Jay Sebring - Jim Morrison

We all know, or most of us know, that Jay Sebring was a genius at his craft!  Here is one piece of proof, in my opinion.

Jay helped create Jim Morrison into a "Rock God".  

A lot of people in Hollywood were scared to death because of the Cielo Drive murders.  Some say it was because of drugs, I say it was because everyone was taken aback because NO ONE KNEW who was involved in these murders.  Everyone was scared to death.  

And what did Jim's death have to do with Jay's?  We're not sure, but we're checking on it.  It may have nothing to do with anything, but on the other hand, it might have everything to do with anything or nothing or maybe something.

Ford made the first 1965 Mustang Fastback. Then, Carroll Shelby took the Mustang and made it into a Shelby Mustang.(1965-70) A Cobra is a totally different car. aka (AC Cobra)also made by Carroll Shelby. 2 seat race car. I saw a video of Jim driving a Shelby. I think it was a 1968. I never heard of Jay owning a Shelby. Doesn't mean he didn't.

Thanks R Shep!!! I've never heard of Jay owning a Shelby either. But I'm with you. It doesn't mean he didn't. I know he liked race cars, and I know he liked Porsche!!

Wasn't he driving a Shelby in the pic of him, Sharon and the cop? I read that he had a '63 Shelby.

Carroll Shelby started making AC Cobras in 1963. Shelby Mustang's started in 1965. I've never seen the picture of them with a cop.

I used to have a sweater like that. Was he getting a ticket for going 100 in a 20?

That cop is left handed....

Venus said...

I sent the pic to both of you, glad it was posted, lol. There were many pix of Sharon taken that day. Maybe Jay was taking her to that diner to get her pic taken?? (I can't find that pic, but she's sitting at a counter in a diner....)

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". 1964 AC Shelby Cobra.
