following is information that I received from the previous
owner:Motor Trend Car of the Year1 of 461 1968 H.O. GTO
ConvertiblesVehicle ID # 242678Z126431Engine Unit #
YZ4999Transmission Unit # PX35987Rear-end 3:55 gear ratio�This
vehicle was bought off the showroom floor in Castle Rock Colorado
by Richard Laufert a pilot for United Airlines. Although he has
since passed away his wife still had all the maintenance records
and other valuable documentation for the car. She attested that the
car had never been driven in the winter contributing to the low
mileage on the convertible. Other than the H.O. engine and
console-mounted Dual Gate automatic the care was a bare-bones GTO
with only a radio and front disc brakes.To the best of my knowledge
based on documentation the original owner had the vehicle until the
early 1980's when it was sold to Doug Cosh. He drove the car from
the early 1980's to 1987 from approximately 45000 to 92500 miles.
The vehicle was then sold to Robert Thompson who drove it from 1087
to 1993 to approximately 100000 miles. ( December 1990 cover of the
National GTO magazine "The Legend"). The vehicle was in Colorado
until it was sold to it's fourth owner in 1993 and presently has
104000 miles.Vehicle Restoration from 1993 to 2008:Rebuilt
