I doubt you are able to read all the comments but it would be fantastic if you put round headlights in your Gemini, And that car looks very similar to my 1969 Toyota sprinter fast back!
Come on guys you could at least take it back to bare metal. You cans call it a full resto if you don’t even take the paint off. I can’t wait to see all the shrink backs in a couple of years. And was that galvanised tin he was welding in? That’s not what you use. 😮

I love the throwback videos like this. It shows young people that you can start knowing nothing and learn as you go. Trial and error is the best teacher in the world. Neve stop paying, guys. The world is behind you.
@@mightycarmods Its so awesome that you put all this music together yourself. Thats a huge inspiration for me everytime I think about it. Been dreaming of a YT channel to do car adventures and making the music myself for a long time. Keep it going guys, youre the heros of my automotive world
Love how you guys are still doing the very same thing 16 years on, only now on a much larger scale because of the network you both have built, inspirational to say the least 👍🏻
A USA 1976 Isuzu/Opel (Gemini Coupe) was my 2nd car in 1982! I added a Weber carbie, "frenched" the turn signals and door handles and painted it yellow. I loved it because NO ONE even knew what it was. Neither did the car parts store. 2 years later I had to junk it because I couldn't get any parts.
@@StanleyKubick1 It happens more with older cars like this cause most people never garage kept them, so they rusted out and most people wouldn't pay for repair of rust cause cars were soooo cheap back then. I only know this cause my step dad ownes a bunch of vintage Vauxhall and other brand vintage cars. He keeps all his spare parts in massive sheds he stripped of similar make and models
Remember them being called Opel Isuzu by Buick in 78-79. A friend had the 2dr coupe’ in monkey vomit green. Another friend had one that was beige with a tan interior. Who spec’d that from new??
I want to take a moment to thank you mates for you humor ingenuity craftynesss. Filming voice over editing. All spot on. I live in the states and with the utter insanity. It’s nice to find you 2 guys just a messing around with older cars. Thanks mates
Love em & miss them almost daily. Memories with my mates back in the day are the best & unforgettable. I had 3 coupes back in the 80's, a TX (yellow) , TC (green) & TD (white). One with balanced, blueprinted 1600, twin 45mm side draft webers, cam, exhaust etc. Also member of the Gemini Car Club. Really looking forward to the series ahead !!
My first car was a vauxhall chevette here in the UK Poster was instantly bought . Got it when I was 17 for 200 pounds . So many memories .33 years later and I still miss it.
My dad had a white Chevrolet Chevette here in Brazil dude, oh the memories! hahahahaha I much rather like how the name Chevette rings, I didn't want to be mean to the boys but gemini sounds so weird!
Martin I too delivered Dominos pizza in my gold Gemini coupe with tartan interior named Bad Gem. (Sticker on back window) Out in Sydney’s west in the early 1990s. I had 13” 4 spoke chrome Dragways 😂 purchased from Bob Jane T mart.
Me too stumbled upon mcm in about 2008 budget Galant track car and subscribed also from the max power era got my licence in 97 , had many a nugget for many years worked on improved by myself on mother's driveway .
I had a Max power sticker in the back window of my Mk2 Astra and thought I was the boss. Of course I was 18 and couldn't afford a GTE so I had a 1.3L with a blown head gasket weighed down with half of halfords but I still thought I was Colin McRae
The music in this video was excellent!!!!! Please make as much of it available as you dare Moog! So awesome to see Marty so enthusiastic, clearly a lot of memories and emotion for these cars in him.
Ohhhh!! I am loving that the Gemini pizza-delivery series is kicking off!! Still just 2 minutes in, but had to comment. Also, I suspect there is gonna be heeeeaps of "Doncha mean, Opel Kadett?", "isn't that a Chevrolet Chevette?", etc... comments. Lol
I have a 1979 Vauxhall Chevette over here in NZ that still registered, warrented, original carby engine, runs like an old mans dream. It's even harder to find parts for then this thing because it's a 2 door wagon! Never seen another one on the road! Been looking forward to this series for ages, it will give me a boost and some inspiration to tidy mine up!
The Gemini coupe was my automotive awakening. Dad built a black one ironically in the mid 90s when I was 5 or 6 years old.. I was obsessed with it, I would draw pictures of it in pre school and everything 😂
My excitement is through the roof for you guys! I've been waiting for this build since the auction video all those years ago. It has inspired me to get back to work on my mk2 escort.
I like Chevettes, the uk had a 2.3litre 16valve slant 4 hatchback known as a HS/HSR, it was a beast introduced in 1978, 135bhp, 135lb ft torque. Changed direction like a kitten chasing a spider, quick for its day. This Kadett style will be a great little restomod, can’t wait? Thanks MCM for all you do. 🙏🏼
Seems like everyone but the US got a cool version of the Chevette. We just got 'dull commuter car' or 'even duller commuter car' options. That said, a friend of mine has one that he's swapped a Subaru EZ30 into, behind the seats. It's absolute madness, to the point that it's had to be taken down to the shell and seam-welded because it was tearing itself apart.
@@musewolfman Yes, there has been some cool special versions of the Kadett (and it's derivates). UK had the wild HSR, mainland europe got the "Aero", "Rallye" and the GT/E. Good old times!
I love how the project cars have gotten more nuggety and unique. Been here since the radio install and “blue turd” days; yall are by far my favorite channel-much love from the US 🇺🇸
My brother was a huge Gemini fan, it was my first car also. He once found a gramps spec coup and was so proud of it. I crashed into it on the day he got it, and wrote it off. He didn't complain a bit and his first concern was my well being. He passed a little while ago, thanks for jogging my memory. Want to sell this once it's done?
I think they've had a 2.0 16v (Z20LET/LEH or C20) ecotec sat on the shelf in the background for years at this point. I can only assume that's for this Kadett, people have called it out in the past.
Aside from the amazing work that went into the car, the production and the direction of this video, I have to give you extra credit for the soundtrack. You've always produced fantastic music on your videos but this time you outdid yourselves! Hats down to you, truly!
@18:42 _"Alright, there's some silver in there, some black, some grey, some white some red, some blue, could be anything."_ This means this car is going to be metallic *brown or maroon* because brown _paint_ can be made by mixing red and blue.
Thanks for having me as your special guest, you really made sure i enjoyed it like a holiday , feeding me and showing me around the Sydney workshops ..much appreciated. Dazz
This is the one build I've been waiting for the most. My first car was a TD gemini, which I delivered pizzas in too! Thankyou for allowing my younger self to live vicariously through this build. So many memories resurfacing of cruising with mates in my absolute nugget and having the time of my life. Love your work guys!
Makes me pine for my first car - a Mk2 Escort. It was far rustier 30 years ago than your Gemini is today :) Have a look at yorkshire car restoration for proper rust repair
Finally it's here!! I'm coming along nicely on my own Opel Kadett C City C20XE build and I'm soo super stoked I get to watch this unfold while I'm still working on my own version as well!
I’m always amazed how you guys really master the camera/editing/sound track on your videos… pure joy to watch! Thank you so much for elevating the internet!
One of my neighbours had this car in yellow when i was a kid, i used to pass that house just to look at the car in his yard. Years passed and the car dissapeared. When i got my licence i tried to find the same car but i was out of luck..... happy to see someone i love watching gives us a trip down memory lane. Thank you :)
Have been watching you guys since the beginning, and this video is yet another great inspiration to all of us. Your enthusiasm for this car, the process, the results, it is contagious. Thanks for taking us along for the ride❤
Haha what an absolute tease! My goodness this build has been such a long time coming, and it's already meeting all expectations! I love it so much! Can't wait to see more.
Why oh why are these two crazy Aussies the most wholesome thing to do with cars on the inter-balls??? Humble and simple... and just so good... when they start a big build... i get so excited... 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
The EGR valve, the ignition coil - those things may go away, but if you haven't learned anything from Bad Obsession Motorsports ... KEEP THE BRACKETS! When you realize you need a place to mount something, you might find that EGR bracket is great for some controller box, and the coil bracket will hold your fuel filter. There's even already a place you might be able to put the bracket, without drilling new holes and adding nutserts.
Well done guys! I can understand the hard work going into this build, my TE Gemini doesn’t have much rust but what it does have is currently being cut out and replaced, it’s a huge time and cost but I’m happy I have a very clean tidy car that I can still drive around while having some rust removed. Can’t wait to see this when finished and hopefully see this Gemini at the Gemboree 2024 in Mount Gambier in November
Did my lessons and test in a Gemini. Ground up Rebuilt an Opel Manta B here in Australia in 2013, they are very similar, strut towers torque tube etc, this build is already giving me flashbacks. Looking forward to the rest of this!
11:28 Tip for next time you're fighting these bitumen sheets: dry ice. Just throw some dry ice in, let everything cool down and then tap it with a rubber mallet. It'll all shatter and come off clean and easy. No need busting your knuckles and scraping it all off in little chunks at room temp. ;)
Flashback to 2005, i wouldve been 13. My brother gets his first car and its a gemini. I remember helping him fit the new head unit.. as well as paint the interior vents and trim in metallic green 🤌 What a time
Great video boys! Love all the smiles and excitement in this! Definitely not faking the fun and the passion you guys have for this crazy hobby we all enjoy! Looking forward to seeing this awesome little pizza delivery vehicle done tip to tail, and thank Dominos for helping make it happen!
FINALLY!!!! LOL. Been looking forward to this build since you've had the car Marty. Watched this episode as soon as I saw it. Your first Gemini brings back memories. I had exactly the same model and colour Gemini back in the young years. Loved it and had fun driving it. Was about to start doing mods with it when I got t-boned by a lady coming through a give way sign and writing it off. It was a sad day in deed. Hanging out for the next video already.
My first car was a 1982 Mitsubishi Sigma (Galant in some places). Cost me 300 dollarydos. I miss that car but I doubt I'm gonna be able to afford another one sadly. Look forward to seeing the finished result.
Ah man, so excited for this build! I just thought this car was such a weird nugget back all those years ago when you guys bought the car, and about three years ago one of my now best mates had a C Kadett. Best shitbox ever. Had a tape stuck in it that only played 'what is love' and I miss that car every day. Can't wait to see the result!
Man don't get me wrong things like the Cube are fun, but seeing you guys get stuck in to an actual project that you seem to have a lot of sentimental attachment to is the reason I've watched you fellas for a decade. Looking forward to everything about this.
What a way to end an episode we've all been waiting so long to see 😂 As someone possibly a little older than you Marty seeing this build is bringing back some memories of my own from when cruising around as a teen. We had a conversation a few years back at Penrith supercheap about my intention to build a gemgem as a circuit car but sadly it worked out cheaper to buy an early BMW 315i and drop the 5ltr ìnto it. So looking forward to the rest of the series and hopefully seeing the old girl out in the wild in the future 🫡
Love it Boys, I Still have my Gem, A rolling shell painted with interior done. been sitting for 24 years under a car cover in a garage. Giving me inspiration to finish it now...
I had a mad 1978 Holden Gemini Panel Van as my second car when I was at Uni. Red, mags, extractors, hot dogs. It looked like a fat shark! Gonna love this build.
I own a 1966 Mustang 289 Coupe. You can fix EVERYTHING in that car, and the 289 with cherry bombs is one of the best sounds on earth. Love those old cars for the stories and history and everything they’ve seen, modern cars can’t compare
Finally! I own a 1984 Pontiac Acadian(Canadian variant of that car) and have wanted to see you guys build this car since the first video of it was uploaded. Super cool seeing a T-Body video
I used to have a slammed red tx gemini coupe with the td front end. Engine bay was polished everything with with a g180 carby turbo setup. Loved that car.
It's FINALLY HAPPENING! Get your poster here for a limited time only: mightycarmods.com/products/limited-edition-gemini-poster-autographed

I was thinking the same thing as you and come to the same conclusion hahah😂
That was the exact same reaction, as a kadett b owner that wants a kadett c with a c20xe im a happy man seeing them build this car

When you realize you need a place to mount something, you might find that EGR bracket is great for some controller box, and the coil bracket will hold your fuel filter. There's even already a place you might be able to put the bracket, without drilling new holes and adding nutserts.
I'm 54 and my 1st car was a Vauxhall Chevette which in the UK is same sh*t different bucket as a Gemini, big love for keeping it real :)
I can't believe i waited about five years for this. So glad this is happening!
Ahhh you’re killing us with the suspense! 😂 Can’t wait to see the final product!
I'm so glad you guys decided to split this into separate episodes and go into detail
This is the build I've been waiting for. I have driven plenty of Geminis in my life, awesome little cars.
Well done guys! I can understand the hard work going into this build, my TE Gemini doesn’t have much rust but what it does have is currently being cut out and replaced, it’s a huge time and cost but I’m happy I have a very clean tidy car that I can still drive around while having some rust removed.
Can’t wait to see this when finished and hopefully see this Gemini at the Gemboree 2024 in Mount Gambier in November
Did my lessons and test in a Gemini.
Ground up Rebuilt an Opel Manta B here in Australia in 2013, they are very similar, strut towers torque tube etc, this build is already giving me flashbacks.
Looking forward to the rest of this!
11:28 Tip for next time you're fighting these bitumen sheets: dry ice. Just throw some dry ice in, let everything cool down and then tap it with a rubber mallet. It'll all shatter and come off clean and easy. No need busting your knuckles and scraping it all off in little chunks at room temp. ;)
Flashback to 2005, i wouldve been 13. My brother gets his first car and its a gemini. I remember helping him fit the new head unit.. as well as paint the interior vents and trim in metallic green 🤌
What a time
This is the build I have been waiting for. Its been ages coming and im so freaking excited
Great video boys! Love all the smiles and excitement in this! Definitely not faking the fun and the passion you guys have for this crazy hobby we all enjoy! Looking forward to seeing this awesome little pizza delivery vehicle done tip to tail, and thank Dominos for helping make it happen!
I love you guys so much that I don’t skip a single add
You and I and Gemini, oooohhh ooohh ooohh. That advertisement lives rent free in my head to this day.
FINALLY!!!! LOL. Been looking forward to this build since you've had the car Marty. Watched this episode as soon as I saw it.
Your first Gemini brings back memories. I had exactly the same model and colour Gemini back in the young years. Loved it and had fun driving it. Was about to start doing mods with it when I got t-boned by a lady coming through a give way sign and writing it off. It was a sad day in deed.
Hanging out for the next video already.
I am so stoked to watch this build! Can’t wait to see how great this car will be!
My first car was a 1982 Mitsubishi Sigma (Galant in some places). Cost me 300 dollarydos. I miss that car but I doubt I'm gonna be able to afford another one sadly.
Look forward to seeing the finished result.
Thought I'd missed out on the posters as I'm only just seeing the video. So stoked as you guys say from a fan in England.
Been waiting to see the gemini build! sooo excited to see it come along and what you will do with it! such a neat little car.
Ah man, so excited for this build! I just thought this car was such a weird nugget back all those years ago when you guys bought the car, and about three years ago one of my now best mates had a C Kadett. Best shitbox ever. Had a tape stuck in it that only played 'what is love' and I miss that car every day. Can't wait to see the result!
The time has come. I waited so long to follow this series. Time to go back watching.
Man don't get me wrong things like the Cube are fun, but seeing you guys get stuck in to an actual project that you seem to have a lot of sentimental attachment to is the reason I've watched you fellas for a decade. Looking forward to everything about this.
Rust never sleeps, it only eats. Super excited for this one!
What a way to end an episode we've all been waiting so long to see 😂
As someone possibly a little older than you Marty seeing this build is bringing back some memories of my own from when cruising around as a teen.
We had a conversation a few years back at Penrith supercheap about my intention to build a gemgem as a circuit car but sadly it worked out cheaper to buy an early BMW 315i and drop the 5ltr ìnto it.
So looking forward to the rest of the series and hopefully seeing the old girl out in the wild in the future 🫡
I've literally been waiting years for this project. I'm so psyched it's finally happening!
my nana had a gemini wagon when i was little ever since ive wanted one.. cool to see you 2 doing this one.
Love it Boys, I Still have my Gem, A rolling shell painted with interior done. been sitting for 24 years under a car cover in a garage. Giving me inspiration to finish it now...
Go the Gemmi! One of my mates in college had one, he'd swapped out for the 2.0 Isuzu engine with Weber, cams and extractors. Went hard.
There's a nostalgic sort of peaceful feeling watching your videos guys. I hope you don't stop until retirement.
I had a mad 1978 Holden Gemini Panel Van as my second car when I was at Uni. Red, mags, extractors, hot dogs. It looked like a fat shark! Gonna love this build.
This is awesome!! I use to deliver for dominos as well, had the fastest delivery times with my 2017 awc lancer! JeffySpeedRacer was my nickname 🤣
Moog, you smashed it with the tunes on this one!
I own a 1966 Mustang 289 Coupe. You can fix EVERYTHING in that car, and the 289 with cherry bombs is one of the best sounds on earth. Love those old cars for the stories and history and everything they’ve seen, modern cars can’t compare
Boys I’m so pumped for this build project !!! Restoring a car like this takes love ❤️ and patience but the end result will be so worth it !!! 😜👍🇦🇺
Finally! I own a 1984 Pontiac Acadian(Canadian variant of that car) and have wanted to see you guys build this car since the first video of it was uploaded. Super cool seeing a T-Body video
I used to have a slammed red tx gemini coupe with the td front end. Engine bay was polished everything with with a g180 carby turbo setup. Loved that car.
