Ever since I saw a tiny photo of 1 in a magazine twenty five years ago I've been gathering stories about and trying to find the whereabouts of the ill fated Shamrocks, this one has been sat in a shed not 30 minutes from my house for the past 30 years and I only found out where it was today, it's for sale too, it's way worse than it looks, loads of bits missing or broken. Off course it's dangerously affordable but it would just sit in my shed until I pop me clogs or more likely a divorce 😁 I'll make do with the original sales leaflet I have Maybe 10 were made in 1960 in Castleblayney Co Monaghan in Ireland for the US market, 17 feet long with a 53bhp Austin A55 engine, it was unsurprisingly a sales disaster with only 4 selling in the US in 1960, the remaining stock sold here in about 1964 after liquidation, all 10 cars survive along with a few unfinished shells
