I might be interested, is there any rust? If there is, how bad is it? |

Just a tiny bit of rust at the bottom of the driver's door. The car was rustproofed when new (Tuff-Kote). My late mother purchased the car when it was just a few years old, and she didn't drive it much (that's why it's only done 88,200 kms). I have no need for the vehicle so I'm trying to sell it. The car is quite clean and straight inside and out (for its age) except for some small 'supermarket dents'. I really would like a Gemini enthusiast to get the car as it has a lot of potential. |

You are welcome to come and have a look at the car at any time. Don't forget that it does have a minor fuel pump problem that would prevent it being driven for long distances (until fixed obviously). I goes well on level ground and down-hill but struggles for fuel going up hills. Do you live far from the Chadstone area? My mobile is 04111-48511 and my name is Peter. |

Reverse gear is left and down (which is normal AFAIK), whilst the paint is very good.
Two separate parties are coming to check it out. One of them seems very keen.

yes same as my tx, it has the bellet floor pan which means 5 spd cant be bolted up unless u move the gearbox mounts on floorpan. 8 bolt diff.
engine bay will prob be black as pre pollution and might not have a brake booster.
seats will be bolted through the floor. |
