      I would have been happy to have lived in that neighborhood. I could honestly say I can watch BIGFOOT in action from my back yard. I would have tried getting a job at BIGFOOT 4x4. Even if it had been just a tire n lube guy, it would have been a foot in the door so who knows.

      I’m sure they were, I know I would have been and judging by the guy or person running towards the fence between the mobile home park and the Bigfoot Headquarters @ 5:30 in the video it seems like if a truck was fired up someone was running over to check it out.

    Great footage. I was lucky enough to see 8, 9, 10, 11, 14, and 15 in their debut years. 11 was my favorite with that teal Bigfoot body. Love seeing this behind the scenes stuff.

      After seeing the Bigfoot 8 restoration recently it would be cool to see #11 get restored back with the Wildfoot paint scheme and colors. I'm quite sure that it's chassis is still sitting behind the shop somewhere.

    Hey Bob! I'm sure that within the Bigfoot archives of video footage that there's gotta be video similar to this of Bigfoot 14. Especially being that it's the 1st of the Bigfoot race trucks to not utilize the rear cantilevers. Love the behind the scenes videos. Thanks for sharing and posting this type of footage! I definitely enjoy watching the older footage just as much as the new.

      I bet that if Bigfoot was still running the Ford Hemi motors they be giving those Dodge trucks a lil bit more run for there money. Especially now that Bigfoot is running a better transmission than what they were using during the Penda Series era.

      8,9and 10 did this as well but #11 had the greatest rear wheel travel of any Bigfoot at that time. That's one of the reasons along with the Boss 429 heads is why the called the truck in 93 Wildfoot.

    Could someone for Bigfoot answer me this question? The chassis & suspension design of Bigfoots #'s 8,9,10,11 and even #12, plus the chassis's for 14, 15, 16 & 20 are all Bob Chandler's designs? I've been in a debate with a individual on a different channel saying that Dan Patrick designed a built those trucks. Was claiming that Bob was taking credit for Dan's designs, when if I'm not mistaken it was Bob's designs and Dan was the guy who made them real as I remember hearing Dan say that his own self.

      Thanks for the reply back. The chassis's for #'s 8-16 have been awesome and have proven themselves throughout the years, just look at the fact that #'s14 &15 are still competing. Bigfoot 18's chassis started a trend of chassis's that were out of the somewhat normal style of Bob's designs, but #'s 18-21 are some great trucks. I can only imagine what other designs Bob had for Bigfoot that never came to life. Definitely can't wait to see what in store for for #22. Thanks to Covid that project from what I heard has been pushed back.
