    Great pics, I could look at oldies like these all day. The first one looks like a section of Slea Head on the Dingle peninsula and the second one might be Longford Town. I may be miles off, but the cars are the bizz also. Nice one!

    Some of them are excellent. I couldnt get a decent look at those photos in Toughers! There was lots people standing at that tiny table all day leafing through those photographs.
    Its a mix of England and Ireland.
    There was a photo of a side shot of a Hispano Suiza, unfortunetly you cant see the reg- I'd have bought it if it was Irish but on the off chance of it being taken in England I didnt!

    I am sure the crash scene is in County Laois. The crashed car has an Offally reg (IR) and the car on the road has Laois Reg (CI). There is signwriting on the towtruck that confirms that it is Aldritts Garage Maryborough (Which is now portlaoise). I know this because I personally know the young lad standing on the tow truck who is still alive and is now 90 years old. He did work in Aldritts garage as a young lad.
