There are moments in the world of classic vehicles that just feel special—and this is one of them. Right now at BIDR Auctions , we’re celebrating a truly rare occasion: two classic Ford F100 pickups, each representing a different era of American truck history, are hitting the auction block together.
Whether you're drawn to the rugged charm of the early 1950s or the hot-rod-ready appeal of mid-’60s Detroit steel, this is your chance to experience both ends of the F100 legacy. These trucks don’t just represent milestones in Ford’s storied timeline—they tell the story of how pickup culture evolved in America. And now, they’re both being offered to the highest bidder.
Now Live: The 1966 Ford F100 Short Bed Project — No Reserve
The first of our F100 duo is a 1966 Ford F100 —a short bed, rear-wheel-drive project truck that’s loaded with potential and offered with no reserve . Located in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, this classic wears its primer gray proudly, serving as a blank canvas for the builder, restomodder, or weekend wrench looking for a solid platform to bring their vision to life.
Under the hood is a 302 cubic inch V8, a popular and reliable engine swap known for its performance and aftermarket support. It’s paired with a C4 automatic transmission, which currently has some slipping issues and will require mechanical attention. But make no mistake—this truck runs, drives, and is ready for someone who wants to put in a bit of elbow grease and a lot of imagination.
The 1966 model marks the final year of the fourth-generation F-Series, known for Ford’s innovative Twin I-Beam front suspension and classic styling. With straight panels, a clean title, and just under 85,000 miles showing on the odometer, this short bed F100 has great bones for a shop truck, vintage cruiser, or even a full custom build.
Bidding is already live with just a few days remaining. For someone looking to turn a classic into a personal statement, this is the one.
Coming Soon: The 1953 Ford F100 50th Anniversary Edition — Survivor Quality
Just up the road in Jupiter, Florida, something even rarer is waiting in the wings. Starting November 19th, a beautifully preserved 1953 Ford F100 will roll onto the BIDR Auctions stage, and it’s already turning heads.
This truck isn’t a project—it’s a time capsule. With only 45,000 believed-original miles, this unrestored, matching-numbers survivor represents the very first year of the second-generation F-Series and the 50th anniversary of Ford trucks. That milestone alone makes this truck special, but its condition takes it to another level.
It still runs the original 239ci Flathead V8, mated to a classic 3-speed column-shift manual transmission, with the 6-volt electrical system intact. The black paint and honest patina speak to decades of gentle use and preservation, and aside from updated glass and a new fuel tank installed in 2014, it’s as original as they come—including the factory bench seat, gauges, and switchgear.
This 1953 F100 isn’t just for collectors—it’s for anyone who appreciates authenticity. It drives beautifully and offers a window into a simpler time, when trucks were built with steel, soul, and a sense of purpose. Whether you choose to preserve it as-is or carefully restore it down the line, this one belongs in a garage that understands what it represents.
A Rare F100 Double Feature—Only on BIDRAuctions.com
It’s not every day that two classic F100s—spanning more than a decade of design evolution—come to auction on the same platform. That’s what makes this moment at BIDR Auctions so exciting. Both trucks offer something unique: the 1966 is a builder’s dream with bold lines and a beefy V8, while the 1953 is a beautifully aged survivor that’s as honest as they come.
For Ford truck enthusiasts, this is more than an auction—it’s a celebration. A chance to own a piece of American automotive history, whether you're getting your hands dirty with a full project or preserving a museum-quality relic of the past.
