593 MIU Ember Red Viva E Limerick, Southern Ireland
Posted: Wed Apr 20, 2022 1:04 pm
Hello all,
Just a brief introductory post.
I have recently come into the possession of what I have yet to have confirmed as a 1978 year, and definitely
a 2 door Vauxhall Viva with the above County Limerick , Ireland Mid West, registration number.
The vehicle was in a shed on a farm. A restoration had been begun, when unknown - by a gentleman who sadly passed away assisted by another gentleman who is now incapacitated.
I am presently in the process of confirming that it will be possible for me to re-register the car for road use.
It shows 58,000 miles which given wear internally would appear correct. The body is tatty but in apparently surprisingly good condition from the point of view of corrosion. It would appear that surface corrosion on the body led to a respray being begun.
I have attempted to decipher the vehicle identification plate but can find no reference to the MML included.
I would appreciate it if someone could enlighten me.
Regards,
Bill
