@@phonypony5.0 no, but none of the actual monster jam driver's use their own trucks, hence why you no longer see names like captains curse, Escalade, backwards Bob, air Force afterburner, Etc.
What I found was this: Bigfoot 7 is a Ford monster truck built by Bigfoot 4X4 in 1988 specifically, at the time, for use in the movie "Roadhouse". The truck was the final leaf spring built truck from Bigfoot 4X4 before the iconic Bigfoot 8 was created in 1989. The truck is currently a display piece on 10 foot tall tires in Florida. The truck is almost identical to Bigfoot 5. The truck was first built in 1988 specifically for the 1989 film "Roadhouse". The scene starring Bigfoot 7 depicts the truck demolishing a car dealership, including four station wagons. This scene was shot in a single take and cost $500,000 to shoot. Also, although the truck today has the 10 foot tall tires like Bigfoot 5, the truck had regular tires from when it was first built in 1988, and during its "Roadhouse" appearance, all the way to 1995. After its tire change, it became a display piece and sat outside of the Race Rock Cafe in Orlando until it closed down. It was then moved to Fun Spot USA in Kissimmee, Florida, where it currently resides.
Bigfoot 7 I believe Mister Bob Chandler started using a type of nitrogen charged shock on that one if I recall right and the truck was lighter then BigFoot 2 3 4 and 6 but the shocks weren't as high Tech as the ones on Bigfoot 8 or gave as much as travel yet because the way the shocks were mounted with the counter leavers the suspension had a lot of body roll going into turns Bigfoot 9 seem to have the same but not quite as much but Bigfoot 10 perfected. It. But Bigfoot 11 and 13 and 14 further Advanced what 10 had and much more giving greater suspension travel at the Rear because your landing on the rear most of the time you need more travel there but Big Foot 18 took it to a new level giving greater suspension travel at the back and front which I believe that same shock setup is being used on the majority of Bigfoots and new Monster Trucks coming out to this day nothing like a new suspension on a Monster Truck Bigfoot tested Bigfoot approved a Big Loveing thanks to Mr Bob Chandler Family and all the Crue for making my Most favorite machines in the World Monster Trucks.
Bigfoot 6 and 7 were heavy trucks, definitely were not lighter than the previous Bigfoot trucks. Shocks on Bigfoot 8 were a bigger version of the nitrogen shocks that Bob had came across.
Did you mean Bigfoot 12, cause there isn't a Bigfoot 13 and #12 is similar to 8 and 9. Bigfoot 12 was actually supposed to be Bigfoot 10. I guess somewhere between 90 -91 Bob decided to redesign the chassis and suspension.
The Man...the Legend.👍
he's the man the myth the legend. I'd love to see him drive around again one one. I wonder if he test drives them still

And I live in Connecticut And I am also a 52 years old and I've always loved big trucks
Wow. Bob Chandler looks the same as he did in those old Bigfoot in Action videos I used to watch in the mid 90's.
Does anybody watching this in 2019 know where one could get the chrome in cab roll cage that was in Bigfoot one?
Here's Bigfoot's website with contact info! bigfoot4x4.com
Bo were you on the radio in Albuquerque in the late 80's? Power 105?
TaosDad31 close, I was on country station KIIM FM in Tucson in 87’ for a short while.
Bo Matthews oh man your voice is so familiar. I used to listen to “smokin’ Bo Baby Matthews in the late 80’s I was certain it was you.
How are you u Bo haven't talked to you since you had your Lasik surgery at filutowski eye institute
Christopher Williamson wow a blast from the past. Great to hear from you. Are you still with Doctor?
It was my grandmother that worked for Dr filutowski I was her grandson the one the saying you at the truck pulls when you broke your truck
@@christopherwilliamson1756 it's been awhile but now it's all coming back to me now! LOL!
Sue broughton is my grandmother I'll let her know that I got to talk to you it was good to hear from you again
Bigfoot too OG for monster jam.
Bigfoot also didnt want to sellout to monster jam thats why the company doesn't compete
would you join monster jam if they wanted everything you have worked for
@@lorrystagg6578 is monster jam rigged ?
@@phonypony5.0 It's not rigged but the company that runs Monster Jam owns all their trucks. Bigfoot didn't want to sell.
@@phonypony5.0 no, but none of the actual monster jam driver's use their own trucks, hence why you no longer see names like captains curse, Escalade, backwards Bob, air Force afterburner, Etc.
Bad ass big foot cool
Why doesn’t anyone ask bob about what happened to Bigfoot #7

ziptab it was rumored that Bob tried to buy the truck back after race Rock closed is that true?
ziptab

Interesting axels. That’s a big step up.

Amazing video! Do you have a version that's not sped up at the end? That BBF sounds amazing

👍👍👍👍👍
Would love to see Bigfoot get into monster jam and really show those guys who the real king of monster trucks is!!!
JPStuehrenberg Bob Chandler (Big Foot) & Dennis Anderson (Grave Digger now retired) 😭 Are the two best icons.
You said it, loved watching those two go against each other, they always put on a great show!!
