Thanks from the Limerick Classic & Vintage Car Club to everyone who supported the 2017 show .

The sun shone & there was a great turnout of VWs & other vehicles from all over Ireland ,which
made the voluntary efforts of the organisers & helpers worthwhile.

Thunder Action Sports put on a great stunt display with their BMX bikes & they attracted large crowds all day. Thanks to John Knightly for bringing along some of his bike collection to the show.

As usual ,Trevor B. had one of the WORST cars at the show & his latest made its international debut....

Nice pics but there seems to be a serious lack of lowered/modified beetles.

 

[trev]

Ah I don't know about that. I took pics almost exclusively of original Irish reg cars. Eddie cotters cal looker was there, as was diarmuid bugeye's air ride oval. There was that black wizard coupe, the William's brothers Bugly beetle, ex-Brian Dunne's stretched volksrod style beetle as well as a few mild custom bugs. Just not too many lowered/ modified original Irish beetles in my photos

 

[Rez]

Fair enough.
Congrats on that beetle of yours also. How many years in a row have you had a different vehicle at that show?

 

[trev]

Ah I had the jetta there last year and the year before. So I broke my streak
