Update: I never expected this many views. I guess people really like this car :D I certainly do. I made an updated version btw: ua-cam.com/video/sfAi2DxGxF0/v-deo.html
@@451dskots88 My grandfather used to street race back in the late 50s. He had a 1953 Oldsmobile Rocket 88 that was called The Rockin' Rocket. Apparently, he was undefeated in eastern Los Angeles County, specifically Covina, San Dimas, Pomona, La Verne, etc. This went on until a then brand new Pontiac Ventura beat him twice. He later found out who the driver was, when he saw that very car sitting in his girlfriend's driveway. It was my grandmother who had beaten him on those two occasions.
I personally didnt do that one, although I made the one in the updated version of the video. You simply take a square decal, choose a colour and place it on top and sides accordingly. The size option allows you to morph it into stripes, and then you just add the thin one on all sides as well. :)
@@devonvanaernum I made it myself because noone else did, unfortunately, I used a graphic from the search for the R/T africa stickers behind the front wheels so I couldnt share it :/
@@wanted.2480 Very well done. It's one of my favorite cars on the internet right now. I watched the video with his son Gregory, an fell in love with the car because of the rarity of it. And being that because I lost my father last year.
Can't believe someone made a video game out of this story....hope the wife or his kid got the Intellectual Property rights payment for this. I'd sue if I didn't.
@@robertl955 but still....it's very identity specific to a real car and a real person who may have passed away but his family still has the car and I would think the Copyright rights to the identity of the car. No ?
@@ARCOFJUPITER That would be extremely difficult to get any money in court. Thats like me creating a character in the UFC game that looks like hulk hogan and putting up a video of me playing as him and title it hulk hogan in the ufc. The couldn't sue me for it. Not to mention the people that own the black ghost are very nice and wouldn't stoop to that level. There is one car family that sues like crazy over any likeness, I don't think it was shelby but it was someone else. I'm completely forgetting their names now but they sue anyone trying to use their name on anything.
@@robertl955 and so....it's a matter of being on different levels....I can't take something ultra famous like a transnational corporate logo and put it on a car I create in GTA and re using that to make money without them sueing me for it and the family of the black ghost would not because....they aren't at that level ? I'll put it to you this way....Tom Clancy used the term Ghost Recon in his books and then it became a video game.....with or without his blessings.... unfortunately that actual term was a highly secret spec ops unit from the Vietnam war that operated without MACV even knowing about them and it shows Clancy really did and does have insider info from govt. sources. It shouldn't have happened. His using that term.
@@ARCOFJUPITER In a matter of peaking yes it is about "levels" but even if he painted a mcdonalds logo on the hood and renamed this the mcdonalds challenger they wouldn't sue him for it lol. It is a non monetized youtube video with barely over 9,000 views. The family that owns the black challenger doesnt seem like a sue happy corporation, I feel they would be honored that someone appreciates the car enough to make the video. Last time I checked the black ghost challenger wasn't a trademark, nor patented, or copyrighted. You're just one of those sue happy people that like tying up our legally system with frivolous lawsuits that won't go anywhere. Shameful.
more CGI nonsense. This car was nothing special even when it was out on the streets of Detroit. How do we know? Becuase we were out there every Wed., Fri., and Sat. night, on Telegraph, where this car is from. Never heard of it.....N & H Racing.

Nice 👍 I came here after watching the documentary on the Black Ghost
I made the vid after watching it XD
I have this car on forza and spent hours looking at vinyl designs and finally found one with the gator top
Then youre doing better than me. I havent found one for this video, and had to make it myself for the second iteration :P
i saw this story about him 2 days ago...fkn amazing!
RIP Godfrey Qualls
Godfrey's Black Ghost was awesome... but Don't forget about the King Of Woodward. The Silver Bullet.
What was the make of The Silver Bullet?
@@maxwellharris507 1967 GTX Jimmy Addison's car. Awesome story behind it.
Had a 488" race hemi (it was a stroker). Total monster.

@@maxwellharris507 I love this stuff. The spirit and stories are priceless. I wish they had GoPros back then.
Man, if only we could get the gator top.
I made it in the updated version, there isn't a texture for it so i had to just use patterns.
Driving really nice, keep it up loved this video
This is the good stuff actual history
Indeed :D
It needs the gator skin roof!
Check the updated version through the pinned comment :)
Fuckin love it........ Greatest Hemi of them all
For the longest time, I preferred the charger, now Im starting to appreciate this one more :)
The Black Ghost challenger:time to race against some unfortunate souls haha😈
The real black ghost is a 4 speed
Please tell me how you made the bumblebee stripe on the trunk

@@wanted.2480 Thank you. Also was curious how the gator grain top was done. I wish someone had it uploaded to the designs an liverys.

No gator vinyl roof........
Yeah, couldnt find a design with it. And didnt have the time needed to make it from scratch :/
Made a 2nd iteration. Spent an hour on the design lol. ua-cam.com/video/sfAi2DxGxF0/v-deo.html
Where is the Africa Sticker and croc embossed top?
My wife sent me out to get some milk the other night.
It kinda went like that . . .
Did you get the milk ? :D
@@wanted.2480 I deliberately forgot . . . so I could go back out again.
@@bman99ss Well played XD
I just made this lmao i knew someone beat me. I made it rusty tho 💯
I made an updated version where I made it look aged, off white stripes, not a perfect black- more of a sun damaged, also added a gator roof :D
Wrong top the top of the black ghost is a gamer green vinyl
I thought it was black alligator? I literally just watched the documentary on it lol
yup gator green, it looked black to me
@@robertl955 Gator grain* not green
Can't believe someone made a video game out of this story....hope the wife or his kid got the Intellectual Property rights payment for this. I'd sue if I didn't.
Its forza lol what are you talking about. They can have challengers in forza and players can customize it however they want.
