1960 Shamrock with SI Tail Lights

[RunnerDuck]

Could it be that a 1960 Shamrock, built in Ireland used SI Alpine tail lights? There were only ten Shamrock's built but it's possible.

It looks like they took some design cues from the Rambler line

Certainly possible they could be the same taillights, although without access to measure them couldn't say for sure. There's a history of lower volume British cars using off the shelf components like these. The later at least Turner built cars used the same rear assembly as the series IV, V Alpines. And the Jaguar d-types used sideways mounted MGA rear lamps. Plus look at all the times you see the Series 1-III front turn units used front and back on some cars.

I think the designer had taken a peek of the 1957 Lincoln.
