RealTruck Inc., a global aftermarket product and accessory brand, and a digital destination for truck, Jeep®, Bronco®, and off-road enthusiasts, is collaborating with automotive designer and artist, Chip Foose, known for his car-customization reality television series “Overhaulin,” for a one-of-a-kind truck build that will be unveiled during a live stream broadcast at this year’s SEMA (Specialty Equipment Market Association) Show in Las Vegas, and auctioned off at Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale, Arizona in January 2025. Foose is building a 2021 F-150 at Foose Design Headquarters in Huntington Beach, California, and bringing his signature design vision to life by blending innovation with RealTruck’s lifestyle. The build and auction will benefit The Progeria Research Foundation, which is committed to finding treatments and the cure for Progeria, a rare, genetic “premature-aging” disease that accelerates mortality in young patients. “It’s been an exciting time working with the automotive mastermind over the last month on this unique build that will bring his vision, and automotive design to life in this highly anticipated collaboration,” said RealTruck Inc. Vice President of Marketing Lee Riser. “Over the years, he has made automotive dreams come true and we’re looking forward to being a part of his legacy and giving back to a foundation committed to finding a cure for a devastating disease affecting young patients.” The truck will be outfitted in premium RealTruck parts and accessories including a RealTruck Traction Recovery Winch, a Rugged Ridge Traction Recovery Kit, RealTruck Go Rhino Rear and Front Bumpers, Husky Liners RVL Fender Flares, and more. “I’d like to thank RealTruck for this opportunity and their generosity,” said Chip Foose. “The team at Foose Design will bring the design concept to life with all proceeds from this customized truck going to The Progeria Research Foundation, a charity that is near and dear to my heart. This truck could be yours and we’re looking forward to unveiling it at SEMA this year.” Once unveiled and displayed in the RealTruck booth at this year’s SEMA Show, the truck will be one of the featured charity auctions during Barrett-Jackson, the world’s greatest collector car auction in Scottsdale, Arizona, in January 2025. At auction, 100 percent of the hammer price will benefit Foose’s personally selected charity – The Progeria Research Foundation. Foose is near and dear to this charity and in support of finding the cure for the disease because of his youngest sister Amy who died of Progeria at the age of 16 years. “We’re honored to have been chosen as the charity of choice in this amazing auction and thank the RealTruck and Chip Foose team for the support,” said Audrey Gordon, President and Executive Director of The Progeria Research Foundation. “This initiative will bring awareness and vital funds to help us power breakthrough research toward the cure for Progeria. On behalf of the children and their families, we are deeply grateful for this opportunity.” The official truck unveil will take place during SEMA Live on Tuesday, November 5 from 11:30 - 11:50 a.m. PST at RealTruck’s Booth #50027.
