A few pictures of an Ascona that I'm restoring.
Sunroof is original.
Will strip it down completely to fix all the rust and then paint it.
Motor will be a 2.0 with Weber 32/36 and 4-speed gearbox.
Signalgrün Ascona -75

Welcome Mikko
Nice to see a poison green coloured Ascona A in the hometown of Volvo and Saab...
How did you get the Ascona?? Did he always run in your homecountry?? And with your colour you'll get one of the biggest friends from Björnieboy Teufelsrochen....which means "Devilsray!" What about your engine? You want a 2.0 with Double Carburators?? Then you need more than a 36 Weber....it is too small. I think a 45 Weber is the "must have" for this engine.
Nice greetings from Germany

Thank you.The Ascona was sold new here in Sweden.
The last 2 or 3 years it has been standing outside without anyone taking care of it so I contacted the owner and bought it.About the engine, just to begin with I will use a standard 2.0 from a Rekord E1 and replace the original carburator with ONE 36/36.
Later I will probably build another engine with 2 Weber 45. -

Looks like this is a very popular color.
But my Ascona is the only one in this color that I have seen.

HiIt has been repainted once but in original color.
Same color under the dashboard so I'm pretty sure it really is Signalgrün.I live outside a small town called Köping. About 300km north of Jönköping.

Took off the doors today.
No picture with both doors gone.

Nice colour!

Long time since I updated this thread but here are some pictures of what the car looks like now.
Engine is installed and it has been painted inside, off course in Signalgrün.
And a picture of my other car, an unrestored Kadett Coupé -75.

They are hard to find these days but I guess we have a lot of old people that only use their cars during summer.
And cars that come from the northern parts of Sweden are usually in better condition then cars from the southern parts. -
Much Snow, less Salt
