      What you want is a 3 point mount. I guess the 2 point just collapses and crushes engine covers and cases.

          Do you know if a 78 or 79 fits an 1980?

              All the frames are the same in that area, so yes, it would fit. Newbie is right though. Get a 3-point guard, or it will do more damage if you crash than if you didn't have it in the first place.
