    '80 Mirada 4 speed

    I thought I'd finally post some pics of my '80 Mirada I converted to a 4 speed and got back on the road after 5 years or so. I posted some progress pics in the old 'lets see them j bods' thread a few years ago but never really got around to posting much more other than when I went through the...

    F body Z bar bracket

    Anyone with a manual transmission F body able to take a pic of the frame side bracket for the Z bar stud? I'm converting my Mirada over to a 4 speed and was wondering if I could make something to duplicate the factory setup. The 1980 service manual I have doesn't show it clearly.

    Frame connectors.

    Anyone have frame connectors on a J body? Will the autorust ones work, or are they for F bodies only? I think the wheelbases are different between the 2? I suppose I could make a pair out of 2x2 or 2x3 tubing easy enough.

    Mirada front rub strip

    Does anyone have a decent chrome/black front bumper strip for a Mirada or maybe know of generic trim that will fit in the same recess and look ok? Mine has been gone since I bought the car nearly 10 years ago and I'm tired of seeing the holes in the bumper lol. I think Brad's has a NOS one but...

    Mirada trim removal

    Does anyone know how to remove the roof rail, side window and "ribbed" C pillar trim on a 1980 Mirada? I got the front and rear windshield trim off easy enough with a trim tool, but I'm not sure how this other stuff is held on. Thanks.
