One of several photos taken in Hawaii by Ron Raffaelli (1943-2015), who was hired by Hendrix to cover his tour. This shot is listed as being from October 6, 1968, when Hendrix was shot driving the dune buggy with then-girlfriend Kathy Etchingham. One site (formidable mag) pictures quite a few color and black and white shots taken during that period.
A 2011 episode of “Pawn Stars” featured the photographer selling a collection of unpublished photographs of Hendrix, which were purchased by owner Rick Harrison for $15,000.

And resold by Scumbag Rick for 150,000 because he had to hold the collection in his shop for 3 days to find a buyer and 15k was the best he could do.

Picturing Rick saying, with a grimace: “Yeah….15 is the best I can do…”

"Buggy Car" sounds so much less cool(er) than "Dune Buggy"

Used to see tons of these buggies in the 70s less so in the 80s. Usually converted VWs.
