Farmer Bill passed away last summer.
I Never saw it posted here, but here's his obit

definitely one of the finest, most enthusiastic Slicksters I ever, ever met. A great loss, in my mind to us.
Not sure who he willed the F-100 XL to but I'm sure he made sure it ain't going to Barrett-Jackson
long live Farmer Bill's presence

Is that the color of the truck ?
I always thought it was more of a white
Very cool you got to see in person

Pat it was a light beige-y colour, but I think he repainted it (against everybody's advice), maybe a hair darker the second time. The F-100 XL letters look smaller in the top picture than when I sat in it

Looks like it may be a repaint from beltline moulding down.Definitely smaller lettering, and the addition of Bill's name.
