    I think the car in the shed is a Chrysler Hillman Hunter

    Saw this the other day on........ Capel Street yet again. I have no idea of the year it might be. Anyone?
    There seem to be alot of restored Mercs around these days. Not just classics but models from the late 70's and early eighties.

    It's a '64 as far as I know. It lives in Terenure and appears to be a daily driver.

    That's the one I saw last Thursday in Killeagh.

    I drive through every Monday morning. I was going to do a full reccy but my camera battery died after the above shot!

    It belongs to Johnny Greene who deals in classic cars, beautiful car pity about the glass sunroof though. If it was mine I'd fit a Webasto canvas roof in it instead. I can't believe someone thought it would be a good idea to fit a glass sunroof in a car like that...and no it wasn't fitted by the present owner.

    He has two.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,269 ✭✭✭MercMad


    He has two.

    Jeeeeeeeez its bad enough fitting one glass sunroof, but fitting two !! :eek:

    :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,910 ✭✭✭✭RoundyMooney


    Well, if it's good enough for Renault...

    ...actually, never mind.

    I'm fairly sure that's the Ford Edsel that was at terenure.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,415 ✭✭✭Gatster


    Citroen(s) all parked down the road adjacent to my house (and another two round the corner). All identical, no idea what they were doing there but they were gone at 0630 this morning...
