Pic 3 (linked in quote) looks like RHD - converted?

He never said anything about a conversion, I just assumed Brazil must be RHD too and never thought to ask about that !

The fellow who owns the TR3 may well be on here, but to honest I am not sure, PAT !! You out there ??

I will email him and find out, but one thing I do know is the TR3 he has owned over 30 years i would guess. I will see what i can find out for you.

That TR3 has been owned by Pat for the last 38yr.

Walking up Nassau Street this morning about 9:15 I was passed by over a dozen wedding style cars.

Mostly Daimlers and RR Silver Shadows, as well as two very vintage looking Rollers (maybe Twenties?)

Didn't get any pics as they were kinda split up and just kept coming. Wonder who the heck hired all those today? I assume it was for a big wedding or something as the occupants were all in suits and Wednesday morning in town seems an odd time for a rally!

The church car park would be a good place to be!

Now I just saw them all pass up the top of Digges Lane!

Wishbone Ash

Double post.

Wishbone Ash

I think that Minor in Skerries must have been resprayed recently. It used to be much duller (greyish) and very dirty.

Some pics from Cuba.
(most pictures were taken form a bus or other moving objects (horse cart ), so not great. Furthermore, they were taken by darling wife who has little interest in cars, so not quite the shots I would have chosen ...but anyhow ...here they are)

That Rolls Royce had a 3.3 lt Nissan Patrol diesel engine and a tow bar fitted to it. The owners ambition was to pull up on Maxwell Motors forecourt with trailer full fo rubbish and ask for it to be filled with diesel. As far as I know he fulfilled his ambition. I know the driver and the Garda in the photo and I used to hang out in the garage where the conversion was carried out.

Not sure if this should be in the abandoned thread or not, it did move the other day, about 6 foot back and turned 90deg!

Okay so maybe not a classic yet - but the Maserati Quattroporte I followed home yesterday might be one day!
(Not wise I know taking a picture while driving up the rear of a €150K + car :eek:)

Think the pic says as much about your car as the one in front..:D Oil pressure at 1600 rev/min says engine is ok. 12mph on speedo means you were probably in first or second gear. Car not yet on the grass so probably steering with knees while taking photo:) Maybe not for long though as the maserati seems to have its brake lights on.........;)

A few from today and yesterday.

Lord Harrington's former Jensen Interceptor FF in Clontarf.



Badly parked Trabant 501 on King's Inn Street.



This must be rare. Original Irish (NZW 79) Aflasud Cloverleaf in Clontarf.

My MGB after a good wash today.

Look what turned up today on the petrol station on the N4 in Lucan:



I guess he thought it needed a wash and didn't want to do it himself

^ Linky no worky.

Max_Damage

^ Love the Trabbi!

Although it looks more like a 601 than a 501.

If you did run into the maserati you might have got a shock at who was driving it. You would have been trading insurance details with Bono...
