The history of this car has been found. The driver is Steve Everetts aka the scrooge. This is the former Steve Bovan Blair's speed shop car. Steve Bovan purchased it form the milne brothers car #626. The #625 was purchased by Larry Megibow in the Summer of 1964.

I believe the car was also a SS&DI magazine cover shot back then too, when Steve had it.
I don't know how to scan it on here,, but I'm sure someone knows how.
