My Mirage is back home

I just got finished buying my Mirage back!!!! I had purchased this
car when it was new in 1977 and took loving care of it until 1993
when I sold it. (What was I thinking?????) I always regretted that
decision and about a month ago I decided to track down the person I
had sold the care to and buy it back. To make a long story short...I
found him, he still had my Mirage and I bought it back and drove it
home yesterday. She is not in as good of shape as when I last saw her
and it will take some tender loving care (and dollars!!) to get her
back into prime condition but she is home. Following is the URL for
my home page:

I also have the original wheels. (Missing two centercaps ... I bet
those are hard to find.) I just need to get some new tires and then
they will go back on the car.

WOW! What a beautiful car and really nice photos. I wished the one I
bought off ebay looked as good as yours. It will one day as I'm
still in the process of aquiring parts as they come available for
the restoration.

Really a great find for you to be able to buy back the car you
bought new. I sure wished I could find my first Mirage I bought new
when I was 16. It had white interior, the one I have now has the red
custom cloth.

Wishing you the best on putting the finishing touches on her...I
would assume it's going to be shown since it's such a beauty!

ps: Yes, the wheel caps will be next to impossible to find...I need
all 4!
