Grave Digger on the Racing Track

The first chassis of the famous Monster Truck – Grave Digger was a red Ford pickup truck from 1952 that was later replaced by a silver-blue Ford panel truck in 1951 and was powered by a Chevrolet engine.

Since then Dennis Anderson was not shy and like to have just one competition with the phrase “I’ll take this old junk and dig you a grave.” and cheering his words into deeds, had he had gone too fast for the name of his “junk” – Grave Digger

Switching to the Monster Trucks, we owe a happy coincidence. Should be at a show at the Monster Trucks and Mud Bogger participate, the announcement appeared a monster truck does not. And it gave to Dennis Anderson to take his place and to scrap cars, since he had already had the tractor tires on it. The organizers adopted the proposal and Dennis Anderson came to the public very well. Dennis Anderson had tasted blood and wanted more.

The logical consequence – he built Grave Digger to a monster truck and gave him his first famous black coat of paint cemetery. He won a lot of viewers hearts as it despite the lack of sponsor support, everything was destroyed and the truck very often with savage actions.Grave Digger Monster Truck rose to become the most popular and so it happened that the USHRA Monster Jam apply to each event and wanted to have a Grave Digger at the start. Therefore, until today a total of 22 Grave Digger were built, of which seven are active on tour. As Dennis Anderson of course can not perceive all events, there are now a whole fleet of Grave Digger drivers.
