The 250 GT with serial number S/N 3589GT has an extraordinary history.
Delivered in April 1962 in dark blue to the Endeavour team in the UK, this GTO competed in several races in England until September 1962, which were won with the well-known racing driver Michael "Mike" Parkes.
In November 1962, the GTO was sold to Tom O'Connor's Rosebud Racing Team in Victoria, Texas and subsequently repainted in light blue metallic. With the drivers Innes Ireland and Richie Ginther, several races in the USA – including the Tourist Trophy and Sebring – were contested until mid-1963.
In 1964, Mr. O'Connor decided to give his GTO to his daughter's school – Victoria High School – for teaching purposes. High school students repainted the GTO in red in 1965.
In 1970, Victoria High School sold the vehicle to Ohio, where its owner, Mr. Kortan, rented the 250 GTO for $34 a day.
Between 1972 and 1986, the vehicle was parked on a trailer in a field, and its condition deteriorated rapidly.
In 1986, the GTO, now matt red, was discovered and bought by an American collector. He sold the vehicle to the well-known Stieger family in Switzerland.
In the summer of 1988, the GTO was completely restored by Sportgarage Leirer in Switzerland.
