Grave Digger is a 1950 Chevrolet panel van monster truck owned by FELD Motorsports and created by Dennis Anderson. First built in 1982, Grave Digger became popular in the mid-80s for its spooky-themed paint scheme and Dennis's wild driving style.

This first truck was assembled from salvaged parts, including the body of a red 1952 Ford pickup truck. The truck received its name when Anderson, amicably retorting trash talking from his fellow racers about the truck's salvaged parts, said, "I'll take this old junk and dig you a grave with it."

He would take the truck to a local mud bog and the other competitors simply laughed, calling it a piece of old junk. Not one to back down, Anderson came back, telling them, "I'll take this old junk and dig you a grave." He then simply stenciled in Grave Digger on the doors, and thus the craze was born.
