Anyone know or remember this gentleman? I met him back in the 70s at Lime Rock. As I recall, he lived in Annapolis, MD and owned a restaurant. Also, I believe he owned a 250 GTO. Quite a specialist in sailing. Is he still active? Bob Z.
Hey Bob, his last name is spelled Defriece. Have no idea about him today but in 1977 Richard Merritt sat in Mark's 500 Mondial series I serial 0406/MD, see attached. Image Unavailable, Please Login Best regards, Robert
Mark Defriece owned/handled the following as well as I am sure others: 250 GTO 3387 GT. 250 GT SWB Competizione 2237 GT. 250 GT/L Lusso 4359 GT. 250 LM 5903. 500 Mondial 0406 MD (wreck). Dino 206 S 024.
Stephen Griswold did restore 3387 GT. I seem to remember a poster of the car in bits. Here it is: Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
I may be wrong but I think the restaurant was named "O'Leary's". Supposedly a very upscale seafood establishment. Not sure if he owned it or was a partner. Bob Z.
