1977 Holden Gemini Sandpiper review from Australia and New Zealand
"Great performing small car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Radiator rusted.
Seats starting to wear.
Rust in the exhaust.
Minor rust starting to creep up.
General comments?
Replaced the standard 1.6L engine with a recondition 1.8L.
Body, paint and interior in great condition considering the car is 26 years old.
Sounds great now with the 2 and a 1/4 inch exhaust with a 4 inch dumper.
Looks tough with the 4 spoke rebels.
