warning, Lots of pictures
In 1982, in Sulphur Louisiana, a man by the name Mart Williams built a Monster Truck called Southern Sunshine,

he crushed cars, pulled weight sleds, floated it across rivers, participated in the one of the first Monster Truck "Race" events, and he was by all reports an all around great guy, He also built a Cadillac body'd Monster Truck in 1983, called Cajun King.
in 1986 he died in a drowning accident, and his trucks were parked inside the family's shop and did not move for 23 years and 10 Months.
3 Months ago, a buddy of mine from the West Louisiana area who has been a Monster Truck fan all of his life was driving around in Sulphur and saw a set of rotting Monster Truck tires behind Billy Navarre Chevrolet's used Car lot, and he went to give them a look over. This is what he found
after some digging, he found the current owner, Mart's brother, Glenn Williams. they hit it off and soon the race was on to get these trucks back in working condition
