A visit to a Classic car show/sale.
« on: January 17, 2011, 05:19:41 PM »
In October, quite some time ago then, I was in Swords' National Show Centre, where there was a classic car show/sale.
Some picture are not so nice, the hall was a bit dark, but too light to go and use the flash light, I thought.

What would you like to know? I presume the 1979 date stems from the chassis. It's made by JBA, which I believe existed from 1982 to 2005.

Thank you.
I wonder why it doesn't wear the JBA badge...

Good question.
Possibly, it was lost.
Possibly, it was actually build quite recently under different ownership (GTS Tuning took over JBA's Falcon for some time)
Possibly, as it is a kitcar, it was never fitted, as the owner liked it that way.

I cannot tell what the answer is at this time.

Nice bunch of old iron, lots of worthy autos.
Though the butchery of that red '59 Caddy Fleetwood hacked into a convertable is unfortunate!

My first visit to an Irish car show, thanks!

That'd be sweet!

But, sadly, I don't think I have the time or the money to properly take advantage of that trip.... :(

What's that dark blue sedan below the white '69 Caddy-lac rag top? Fiat maybe?

That maroon fin body Benz is right up my alley as is the black '69 Caddy-lac Sedan DeVille.
