Looking for info on a 63 race car/ SCCA Pics

[Tom M.]

Found a 63 scca B production roadster. From what I have found it was raced at least 68-78 in NE SCCA region 023. owner/driver was Michael Nucera. It started life as a red/black 63 fuelie convert (and at one time had Z06 big brakes on it, vin is 20138.). it was painted yellow around 1970 and gold around 73. I have several pics of the car in vintage form. anyone have vintage racing pics or info from Lime Rock, Bridgehampton, or Thompson Speedway??. I would also like to know who owned it prior to Nucera.

that doesn't look like a 63 unless the front fenders were changed. Could be a 63 or 64 hood. Course if you are looking at the VIN and Trim plates, you can best tell.
Was it common to change out the front fenders for later ones to aid in air flow when racing?

Actually I think the 65-66 fenders were used for an updated look as his tow car was a mossport green 66. but it does appear to be common for 63-64's to have had the vents changed. airflow may have been the reason.

It's a RACE CAR guys, common to front end collisions. And this car has great history up thru the 70's.
