Thanks from the Limerick Classic & Vintage Car Club to everyone who supported the 23rd Limerick Show .

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

We celebrated over 60 years of the VW Commercial in Ireland & had a special group display which included
a 1954 Barndoor Bus courtesy of John Knightly , a 2015 special edition Transporter , a 1985 Caddy & a 2015
edition 30 Caddy. Thanks also to those who participated in the Bus display inside the parade ring ,
providing a wide range of VW Commercials.
Nice to have some of Riggsi's "Commitments" VW pickup ,thanks to Stump for the courier service....


The Limerick Soapbox Grand Prix was a very popular attraction & thanks to those on Eircooled who
supported it by building & racing their karts...& to hell with the consequences

Once again Rez / Kevin provided brilliant tunes which created a great atmosphere.

Thanks to Volkswagen Group Ireland & Retro Classics magazine who were the main sponsors & also to
Lyons of Limerick .

The LCVCC will be making a donation to Pieta House following the success of the show.

Anyone have any history on the panel van HNI 179 ?

 

[Rocky]

I might ... lol

I bought it about four years ago from Ben Byrne who bought it from Derek Sheane some years before that. That covers the last 30 years of ownership where it has just sat in sheds gathering dust.

I have most of the history right back to '64 when it was registered in Wicklow, i'll pull it all together at some stage and start a thread on here.
