What happened to the Ascona? Have you still got it? I've got a LHD 400 replica. Ruan's right hand liked my old Ascona too! .....Luke.
Its still being built and has been for over 3 years now. Should be ready for April 2015 all being well with the engine set up. Its running a Vauxhall C20XE with a rather large Eaton M90 supercharger.
You can see the full build here - clicky
Damn image didn't work
Niiiiiiiiiice. I'd love a Retropower restoration on my Ascona. Mine was built mostly from spare parts I had that weren't good enough to go on my concourse Manta build. I got a 2 door shell for free and built the whole car for about 4 grand. I think I did really well and have ended up with something you can use properly.
