Hi Fred,

I owned a bare Mirella frame in very rough although straight condition and "restored" it inexpensively although not period correct. I made up decals and a color scheme that suited my interests and hung various components from the parts collection. I collected a few photos of Mirellas at the time, including a full-Campy version. Here are my links, if you want to take a look:

and restored:

Enjoy the bike. Mine was a fun ride.
