I am currently researching this GTO's early history in the USA, from 1967 to 1973.

I have spoken with Joe Zazzara, who bought the car from one, Nabakoff in Italy in 1965. Joe has told me that he used the car to go to work daily. He sold it in 1967 to "Someone who owned a laundry in Sunapee, New Hampshire. He couldn't remember the man's name, except that: "He wasn't used to a stick shift, he stalled it twice in the first 100 yards!"
I've now discovered that this buyer must have been a James R. Hall, who lived in New London, New Hampshire at the time. It was NOT the Jim Hall, who raced Chaparrals. Then there is a gap until David Piper of Sunningdale, England, sold it to Harley Cluxton of Scottsdale, Arizona in 1973, and the GTO was flown from ? England presumably, to O'Hare Airport for collection. We know the story from then on.
So - Question: Does anyone know who owned 4675 GT after James R. Hall and how did it get to England by 1973?
