    I feel like being crushed by #6 and Fastrax at the same time. I'm happy. Never heard those BBFs scream with such anger! And i loved the footage inside Fastrax; always wanted to know the belly of the beast..

    If this is July 3-4, and Roadhouse firming was on July 25, that puts this event before the movie shoot. Based on the shock arrangement, rollbar, and lack of artwork on the bedsides I'm gonna say this is Bigfoot 7 with some doors swapped in from another truck for these shows leading up to the Roadhouse shoot, where they put plain doors on the truck. Regardless, there's nothing like that roar of a late '80s Bigfoot engine. Such an amazing sound!

    According to our schedule, Road House was filmed on May 16, May 25 and June 3, with the 16th of May being #7's debut.

    @@bigfoot4x4 The Roadhouse video on your channel though lists the filming as July 25? kzread.info/dash/bejne/n4GrvNSHpdLeg9I.html Definitely conflicting info somewhere. Regardless, the context of the truck itself definitely suggests this is Bigfoot 7, as 6 did not have inboard shocks (inside the leaf springs) or a short-legged roll bar during this period.

    Well, not sure that date is correct either, as that is not on our schedule from that era. I actually do show one more date for the filming of Road House, that being July 18-19, but shows BF6. The July 25 date that you refer to is what was on the BETA tape from the filming of the dealership scene. So....not sure what is accurate...

    Never saw 6 with the short roll bar. Man that engine sounds exceptional for the smaller 2 carb model. I like the Ford valve covers on the chevy engines. I bet that thing was wild on 2 injected engines.

    Very cool. This must have been very early for Fastrax. No graphics and it still had a wheel for steering as opposed to the levers. Was Bob driving? Also, I always thought #6 had 3 carbs, different engine?. Thanks very much for posting these AWESOME classic BIGFOOT clips. Still and always the King of the monster trucks.

    Rare to see Fastrax with the steering wheel, I always thought they changed it to the sticks as soon as they bought it, I think motors that were in there when they got it were Chevy and they changed them to 2 fords, thought thats when they changed to back to the sticks

    I take it this was right after it was bought since it still has the Chevy engines? I've got nothing against Chevy. It just made me chuckle when I saw the distributors on the wrong end of the engine but I see the Ford logo on the valve covers. .
