Hi guys, i bought my Scimitar (1979 SE6a) yesterday ! :-) .. Its already insured, however i have some troubles with registering it and taxing it (its more complicated) ...



the car is in rough condition but i drove it yesterday from Mayo to Cork (almost 300km) without a problem..

btw. im looking for headlamps, so if you know where to get them i will appreciate every helpful info..

think I might have a set I'll have a look.

Hiya Diabhalta

That looks very like my one

I have a new inner sealed beam in the garage if you need an inner one.
Which one are you looking for.

Are you interested in a road trip to West Meath on saturday

I found a pair on ebay but for LHD model. But that guy is able to get a pair for RHD model (new-unused) ... Those lights you might have are ok?

I think i need both (one is really bad, but the other one will need to be replaced as well)

Sorry dude, im working on saturday and the paperwork needs to be done first (the last thing i want is the car to be seized by gardaí). Anyway, im from Cork as well. PM !!! :-)))

I have one of the inner ones which is in fair condition and a set of the outer ones in perfect condition.I will have to check what i need for mine. I bought the bigger ones in the Bradys auto factors in Arklow as I remember I think they are the same as land rover ones. Check the size and you may be able to get them locally as the same size of headlight was used on a lot of different cars back when all headlights were round and didn't cost €300 to replace.

Some pics of the meet. More people turned up than cars but sure we might get more the next time

Diabhalta

Nice.. It reminds me a Volvo 340/360 meeting in Czech where there were three of us as well (and more people than cars ) ... That blue one is different- it says RS 3.1 on the right rear side, towing bar, colour coded bumpers.. I like the wheels (Torq thursts are not original i would say..) ..
