Was this an in-house job?

I don't know, maybe someone else has more info.

Done by a customising company here in Australia, 10 grand premium over normal lancer.

hardly worth the effort.

Love to see some pics of the 1970s Mitsubishi Lancer Celeste. It was a Coupe. Sportier profile than the regular Lancer.

I'm assuming that the galant and mirage here were called the lancer out side the U.S. ?

No, the Galant is bigger. Lancers are called Mirage in some countries.

[Forever92]

No, the Galant is bigger.

My Bad... thought this was a Galant, I didn't view it.

Can you post more photos of the Lancer EX? (2nd gen lancer)

Picture 2 shows the Dodge Lancer Celeste, a badge engineered version for the US market of the original Mitsubishi version. Mitsubishi formed an alliance with Chrysler Corporation as a way of entering the US market before trying with Mitsubishi-badged cars in the early 80's (the Cordia, Tredia and Starion).
