Info
“My late mother-in-law is in this picture. She was from Tralee and as far as I know she never travelled up as far as County Louth so I suspect this car was a long way from home.”
Thanks for submitting the photo Ronan. From what we can see, this was registered in December 1959 in County Louth. We cannot make out the colour so any guessing would be just that, guessing! It’s great to add an early Irish assembled Beetle to the census so thanks again Ronan.
