Nice little video Nick. I think it does a great job of showing people this great piece of Attex history and what Matt is up against as a restoration project.

Very cool to know, Matt! I see some deals pop up on those plastic Tru-Trax every now and then on Craigslist. If I see anymore I'll be sure to forward a link to you immediately so we can see this beast move once again.

JP, the 13" Argo tracks that the Bigfoot came with as did the other Attexes and Argos from that period are different from the Tru-Trax. I have talked to the gentleman that owns Tru-Trax and his tracks are/were narrower than the ones used by Argo and Attex at that time. What Matt ideally will be looking for is 13 inch wide track links. Some will say nothing on the track link and others will say Argo on the link. Maybe Nick can post a couple pictures of the track links I gave Matt so people know what he is looking for. Also if anyone knows how to contact member L.D.Bruce please let him know Matt is looking for tracks. L.D. had a set of tracks for sale at one time. I have sent a PM to L.D. with no response.

Looks like a very interesting piece to save. I hope with a little help, Matt can find the energy to make it happen. Keith.

That's not an AATV, It's an AATPartyPontoon. I know there's room on there for a keg, and a few of JP's friends.

Absolutely! Let's make it happen.......I can see this being a perfect machine for another 6X6World bumper sticker photoshoot.

I think we still need to find Matt a couple 16hp briggs IC engines with drive clutches and some track. Then I bet he would supply the keg.

And I'll supply the girls.....they'll only be wearing bumper stickers and after that keg starts getting low, I'm sure that would change!

While trying to find some 60's Argo photos on our old computer backup, I stumbled upon these:

Those old Bigfoot pictures rock Nick! Thanks for posting them. I hope you guys can get this machine back up and running for people to see.
