I know I was just reading about the Hang 10 cars, but I don't remember where.
Anyway, a beautiful 74 Hang 10 car was at a local show today, 360 4bbl and the Hang 10 official surfboard too!!
There was an optioned out 70 V-code GTX, and my 70 V-code Roadrunner, and more!
Here's the Hang 10 car:

And the beautiful GTX with a FULL fender tag for sure!

More pictures of the V code car? Like under the hood? And everywhere. lol
 
One of how many?

...and 2 in the same place.
 
Years ago I found a hang ten that looked just like that, but a slant 6 three speed build. Could have had for 400. Took the new son-in-law to look at it. Tried to talk him into a investment/project. Instead, he spent his money on a hacked Playstation 2 that would play downloaded bootleg games. Daughter did leave the clown a few years later.

"The" V-code car?:poke::D
My yellow V-code Roadrunner? Or the Blue V-code GTX?
I can accommodate you with more pix of my not stock engine, but those are the only pix of the blue GTX I got, so far. He actually bought 3 B-Bodies, the beautiful, highly optioned B-5 Blue GTX, and 2 other B-5 blue Roadrunners, a 68 and a 69. I get the feeling that I'll be seeing him again, maybe at the Battleship Alabama in a couple of weeks.

Now THAT I can help with :thumbsup::thankyou:
I'll start with a video:
Big Block, check...Choppy cam, check...
Open Doug's electronic cutouts, well YEAH!!

Here's a pic from the side I just took to show someone else who is interested in the CVF Wraptor serpentine belt and accessories system and Cold Case radiator what the available space looks like. I added AC and power steering vs the factory setup. I'm about to put the factory fan shroud back on, to help the 18" low profile flex fan do its job, and I have 2 SPAL 10" pusher fans on the front of the AC condenser.

Driveshaft safety loop, Strange Engineering chromoly steel everything from the slip yoke to the pinion yoke, solid 1350 U-joints and the driveshaft too. Dual wideband O2 sensor system for the Innovate Motorsports 2 channel gauge. I have 2 O2 modules from Dakota Digital that once I install them, the A/F ratio will display on the DD RTX series dash or on my smartphone or tablet, so while I'm under the hood tuning the 6bbl, I can monitor the air fuel ratio.

Speaking of the RTX series dash, it's brand new and looks JUST like the factory gauges, until it has power.

Interior shows the Procar buckets that replaced the factory bench seat, and a custom console with the original shifter. The little white box above and in front of the shifter is my HitMaster launch control. I had to switch to a hydraulic throwout bearing and McLeod RXT dual disc clutch to make it work, now and....

....for when I swap in the 6bbl topped 541 cu in Bill Mitchell aluminum block:

Factory Dana 60 w/Strange diff cover. Smith Racecraft Assassin Traction bars, Calvert split mono leaf springs and sliders, and reinforced front leaf spring mounts. I also have USCT subframe connectors and front and rear torque boxes welded in. The front suspension has been replaced with QA1 tubular K-member and all other components except for the upper control arms which are SPC, offering greater range of adjustment. I also have 6 piston manual Wilwood disc brakes on all 4 wheels, 12.88 front and 12.18 rear, line lock.

That 360 hang 10 (or one like it) used to make the rounds here in FL.

I've since seen a couple.

Lots of 225 hang 10's.

Not seen too many with a 318 for some reason.
