I saw Mike's history of it here.....

I knew the airplane when it was in NY State at Riverside Airport in Marcy NY. The airport's owner had the airplane back when it was N86603. I don't recall when he bought it, I have pics of it from 1973 and there is a gap in ownership from 1972 to 1984. Can anyone fill it in?

N86603 ended up in Florida in 1972/73 where it was bought by I assume a private owner.
I've got photos of it as N86603 and N945JD (& of course N663G).
Your best bet is to request an aircraft history printout from the FAA.
(I'd be interested in seeing that myself.)
Doesn't cost very much, a few bucks.

I might have a picture of it when at Florida Aeromotive. I used to set up banners there on the weekends, Owen Gassaway owned that company, really great guy to chat with.
