Key Features:
- Engine: Ford 302ci (5.0L) V8 – a popular upgrade over the original inline-six or 352 V8 offered in 1966. Known for its reliability and strong aftermarket support, the 302 is a favorite among classic Ford enthusiasts. 84,827 miles shown on odometer.
- Transmission: 3-speed automatic (C4) – smooth shifting classic Ford transmission, but please note: this unit currently has slipping issues in drive gears and will require attention.
- Chassis: 2x4 short bed – highly sought after for its classic proportions and lighter, more agile feel compared to long bed models.
- Body: Primered, straight panels, ready for paint or patina finish.
- Interior: Functional, original-style cab ready for restoration or customization.
Specs & Model Details:
The 1966 F100 was the final year of the fourth-generation F-Series, known for its “Twin I-Beam” front suspension, durable steel construction, and classic styling cues like the horizontal bar grille. Factory options in 1966 ranged from the base inline-six to the 352ci V8, but this truck’s 302ci V8 offers improved performance and parts availability.

Project Status & Disclosure:
This F100 is a project truck. It runs and drives under its own power, but the automatic transmission slips in drive gears and will need repair or replacement. The body is in primer with solid panels, making it an ideal starting point for a restoration, custom build, or patina cruiser. Expect to address typical project needs: drivetrain, brakes, electrical, and cosmetics.
