The other day, I took my Mirada to an old Steel Plant and took hundreds of pictures. I'm no professional, but had a blast driving her all over the place and there were cool backdrops everywhere.

Nice car. Are those the old keystone klassics?

Thanks for the compliments guys! They are keystone klassics, but they are new. They are almost identical to the old ones, but there are slight variations.

great pictures love your mirada how tough was it changing her to a 4 speed ?

It took time to switch her to a four speed, but wasn't too bad for a car not designed for it. It helped that the car had the shifter on the floor, so the interior was already set. We bolted up a bell housing, mounted up the tranny and used a Hurst shifter. I got a large assortment of linkage on ebay and we modified 3 of them to fit the tranny. We then ran the pistol grip through the existing automatic shifter hole. It didn't line up, so we just offset it with a ton of washers. Definitely recommend it for anyone who loves 3 pedals.

Sweet photo spread. I have one question though how in the hell did you hide all the wires in the engine comp?

I got her out to clean her for the York street rod show next weekend and figured I could get some pics to show what we did. We hid everything we could under the right fender. Anything that needed to come to the front, ran behind that fender and we tucked it behind the front bumper. I wasn't initially planning on going this far, but you know how one thing leads to another.

Well done!
It looks amazing without the gazillion wires.

Had thought about doing that with my Córdoba years ago but couldn't find an f body pedal assy and gave up on the idea. I'm sure it's a lot of fun!
