my buddy (another former disabled trucker) lives out there in NV. he has a friend, that is in the process of making a movie regarding Charles Manson, and this guy, my buddy is friends with, was supposed to be at Sharon Tates place on the day/night of the massacre. this guy who i am about to mention, was also friends with "Tex", one of the killers.
he spoke with "Tex" in prison and asked, "if i was there that night, would you have killed me"?
Tex said..."yeah".
that man was never so "happy" his car broke down that night.........
this man has never spoken a bad word on any of his former "Hillbillies" co-stars, and is the only one still living.
this is a picture of him and one of his G/F's, at my buddies house, one night, when he drove up on a motorbike...
recognize him..???
my buddy in NV, once lived in CA, and actually also did "some" driving in a couple of tv shows, like, The streets of San Francisco (he would drive the brown car, Mike Douglas/Karl Malden were supposed to be driving, in a few chase scenes), and he'd also have a few "background" fill in parts, non-speaking, and he also had to pick up Brenda Vaccaro, and became friends with her as well.
he and Max, are like 2 peas in a pod, and is working with Max on the Manson/Tate project.
