Muriwai - Beach Races 1963
Believed to be the last of these events, as Pukekohe was now available as a permanent racing circuit and was supported by both the main Auckland Car Clubs Auckland Car Club and Northern Sports Car Club.
These images from 1963 are of the Auckland Car Club meeting.
Cars on the Beach in the main race ; Allan Dick - Classic Autonews archives
John(ny) Riley Ferrari Monza, Bill Thomasen Cooper - Climax and Ivan Cranch Maserati 6CM [Ivan was President of ACC around this time.]
Cars on the second row not stated - on the left looks like one of the Ford Specials from 1950's such as Jock Aitken and Phil Kerr raced [ the same Jock Aitken built car ] or the GBS Gordon Brown Special.

Motorman Magazine report on the event - the main placegetters are in the above photo. Graham Woods archives

Any further information of the event would be appreciated
