thats exactly what I saw.

*choosing carefully* :AH-HA_wink:

ah, i love how the holden badge just bolts awkwardly to the grill... i wonder if you were to pull that off, a chevy badge might lay underneath
