Enough suspense.

CSX 2220 was invoice to SAI on 11/83; subsequently invoiced on 1/22/64 to Executive Leasing Co. (LA). The car was picked up at SAI and registered with the California Plates, LIW 535.

It was leased and/or eventually purchased by a one, Jay Sebring, "Hairdresser to the Stars". Sebring had the dubious distinction of being at the wrong place at the wrong time, partying at the rented house of Sharon Tate (the house was actually owned by Doris Day's son) when Charles Manson and his troupe of killers came-a-calling.

Sebring, who had attended the CS School of High Performance Driving, was one those people murdered by Manson that fateful night in '69. When you read the history of the episode it often refers to Tate and four of her guests. Sebring was one of those guests.

I am not sure this is the kind of provenance one would be looking for in acquiring an original CSX with a "unique" history. Might make for an interesting story board, though. Maybe Charlie could sign the dash.
