Thank you James for posting the superb photographs.
I believe two cars were shipped to Ireland ,one to compete and the other one for Harry Ferguson. The car that J. D. Barnes drove had an English registration and Harry's one on trade plates ready to be registered in Ireland . I'm pretty sure Harry's car is painted primrose .
Below is a picture of J. D. Barnes from the October 1928 edition of the Austin magazine which has been retouched and posted by me in an older thread. Note the fold down screen and filler in the scuttle.
