Unanswered: Wheels that fit a 74-75 Ascona?

Okay gentlemen, as you all know I'm going to buy the old Opel Ascona 1900 sedan that is sitting at my grandfather's place. They are officially selling the place in two weeks, so I need to find some wheels that will fit it so that I can put it on a trailer and move it. So, what's the bolt pattern for them? Is there a domestic car that has wheels that fit it and look pretty good? I think the diesel option is the way I'm going, and then running it on vegetable oil or biodiesel. take that you sorry raghead millionaires!

If you just want something to roll the car around on, Chevrolet Chevette or Pontiac 1000 wheels are the right bolt pattern. Anything that has a 4 lugs on a 100mm bolt circle will work. Honda, BMW,etc.

Any that'll look good on an Ascona? Its an orangish/red color... Found teh original pics I took of it...
Opel Ascona 1900
I know one thing, the interior is definitely getting bug bombed before I begin working on it, as the last tag on it was in 1984... Sure dont wanna find any backyard mechanic's worst nightmare in there... (wasps, snakes, etc...)

One more thing, what's the MPGs that you get out of a 1.9L Opel with a 5 speed?
