What do you think that came with ? I dont remember seeing 1 before.

I posted this earlier in the thread . It's not a sticker in the real sense of the word . It's on a Frazer corn roller . Mid 70s . I know of a Ford 3000 bought there in November 1975 with the same type spray on sticker.

Havint a clue @jf 850! found it there last week when I was looking for keys... My dad would have dealt abit with them back in the late 70s early 80s... he actually mentioned Tim Gleeson who has his own successful dealership on the go now (Borrisokane road outside Nenagh) started off there as a salesman too!

I bought a couple of small things from Tim , but haven't dealt with him in years. @Mf240 would have a couple of trailers and an agitator from Tim .

Jamiesons went in 85 , I think , so I hadn't started buying myself at that time. Possibly if he has sold stuff himself , instead of employing others to do it for him , while he didn't do much he would have lasted for longer .
 
Some more recent

I can vaguely remember their garage above in boherbue area ,the world of 135/165 and 168s sold by them .A fair share of mechanics learned their trade there, around what year did they go wallop and what was the reason .I presume it was around 1980 as there would not have been any 575 or 590 locally where as there are hundreds of 135 etc
 
They were importers of Hiab cranes . As far as I know .
I think Selene 4 wd convention kits also ?
@Arthur wouldn't be far from there and old enough to remember what they sold .

On the left hand side as you go into Cahir, nearly opposite the Mart ?

Were they not in the Square in Cahir. I remember seeing a 4WD tractor parked there when I passed by in one of Bianconi carriages.
