I'm betting it doesn't handle that well with those rockwells and that much sidewall.

It would be interesting to see how that truck developed over time. From small to big.


These are two of my favourite trucks to drool over lately,

according to the website, the chassis used to be the Ms. Bigfoot / Bigfoot Ranger truck.



Quote
Ms. Bigfoot was built in 1985, and was the last BIGFOOT vehicle to begin life as an actual factory production pickup truck.  The original chassis was extensively modified to enable it to handle 48-inch tires and the stresses produced by a 571 cubic inch, 1,000 horsepower, supercharged aluminum hemi engine.  This little truck was grossly overpowered.  The truck made its debut on July 4, 1985 at Jack Murphy Stadium in San Diego, California.  At the wheel the first time out was the monster truck sport's first woman driver, Marilyn Chandler.  In 1987, the truck received new graphics and paint and was renamed BIGFOOT Ranger.  In 1993 it made monster truck history for the last time when it became the first BIGFOOT truck ever sold for private, non-performing use.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm a big monster truck fan.  Mostly the old school stuff though.

I think the undercage of this blazer is from the red auto-x s10 read threw it.

I don't think it's the same chassis.  It says it's a tubular chassis, probably something similar to a nascar truck chassis.

It could pretty easily be one of the old chassis from the NHTA drag racing from a few years back.

If I could get it with the 3.5L turbo diesel and could afford it, I'd buy one.
