"Cheap, reliable and fast"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Broken linkage in the gearbox.

Head gasket.

Alternator.

Regulator.

A little rust and water leaks.

General comments?

Great little car, just needs more power (eg 80 kilowatts) and better rust protection.

Gets the job done.

We have just recently bought a white TF SL Gemini for $1500, little rust, 3 months rego, and I couldn't agree with you more. Great reliable little car, although has crap box power. Tons of mileage, done at least 10, two and half hour trips within the last 3 months.

I recently bought an 82 Gemini, which currently has a blown head gasket. I'm going to fully rebuild the motor and was wondering if blown head gaskets are a common problem. The car was only owned by old people and never driven hard.

Any main reasons for blowing head gaskets?
