**SORRY SOLD OUT**


An Garda Siochana, as the Irish Police are correctly known, used a lot of Ford Cortinas in this era as they were built at the Ford factory in Cork.  The vehicle modelled started its working life at the former Eglington Street station in Galway during December 1975, and was based there for approximately three years.  It covered around 80,000 miles in its role as a ‘District Car’ in the city of Galway and its surrounding areas, working 24 hours a day with the two man crews doing 8 hour shifts.  Eglington Street station was closed in the mid-eighties when the new Mill Street station was opened.
