My brother had an "80" SR5 4x4 Black package truck and it had the Silver & Gray stripe. He named it the Black Beauty and it was a good looking truck. If I can find a picture I will post it.

ahh hmm .. I was sure the stripes didnt come out till /82 .. which led me to believe this was an /82 .. The earlier years had the divided stripes and 2 tone paint skeems .. maybe that was only here in Canada though ?

I call my brother and he said his truck was an "81"and it had a silver and gray stripe like the one pictured above. He also said it was a Black & Chrome package; the truck was kind of special and it was on the showroom floor at the dealership. He rolled it on one side about six months after he got it and said the shop had to special order the stripe so it would match the one on other side..

I will anxiously await .. with baited breath

I haven't seen a Mojave for some time now, but I got a ride in one back in the fall of 1992 when I spent the fall/winter in Alberta. There used to be at least one Mirage running around in our neck of the woods, but alas, haven't seen any as of late. Will keep my eyes peeled as I always do for the 1st gen vehicles. My first 4x4 was a 1983 short box SR5, which got me hooked forever.

Very much like the mojave .. exept the theme was silver .. so originally it had a silver roll bar , stripes , chrome package .. ect...
