The Copenhagen/Skoal Crusher
In 1985 my friend Seth Doulton was at the forefront of the monster truck scene.
He saw how popular the Bigfoot ford was , and decided to build a chevy to help promote his business, Golden State Pickup Parts.
He built a 58 chev cameo, with jaguar power, and got sponsorship from skoal tobacco products.
The monster truck thing took off, and by 1990 he had a fleet of chevy monster trucks.
there was the 58 cameo, 2 1972 chevys, a 1972 gmc , 2 73-87's, and the 1966 copenhagen/skoal crusher.
Seth stayed in the game for a few years, but when the monster trucks fell on a flat spot in the mid 90's (pre monster jam) , he sold off the fleet, and went back to selling and reproducing truck parts.
I am not 100% positive, but I think the 58, and the 66 ended up in japan.
