Agree with Paul,thats a MKII made from 67-69 but lovely car none the less.If you look at the wiper motor it will be date stamped or if he has no objection,then post up the reg.Great to see more and more Irish cars coming out of the woodwork.It has Irish pattern seats in it.
Oops I posted 62 !! the red one was owned by a guy from kilgobbin near sandyford he pumped money into it then lost interest and sold it to a mate of mine for a song it has a mk1 rear light conversion an alloy interior ect, it was very nice when it was parked up some years ago . I was asked today if i would sort it out and tidy it up for the guy . I said i will stick it on the end of the queue
