Remember when monster trucks were, ...well, ...trucks?! I do. I miss those times. For a special few people that time continues on. How many dentside monster trucks do you remember? Here's a few to jog your memory. Enjoy! Feel free to add any I missed.

 

Oh, yeah, this one. I think he was pretty famous at one point.



...and then there's this guy. I hear he's still lurking around here.

 

One more. Not technically a monster truck, but Earthquake and I sure had some fun times.

 

i have always wanted to build a bigfoot tribute truck. that truck and another reason are why i like this old trucks so much.

 

maybe the reason i sub-consciously want to lift my truck and buy huge tires!?!

i think the old monster trucks did to us what fast'n'furious does to the kids now-days with theyre lil hondas and all! AM i RIGHT? lol

 

You may be on to something there!

 

I thought so! but we are Wayyy cooler and actually fast...wait AND furious. nothing fits that definition more than the old bigfoot!

 

x2 on the fast and furious!
I've never thought about it that way! Although I'm only 17 but I was raised with trucks not ricers...I'm sticking to my roots!

 

That last picture is my old truck. Can you guess where the inspiration came from to run over two cars?

I keep kicking around the idea of building a monster truck for real. I keep an eye out for the parts. If I get enough of a deal, it may just happen.

Then it'll be a running advertisement for the shop, parade cruiser, maybe even a part time ride truck.

 

They did, its a new style chassis and a old school 79 body, all fiberglass and looking good.
