Father Vince was Bill Vukovich's mechanic and this led to Bruce picking up the racing bug, but not before he obtained a business degree. When injury started to sideline his career, the degree proved a God-send - he purchased a Chevrolet dealership, which he ran until 1987, before being offered a role as Operations Manager at the First Farmers Bank, in Sullivan, Indiana. Until the late-2010's he was President of the First Financial Corporation in Terre Haute, Indiana, but is now retired. Also raced for a while in dwarf cars. Both his son and daughter became involved in motorsport, in various capacities.
