Dad used to park his 1969 Chevelle next to them which packed a 440 engine, 6 speed. They were parked in a garage Dad once decided to turn into a recording studio and started sawing through the beams that held the roof intact. It almost fell on us and the three prestige cars. We would borrow Christines cars and totally thrash them. If Dad wasnt crashing them. I was. She gave Dad the black Corniche in the end. It was probably less stressful if he was wrecking his own car. I think he actually totally wrote it off in the end believing we were being chased by fans in Cold Water Canyon. We lost control and the car turned over, though thankfully neither of us were hurt.'

it always makes me rather sad to think of Christine putting up with the bulls&t that was apparently the every day behavior of Dennis Wilson. Someone like him would drive me round the bend.... no matter how good the sex was. And honestly, he was so drunk and/or high most of the time, one has to wonder about that......
