Most probably the last Irish assembled '50 Dodge Coronet left on the road.

I'm looking forward to the rest of your photos.

A tale of two Shamrocks, i've no idea if efforts were made to restore the Wexford one but the photo was taken back in the late eighties in Wexford

When i enquired about buying it, it had already been promised to someone else, a few weeks after that, the opel and mini were gone, they also had a few other cars including an opel rekord coupe which also disappeared, i've never seen any of the cars since unfortunately

XZH belonged to a guy in Blackrock, his sons were into MGs but he had a few Triumphs and occasionally came on runs with the club

Hi DarenO,Do you have any more old photos from your Triumph days as we are always intersted in old photos of club cars from the past,at present we still have about 80 members in the T.C.O.C. although a lot have moved on from the Herald and gone for the more sporty models also if anyone else has any of old Irish Triumphs it would be great if they would oblige by posting them as a lot of the older photos have not been seen by many.Thanks.

Is that an Opel Rekord behind the 59 Mini? I'd love to get one of those. My Father had one JIO 648 in 1968/69

it is an Opel Rekord, i'll post a pic of the car later, they had a coupe as well but that was hidden behind a few cortinas and all the cars disappeared at the same time.
