Kevin,

It looks like you found the link to the Marcos Group
here in the States.  I am aware of a red Marcos in the
Northern VA area.  I believe the owners name is Dan
Duvall.  Might find history of that car from a garage
in Northern VA called MotorHead, the garage  owners
name is Jeff.  I know he provided mechanical repairs
and parts to the car owner.  Don't know if this is the
Marcos you are looking for, I believe it is a steel
frame.
