Identify this Ferrari?

It's a SuperAmerica, likely 3309...had side trim on lower doors too. Upper trim was paint, IIRC

Another photo of 3309 taken May 1964 at VIR, Danville, VA.

So who's the dude standing next to the car...?

 

Three more pictures of 3309, again all taken at VIR in 1964.

As long as Carbon wants to play "name that man" let's see if anybody can correctly identify the man in the background in the blue driving suit leaning on race car #9 -- bonus points if you can identify the race car #9.

Why it must be you know who! Gotta love those white shorts. What happened to the plaid ones, Gerald?

Forget the race car. Oh man, a Rambler station wagon. It doesn't get any better.

 

No, that's not me. If you want a clue I can tell you that the man in the picture was later extensively involved in the Ferrari world here in Atlanta.

 

Uh . . . it's a Studebaker Lark station wagon!

 

I actually WOULD like to have a Nash Ambassador station wagon from 1956 or 1957...the BIG one...

 

Looks like Roger...

 

OK, mebbe Augie? Doesn't look like a Lola coupe, but mebbe a 151?
Big fenders and E-type style grille fits, but I have no records with me. Online stuff was unhelpful.
Still looks like a young Roger P somewhat. Any more pics Gerald? Carb?

 

Well! Some of us were still riding bicycles back in 64.

It still kinda looked like a Rambler, though.

 

So which SP car is in photo 3, Wayne
No wonder I didn't guess GTO and that threw me off. Grrrr. Second guessing instinct is a bad thing.

BUT, all the other pics have 3 nose vents uncovered, even on trailer. Not visible in 1st photo...Hmmmm.

 

Umm, it's 4453SA?...

 

Yep, I was looking them up...skeptic, you know, found the double listing.
Still nary a pic with nose vent covers in place like orig pic from Gerald.
I put 0798 in my orig post, had to beat you to it...it's in edit line. Love this stuff. Need pic @ VIR with nose vents closed to close the deal.
How's mit baby?

Of course, Wayne is right as to the driver and the identity of race car #9.

The person who supplied the original photos (who, by the way, is the dude standing by the car in the first photo I posted - not yet identified) also said #9 was S/N 4713.

I am pretty sure that in May 1964, when these pictures were taken, S/N 4453 SA was not red. I believe it was still painted the bronze-gold color (typical of the Ferraris raced by Don Fong) it wore in the September 1963 Bridgehampton race when driven by Dan Gurney.

 

Also, in 1964 the front end of S/N 4453 was visibly different from S/N 4713. S/N 4453 had auxiliary lights faired into the nose and Don Fong had added a hood scoop to the car in 1963. The car retained the hood scoop for many years.

FWIW I have a copy of the Certificato d'Origine for the car and it give the S/N as 4453/LM.

 

You mean this Gerald?

Boudewijn,

That's the car! Any idea when that picture was taken?
