In 1979 he added rear steering to his truck.The truck then appeared in what would be it's first film role, the film was the 1981 film "Take This Job And Shove It". It's first car crush was in 1981, in a St Louis cornfield. It was taped on video and shown in Bob Chandlers 4x4 shop to promote his business. Eventually a promoter persuaded Bob to crush some cars in front of a crowd. This took place in April 1982 in front of thousands of people, in Jefferson City, Missouri. The rest is history.
