Here are a few more of Thunder Beast

the first is of Thunder Beast and Mega Toy Jeff's Other truck and the white truck is called Vista Price Buster and was owned by a VW dealer ship and driven by none other then Jeff Bainter and was later sold to a truck dealer and then the current owner Jeff Strand bought it in 1986 who has now repainted it and it has a new name "Thunder Beast". Later Jeff bought a set of 66s and mounted them on Thunder Beast the picture of the truck and Jeff beside it. It's still on 2½T Rockwell's, the truck would later go under a major transformation with brand new frame, axles, t-case to a full size monster truck. the transformation was from 1986-1991 and from 1991 to current date its still driven and owned by Jeff Strand of Kalispell, Montana
