thanks...I grew up watching these 80's monster trucks on t.v. I stopped watching when I got to middle school because of my involvement in sports and homework...this truck brings me back to my youth. I wish Traxxas didn't discontinue their Monster Jam line-up. I'm looking to get the Traxxas Grave Digger, even if it is only 2WD...

I had a video of all the different versions, including the first water crossing. Here's what I remember watching. Legend of Bigfoot - The Original Monster Truck: http://youtu.be/NAe_EdvMKEw

Foot 1 & 2 used 1979 bodies with black roll bars Foot 3 & 4 had the 1983 body and the chrome roll bars. Sadly the original 4 trucks, only Foot 1 remains. Now retired as a display truck on the 10 foot tall arctic terra tires

Big Foot wasn't the trucks name. It was Bob Chander's nick name because he couldn't keep his "Big Foot" off the thottle and thus kept breaking parts.
