The story

GT model with factory Sport Gauge option, but
speedo is replaced with 1973 120 MPH unit. I got it for free, built and installed the drivetrain for a friend who needed a car, but he needed a pickup due to his back problems. So I bought a 1990 F150 and traded it for the Ranchero. After many years of off and on use, I'm repairing problems, including the header panel, and will replace damaged passenger door. · handy_andy_cv64
