    Recieved Strange Email Regarding my 911

    Got this email forwarded this morning to me:

    Hi,
    My name is Bob Bailey and I own a website devoted to the "Tate-LaBianca" murders of 1969. One of the victims owned a 68 Sportomatic. His name was Jay Sebring and he dies, along with Sharon Tate, in the infamous "Manson Family" murders.

    He purchased the car in Hollywood and I notice that one of your members, Bret, has an identical car. How could I find out if this was the same vehicle?

    Would it be possible for you to forward this email to him?

    Curious.
    Bob
    I have included a photo of Sebring with his car.


    This shocked me, I'll keep you updated. The first owner of my car was a woman named Mary so I think I am in the clear.

    If he's that much "into" the crime, he should have done his homework, perhaps got the VIN of the victim's car. To test, maybe ask if he has the VIN? I guess everybody needs a hobby...no matter how sick it may be?

    Jay Sebring Porsche

    Isn't he the guy that they based the movie "Shampoo" on?

    Here's a LINK to a bio... there's a video clip of that black Porsche in it.

    That is quite a story. It seems the man did a lot in the time he had...so, I'd say somebody's search for the car is probably a legit one?

    It's not my car. My car was orginally Irish Green and the one he owned was black.

    If Porsches could Talk !

    I believe every Porsche has a Story and not always a happy one !. But if this cars could talk imagine all the experiences they had survive . Unfortunately I do not have the history of my car but that will be interesting .

    The other day on e-bay one person was selling a 911 that belonged to Rene Russo .
