“See “once upon a time in Hollywood “”
I loved that movie. There is a really great trivia site about the Manson murders on the ‘net
Steve McQueen was invited by Sharon to stop over that night. He said yes but later went home with a woman he picked up..
Manson was hitch hiking in LA and was picked up by a young Texan, a newcomer to California. They got to talking, found music was a common interest. The hitch hiker said he knew Dennis Wilson of the Beach Boys and they went to his house. Wilson was not there. The hitch hiker was Charlie Manson, the Texan: Meatloaf.
More trivia
Manson clan favorite cars to steal and work on were VW’s and dune buggies.
The manson girls would take a brand new or used VW out for a test drive with the salesman and while out on the road pull a gun and kick out the salesman and drive off.
There are to this day numerous shells of VW’s in a gully behind what was Spahn ranch because no one can get them out it is so steep.
There are picture of the vw’s on the internet.
Souvenir hunters have picked them pretty clean.
