      @@jondonnelly3 Exactly this. I think the only thing keeping this from happening is time. Marty and MOOG do everything in-house so to compile and edit all of the episodes by car/project would take forever. My go-to are the "playlists" and "project cars" in their catalog and just letting it rip.

    Your gemini is known to me as an opel kadett c. It is so cool to watch this and listening to all the conversations about the isuzu engines and the fact that an isuzu diesel engine was converted do petrol. The european opel models used isuzu diesel engines as standard. And the older opel 2.3 litre diesel engines where also converted to petrol in the past. Love this build 👍🏻

This is my first time seeing any of this build as I was probably busy watching other channels when you guys were posting these but what an epic build, truly one for the history books.

    This took me back through my teen years and my Gemini !! I was a 19 yr old who never thought I’d get a loan, so when the Holden salesmen said i could drive a car home i jumped on it. I had no idea what i was buying, except it was better than my 1960’s Mini trade-In. So i bought a brand new 1976 HX Gemini Coupe in the same blue with a 1600 cc Isuzu engine and 4 speed manual. I fell in love with that car the longer I owned it !! I kept it till 1992 and it was still running perfectly. The only issues i had was rust. Thanks for the video, great work :)

    Truly amazing and 3 hours of video left me wanting more. My 2nd car was a yellow 1975 TX Coupe, so many fantastic memories.Talking alternators, the Gemini had Nikki carb with an electric pump. When the alternator quits so did the relay that energised the pump. Bit of a problem when you're on a late date on a Saturday Night! I was not ready for the twist at the end. I too did the SILVIO'S DIAL-A-PIZZA gig 1984/85 .Predomonantly Sunnybank/Capalaba and Wacol. Red Hill was HQ.A lot of us had gemini coupes with webers, extractors and 2 inch systems. silvios was very popular especially footy nights. Silvio and Fel Bevacqua. I wonder if Don knows of the story of Silvio's porsche in a Brisbane City carpark when he got it to squat low enough to catch the motor/ drivetrain on something substantial. The phones on top of 3cyl Charades that seemed to rev forever and manual boxes. Then we had 800cc Altos on unleaded. OMG seriously under powered. Fun Days 👍

    Love this! Never got the Gamini to the US but this reminds me of tearing down and rebuilding my first classic back in the early 2000s. A 1969 Karmann Ghia. These are the best projects (and toughest ones!) (Edit: Apparently the first gen was a Buick/Opel and second gen the Chevy Chevette in the US , which strangely was my first car)

      @@h60memo Just looked it up and your right. And how weird is it that my very first car was an 84 Chevette back in 1999.
