If you’ve been waiting for the right classic truck project to come along, this is your moment. Live now on BIDR Auctions is a 1966 Ford F100 short bed project that checks all the right boxes for collectors and custom builders alike — and best of all, it’s being offered at NO RESERVE.

With just two days left until the auction closes, this F100 is already attracting attention — but there’s still time to throw your hat in the ring and make it yours.

The 1966 F100 represents the final year of Ford’s fourth-generation F-Series—a time when trucks still looked tough, drove strong, and were built with simplicity and soul. This particular example, located in Jupiter, Florida, is a two-wheel drive, short bed model that’s become one of the most desirable setups among classic truck enthusiasts.

Under the hood, it’s powered by a 302 cubic inch V8—a well-known and widely supported upgrade over the original inline-six or 352 V8 options of the era. This engine is known for its reliability, parts availability, and strong aftermarket scene, making it the perfect powerplant for someone planning a full custom build or just a dependable cruiser.

It’s paired with a C4 automatic transmission, which is currently slipping in drive gears — so a bit of mechanical work will be needed. But the truck starts, runs, and drives under its own power — and that’s a strong head start for any restoration or restomod project.

A Solid Foundation for Your Next Custom Build

This F100 is more than just a tired old truck — it’s a blank canvas waiting for the right hands. The body has already been stripped down and finished in gray primer, giving you the freedom to go in any direction — fresh paint, patina, shop truck graphics, or something entirely custom.

The short bed configuration is particularly sought after for its classic proportions and better handling compared to long bed versions. The straight panels and clean lines make it ideal for a quality finish, and the overall structure is solid — making this a true opportunity to build a head-turner without starting from scratch.

Inside, the truck retains its original-style cab. The interior is simple, functional, and ready to be restored, upgraded, or completely reimagined.
