Bob & Marilyn Chandler's BIGFOOT #9 was completed in 1990.  It debuted on February 10th in Dayton, Ohio with legendary BIGFOOT driver Jim Kramer at the wheel.  It is based on the same concept as BIGFOOT #8, but with a few variations and new innovations.  In 1994, it toured extensively through England and Malaysia, and even visited Brazil in 1998.  However, shortly after loading the truck into a container to be shipped back to the US, BIGFOOT #9 was lost in a customs debacle.  To this day, this fiasco has not been resolved.
