Bearfoot 1, originally owned by KC's Fireworks, started its life as 'Generation X'. The chassis ran under multiple identities in the United States, such as 'Cyclops', 'King Kong', 'El Bandito', 'Monster Patrol' and 'Bearfoot', before being sold to KC's Fireworks and shipped to Australia. The truck was sold to Robert Stevenson, the owner of Ace Fireworks, and received a visual overhaul from the original Chevrolet S-10 to align with Stevenson's love of Speedway.
The truck received a new body, utilising a Ford replica fibreglass shell off a speedway Super Sedan race car that was then modified to suit the chassis, as well as new graphics to set the truck apart from its initial American design. It would compete in the First South Pacific World Finals, driven by Sherri Shafer. The truck went on to become the second Devil's Dodge in 2008.
