Wasn't trying to be funny, or insulting. I have a scoop off of an '82 Omni Charger that looks the same. Just asking. Larry

This is my '80 Mirada CMX. I took the picture at the Mopar World Finals at Norwalk not knowing that 3 weeks later, I'd end up buying the car off Craigslist. Small world huh?

According to the site where I found these this Mirada is in Germany. You can always tell a Euro Mirada by its pentastar hood ornament.

1st time seein a Euro J body. Were they built in Europe or at Windsor Assembly Plant? Did the Imperial and Cordoba make it across as well?

Here is my 1981 Chrysler Cordoba. It's got the Corinthian package, which is the two-tone paint and special 1/4 vinyl top (no leather though, it's got crushed velour). Powered by the unstoppable leaning tower of power slant 6. The car had 24,000 miles on it when I bought it in 2011. The clock is now showing 33K. All original paint and everything. Only the tires and the radiator are new. Drives like it's 1982. People always mistake it for a Cadillac though -- but it is far more stylish, refined and reliable than any El Dorado.

My '80. I got it in 2001 for $800, swapped in a 360, 8 3/4 and painted it from white to black. Unfortunately the years of daily driving has taken it's toll and the front and rear frame rails are completely rusted out. I parted it out last fall and am swapping all the parts to a clean '81 Cordoba body I found. I'm hoping when it's finished this year it'll look exactly the same again.
