Hi
Any Autotune Geminis out there for sale please? Complete cars/project vehicles. Would prefer an old Q plate car in need of a rebuild but still
complete.
Cheers
Mike

I try to keep an eye out and I’m only aware of one Gemini currently for sale:

Hi Tim
Many thanks
Something like:
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Autotune-Gemini-1600cc-SVA-and-correctly-registered-No-Reserve/132069949236?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3
D1%26asc%3D50545%26meid%3D987728e01373439cad0474086d3095ae%26pid%3D100013%26rk%3D8%26rkt%3D12%26sd%3D371694179399%26itm%3D132069949236&_trksid=p20
47675.c100013.m1986
would be good.
There was a Rover V8 powered one for sale a while back that looked tempting.
How is your build going?
Cheers
Mike
Hi Mike,
Build is going okay thanks - finishing touches and professional set-up is all that’s left.
I’ll let you know if I spot anything.
Good luck! It took me a while to track down my Gemini. Since I bought it a couple of years ago I've kept an eye on the market but very rarely see them come up.
As one project finished on eBay another was listed - couple of days to go.
Gemini
I should have bought the Alfa engined project that came up moons ago - did that ever get finished?

I have been storing an Autotune Gemini for nearly 20 years in my workshop. Dry stored on stands after complete respray. This winter once I have
contacted the owner (Abroad) I will be taking the body off, and checking all mechanicals, and getting an MOT on it. The current car has a mark 2
escort dash fitted but I have a complete set of smiths gauges/instruments and warning lights from a vintage triumph to fit.
Depending on what the owner wants the car may be sold prior to the work.
Please let me know if anyone would be interested in the car before or after the work.
The car is on an R plate and not a Q plate.
I have to make way for a TR7 V8 restoration in the new year.

HI,
It's a 1.6 escort engine with a 4 speed gearbox, I am waiting for the owner to get in touch, but I think it was correctly registered as a gemini.
Howard Wilkinson has one with a V8 in it You may be able to contact him through his son who owns Ski Switzerland, on Facebook.....Don't know
whether it is road legal but has an MSA logbook

I have now been sent the V5 and it shows the make as Autotune Gemini Ford 1599cc.
Hi
Thanks for the further info. Any pics please?
Also where is it located?
Thanks
Mike
A bare Gemini chassis has popped up:
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Autotune-Gemini-Kit-Car-Chassis-new-unused-c-w-wishbones-and-5-link-rear/173597311493?hash=item286b34c205:g:d2IAAOSwMsJbn9c
8
Pity I did not buy the cheap secondhand body that was for sale in the West Mids a few years ago!
Checked with Autotune and they still sell the kit and in modular form, so a new body can be bought (approx £2k, extra for flip front option).
Cheers
Mike

Yes I have finally relisted the car. Later today I will take photographs for eBay showing that there should be everything required to put the exterior
items back on the car.
On the V5 its Date of first registration is 06 04 1977 so does this make it MOT and Tax exempt?
Thank you
Lyndon

I`ve been trying to locate a Gemini I built many years ago. The reg was PUK...R it was british racing green with a Fiat 1800 twin cam and 5 spd gearbox with minilite wheels and aero screens. Love to know if it is still around, it had a galvanised chassis so won`t have rusted away.
A number of the older cars have gone overseas. It could be that yours is one of them.
Hi
Any Autotune Gemini chat - new projects, progress with existing projects? Tim C how is your car?
Cheers

Interesting aesthetic on this one but build quality looks rather nice...

Is this top wishbone meant to be like this?

Believe it or not, those are the standard wishbones, yes.
Somewhat agricultural I agree - mine are very different. That said, never heard of an issue other than the aesthetic one.
