Default 69 corvette history

Hi all - I'm new here. In 1999 I purchased a 1969 427/435 HP Corvette at Carlisle. The car has been great,no regrets, not for sale. Recently thru NCRS Documentation we have verified the Tank sticker/ build sheet and the dealer delivered to as Yenko. The cars build date is Oct 8, 1968 . The car was first titled on Jan 2,1969. The VIN # is 703833. Any information about it would be appreciated. During these 3 months at Yenko was it on a lot, on the showroom floor, or was it a demonstrator? Who was the 1st owner ? Any information would be greatly appreciated !
Thanks John

Did you work backwards to a dead end?

Any chance it's the 435/Stick 2-Top Roadster in the below Dec/68 Yenko ad?

Cool yours is a two top Stick car too John and yes very likely the one in the ad.
The ad's actually larger w/ top clipped off so I can go back and post the whole thing if you like also search for more.
Looking forward to seeing pics of the car also paperwork if you're Ok posting anything here.

Here's the whole Newspaper page John also a couple zooms of the Yenko ad @ Top/Left.
I found a few more Yenko ads from the time period although nothing more w/ the 435/Stick Roadster.
