“Hank” is an honorary member of the Original Colorado Crew
Little else is known about “Hank’s” past. What is known is he had his factory original Motorcraft 2150 2V carburetor swapped for a 4V carburetor and Edelbrock high performance aluminum intake manifold, bigger cam, and now runs straight pipe headers. “Hank” also had dealer installed air conditioning, most of which was deleted. All of this was prior to “Hank” joining the crew.
“Hank” is a little rusty and sweaty, and is always happy to announce to the neighborhood with his open headers when he’s off for another adventure or show, hence in part why he is affectionately known as “the Rowdy Redneck”. “Hank” is planned for a frame off restoration to factory new with NOS, and numbers matched parts throughout, and maintaining as many original parts/components as possible. “Hank” is an honorary member of The Original Colorado crew only because he was delivered and sold new in Arizona, not in Colorado. Never the less, “Hank” is a “good ol’ truck, and a welcome addition to the “Crew”, and we enjoy all that “Hank” has to offer, and are looking forward to enjoying him in all his showroom new glory soon! For the last 50+ years “Hank” has been doing Truck stuff and will continue doing Truck Stuff after his restoration!
“Hank” hauls trailers, he doesn’t ride on them!
