He then retired but came back and in 1963 with a Porsche 356 and entered a number of races but no results are know.

In 1965 he acquired a Triumph TR3 and used it to good effect, winning the Pacific Coast championship for F production cars.

He only raced occasionally in 1966 and 1967.

He was killed at Riverside International Raceway when his Triumph TR3 hit oil in one of the turns and went out of control.
