TC Gemini Coupe
Re: TC Gemini Coupe
So I have got as far as painting everything forward of the door hinges, allowing me to do the final mounting of the guards, etc.

Re: TC Gemini Coupe
Yeah look at Moleys coupe.
He was having problems uploading. I'd help but he said I was retarded so I've forgotten how

Re: TC Gemini Coupe
What colour did you end up going with? Looks too orange to be Mandarin?

Re: TC Gemini Coupe
Just a suggestion.
Fit the doors temporarily (if you did not) when you fit the guards so you can adjust the gap and alignment with the door. I have made this mistake before.

Re: TC Gemini Coupe
Cheers people!!!
yeah i will fit the doors with bolts to line up the gaps.
code is: 15953 but the guy at the paint shop said it didnt come up. So he cross referenced 1F072.
i think they had the code right, just didnt put enough red in.

Re: TC Gemini Coupe
1F072 is definitely Mandarin....interesting. I wonder if there wasnt two batches/mixes of it that were slightly different like there was with Ford Blueprint; mixture varied between AU S3 and BA, ended up being almost two completely different colours. Either way fresh paint looks good regardless of colour.

Re: TC Gemini Coupe
Update-
Sold the 4Spd, got a 5 speed & mated it up to a stock 1.6L Runner that I picked up to get this thing running sooner.
New clutch & bearing, ext housing seal, Motor & box dropped in, tailshaft fitted, cables attached.
Front end lined up, everything tightened.
Extractors heat wrapped, & new exhaust done as far as the diff, that's as far as I have got.
