Hi George

The gemini wheels were offered in Australia on a 740 HP turbo or as a option on other 700/900 series cars. I have a set. Below is a link to a pic of my old 82 244 with them on. I have sold that car and the wheels are now on my 86 V6 760 I don't have any picture of that car yet

George-
Gemini is listed as a 700/900 wheel option. It is pretty nice, although not as elegant as Galaxy. Reminds me of some aftermarket cheapies although they are nicer than that sounds. I saw them on a 780 and they were OK. Tough to find, there is a set on Ebay now.

I've only ever seen them on 780's. I first thought they were aftermarket, then much later realized they were Volvo alloys. Pretty cool on any car. V6 780's tend to be worth a lot less than the turbo-4 cars- keep your eyes open. You never know what you'll find in the classifieds. Check www.bargainnews.com regularly too.
