    That looks like an SCCA Logbook Tech ID. The first two digits indicate the region number and the rest is the region's sequence of logbooks issued.

    Region 79 is South Carolina.

    looks like an SCCA chassis tag (from South Carolina IIRC). I suspect the rollbar may have been plated and stamping the plating could have chipped/fractured the coating?

    I thought this could be a USCA tag? The car has a log book from them and ran the early Super Vee series, it was originally a Wilbur Bunce car he was located in California.

    Also I don't think water cooled super vees where allowed to race SCCA in 1979.

    79 is the region number, not the year.
