TV crush: Farmtruck from Street Outlaws

ByDarren O

My new favorite thing on reality TV just so happens to be a 1970, C-10 Chevy pickup truck called Farmtruck. It’s the labor of love of street racer Sean Whitley and it’s quickly adding to an already existing legion of fans thanks to its appearance on Discovery’s new show, Street Outlaws. Billed as “the ultimate sleeper,” Farmtruck might be the greatest road example of not judging a book by its cover. It’s designed to look like the truck your grandpa drove; with a rusted out paint job, dents, a camper shell and license plate that reads, “ZZZZZ.” Check out photos of the devil in disguise, videos of Farmtruck in action, a brief history on how Sean came upon her and some info on his loyal shotgun rider, Louise.

To quote the five-time MMA champ, “The first guy I saw, I just kicked him in the face. Then I punched the other guy.” See the video that proves, in the most decisive way, that crime doesn’t pay!
