We just had to save something from the old killer. The door logo and lettering are all painted on at the Possum Killer Garage. |
Possum Killer
Truck lost in accident
Truck lost in accident
Tragedy struck as the Possum Killer, with Jr driving
was struck by a Sheriffs Deputy from the rear and was
destroyed. The motor and front cap were the only
salvageable items. The most important thing is Jr. was
not hurt or his passenger. The old girl took a strong hit
at over 80 miles per hour. The deputy was at fault and
we are now in process of building a new truck to
replace her salvaging and using what parts we can.

Well this is it the truck that
started it all the one, the
only, the original POSSUM
KILLER. It's kinda amazing
that it's even still around. We
built this truck about 20
years ago and actually built it
as a extremely nice high end
show truck at the time. NOT
a TRAILER QUEEN just a nice
street rod with lots of billet.
Then along come kids, so we
ended up selling it to get a
bigger family size street rod,
but we had always wished
that we still had it. About 3
years ago our wish came true
and we found it sitting on a
used car lot and bought it
back. It was in sad shape....

In traditional hot rod
fashion we scuffed it
down, put a coat of black
satin paint on it, a set of
hot rod style flames and
now it is the ultimate
shop truck So there ya
have it, the story of the
famous legendary truck
that has been tagged
POSSUM KILLER
May the legend continue
for many more years!

Its finally here, the return of possum killer. Bigger and badder. Now lets see the sherrif catch this one. This time
equipped with a 396 big block and she'll flat move. We saved and reused as many parts as possible from the
original including the front cap and....,well thats about it the rest was junk. We went with a little different look for
the new truck. We did not want an exact copy of the original but we did want the same basic style and we are
very pleased with our outcome.
