Swedish 1969 Dart GT + 1964 Dart GT
Built a "new" Ascona B all by myself except for the roll cage which I got helped by a licensed welder.
Rally career took an end in 2000. Family and house took all time and money and sold the car. But what to do without a project in the garage?
Started a build on a rusty Ascona B. The idea was a turbocharged engine based on a 2,0 litre Opel and body light as hell. Started fabricate parts in fibreglass.
Here is a link to that build KMA-Opeltuning If you scroll down to the bottom right of the page there is a text Äldre inlägg where you can go back to the beginning. I dont know , maybe you can translate the page.
I have always been fascinated of the old yanks and I have always wanted one. Got this Dart for about $6000 in 2014. I drove it two years 2015-16 and then teared it down 2017 as you can see in this thread. It was very priceworthy due to the rust and bad roof. I think after theese years I have owned the car , thank god I bought a MoPar. MoPar have SO many cool models compared to Chevy Ford etc. and very good aftermarket in parts. Dart is quite a small and light car and as a friend said to me visiting my garage "it looks to go fast though it is standing still". I dont regret my buy for one second due to all issues.
Only God know how much I am going to spend before finished :) So far in sheet metal and parts I have probably spent $10-12000 and still going :)
I have always been interested in cars and I started with rallying 1988 in a Opel Ascona A. This photo is from one of the last races , just later we went into a ditch and the car was wrecked.
