Big Bux was origionally owned and built by Bob White of Des Moines Iowa. I first met Bob at the first VPW Rally in 1987 and Debbi and I rode in the back of his truck on the first official trail ride on Gene Buch's farm. The following year Bob brought the truck to the rally and offered it for sale. It was purchased by the Iorio Bros. of NJ. It was later purchased by a gentleman friend of Dave Butler from Fairfield Ia.
As I remember, Bob was into sprint car racing at the time and needed to sell Big Bux to keep the car on the track. I have many great photos of the truck and Bob as well.
