Bob & Marilyn Chandler's BIGFOOT 3 was built in a record 66 days in the fall of 1983 and premiered at the Pontiac Silverdome in January, 1984 with dual 66" tires, on all four corners, which made the truck almost 20' wide! Marilyn Chandler used this vehicle to do one of the fastest car crushes ever for the show 3-2-1 Contact. This is also the BIGFOOT vehicle that appeared in the movie POLICE ACADEMY 2.
