The story

Timewise Rally Speedometer - car used for vintage car rallys (e.g. The Great Race)

The car was originally purchased in Wyoming where it was used on a ranch as a working vehicle. It has many dents and digs, but the car was well maintained and the paint is worthy of the survivor it is.

The car was purchased by a Massachusetts couple on a trip in 2002 and they drove the Ranchero home where they used it for local car shows and parades.

In 2012 a friend in VT sent me a note that his friend in MA had a car she was looking to sell and, if interested, I should contact her. I did, and went up to see the car and hauled it back home to NY the following week.

Since then the Ranchero has participated in 4 Great Race rallies and many weekend rallys. We'll be doing the 2020 Great Race from Austin,, TX to Greenville, SC this summer. The Ranchero has never failed and is the star of our team. — kcreary
