Yes, I was watching all the fuss on FB, people being amazed the Black Ghost was up for sale, given the family had said they would never sell it. Not sure why they are surprised, that’ll be what the sudden return and documentary were all about, I reckon. Like you say, marketing campaign.
When I first read about this car it was obvious that if any of it was true, then it was heavily embellished. The notion that a stock Hemi Challenger, and a heavily optioned one at that, in any way ruled the streets of Detroit in 1970 is laughable, it would have been a 13 second car at best in a sea of 11 and 10 second cars. Even as a one of one car, the hype has increased its value I’m sure.

Yep, sounds about right. I think it’s one of those. It’s a nice story, but that’s exactly what I think it is.
24 hours in a day, 24 beers in a case. Coincidence? I think not…
