My Gemini will hopefully be on the streets of town in 2 weeks. I have spent 2 months of hard work to get it where it is but its still not finished. I've done a few minor engine mods, worked the fuck (absolutefuck) out of the poor Nikki, rebuilt all of the boltons, gotten rid of the rust, fixed a whole bunch of little fuckups and sanded it back for a fresh coat of paint.
But its warface and warpaint are still in the waiting cos I havent finished them, hopefully ready by end of january early feb. Its not a wonder car but it aint bad and I will be selling it next year when my other cars are finished.
See you all round the place!

Because I wanted to see just how far I could take it. And it cost me NOTHING to do. I like webers but I'm going to be using my twin HS-6's on the gem when I finish the manifold.
I am on a very strict budget. Most things that can I have rebuilt and detailed. Looks alright. I get the head back tomorrow. |
