A transformable mechanics creeper is disclosed having an elongated creeper frame which includes a base assembly and a seat assembly interconnected by an interlinking connector frame pivotally connected to the base assembly and the seat assembly. The interlinking connector frame has a first pivot position in which the seat assembly is positioned generally in horizontal alignment with the base assembly for defining a creeper position, and a second pivot position in which the seat assembly is positioned generally in vertical alignment with the base assembly to define a seating position wherein the seat assembly and the base assembly support a worker in an upright seating position. A slidable roller frame supports the seat assembly and provides mobility in the creeper position. In the seat position, the roller frame may be retracted for a small footprint or extended for increased support or a utility shelf. An extendable roller frame assembly slidably carried by said creeper frame having a retracted position when the interlinking connector is in said first pivotal position defining said seat position. The roller frame assembly has an extended position when said interlinking connector is in said second pivotal position for supporting said seat assembly in said creeper position. At least one wheel is carried by said roller frame assembly providing mobility for said creeper in said creeper position. The roller frame assembly may also be maintained in the extended configuration to provide a shelf for a tool tray and the like when the creeper is in the seat position.
