Dick was the official importer of De Tomaso performance parts to the USA 
during the 1971-1974 period.   Although Ford was importing the Pantera and 
handling the supply of spare parts for the cars, Dick was the guy that was bringing 
in the non-stock parts (such as 10-inch wheels, roll cage, Gr3 brakes etc.).   
He was also the guy you would talk to if you wanted to buy a non-standard 
Pantera such as a Gr3 or Gr4 race car.
