My geminis are/were both rally cars. The first one I bent the front end hitting an embankment and when we were looking at the damage we discovered the majority of the panels (including the roof/A pillars) were held on by old mud, so reshelled it with my new red one :)
Love my Gemini :)

Buddah - not really, being a girl it's a little more acceptable. Just can't decide what colour to go next :)

Gday Mel and welcome!!

I'm only up the road in Marsfield, so I'll be on the lookout :D I'm in a Gen V GT Wagon also.....

If I'm not up for a race, its probably because I'm sporting the 'Baby on Board' sign in the back window :lol:

I've got a forged G161 atm that revs to the stars but I have a G200 there waiting to be rebuilt. Just time and money haven't permitted.

Buddah- where would I have seen you? Newcastle? Sydney? Meets? Work? Racing?
