Cotillion White. Interior is 'gazelle' (really light tan) vinyl.


Yeah the type where the seats bolt through the floor. You'll find many differences between them and the hump floor models.

Some early TX anomalies.

Notice no chasis number on the compliance plate – just ATX. It is also attached by screws.

Image

The prefix “AT” appears to have been added later on the chasis number.

Image

Not sure if this is the original body ID plate as the radiator support panel was swapped for a bolt in radiator type. I think I attached the original.

It's in Dapto called Pic a Part and no, they are not expensive. There really isn't much left of the gems though
Actually, James, that orange coupe is a new one I think as I took the back right side window from the one down there. Is that right? Front guard looks repairable :)

and inregurds about found the first and last gemini, i figured that it would be great to find where the first one is and the last one that was made, wheather it was on the road being drive or in someones garage being rebuilt or rusting away in a wreckers yard somewhere........
