    This is brilliant footage, thanks for sharing. Great to see Eyre Sq and Galway in the mid-70s and how much are those Carrera RS's worth now?

    Nice to see an Avenger and I guess that's a Firenza in there too.

    Stone Age rally driving lol its so funny to see how ancient the tech in the 70s was with exception of the Porsches which were 10 years ahead technically

    Is that Andy Dawson in that Datsun 240Z? I met him several times, great fella! Top rally engineer he was. 👍 No, Chris Leiter it is, or something.

    The sound of those Ford BDA engines! Beautiful
    Back when Ford actually knew how to make a good engine.

      Ford knows how to make good engines....but there's no money to be made when profits come first

    Amazing one, this 1975 RWD scene looks so competitive. Can enjoy different RWD styles and approaches unlike in 80's
    I know only Ford Escord and obviously Porsche, but there are several other uber sexy muscle-car-ish looking cars in this video.

    Ironic, isn't it, rally full of Porsches, but that is all Ireland could afford in the 1970's then, was cheap German Opals. 🙂🇮🇪🙃

      But those time western people could afford to buy muscle car. Top ones cost 80-220 thousands of dollars now in USA, means even more in countryes with taxes for engine value and etc.
