UNKNOWN IF VEHICLE IS COMPLETE, COMES WITH A SELECTION OF SPARES AND PARTS TO INCLUDE SEATS & WINDSCREEN, FIBREGLASS BODY SHELL AND MANY OTHER SOME OF THEM NEWSOME USED. VEHICLE IS UNREGISTERED BUT A LOT OF DOCUMENT WITH IT. A little bit bit of the company Autotune for who doesn't know about it:
Launched by Autotune in 1987 the Gemini is a fine handling sports car that takes its aesthetic influences from the 1950’s Falcon and Elva Sports racing cars.
The Gemini uses mechanical components from the classic rear wheel drive Ford Escort fitted onto an Autotune designed steel spaceframe chassis. The Escort rear axle is modified with brackets added to mount four radius arms and a panhard rod. At the front Ford uprights are used with fabricated double wishbones. Over 30 years of production, the large engine bay has seen many engines fitted. Following the classic influence, the Ford Crossflow, Pinto and V6s, various Twin Cams from Lotus, Lancia, Fiat plus several Triumph, Vauxhall, and Volvo four cylinders have all been used alongside the ageless Rover V8 for those looking for the V8 exhaust note. In more recent years, builders have made use of the later 16 valve Vauxhall, Rover K-Series, Ford Zetec and Duratec motors whilst several incredible modern Motorbike engines have been installed into Gemini chassis to create very exciting motor cars.
