My 1st car was a brown 79 Gemini, which meant independence as there was no PT where I grew up. Sticking to a theme, 2nd car was an 83 Gemini. Both were great but they developed wiring problems, which seems to be a Holden thing.

Current car is an old commodore which will probably need replacing soonish. I love it, but it’s not economical to run and is starting to develop some issues. It’s a shame because I hate car shopping with a passion. Maybe if I hold onto it long enough it will become collectible and go up in value, lol.
