Mark;
They never did the Ascona sedan, although in Germany they did a bunch of tape kits for the Sedan. Here, they just did the wagons, in fact, our own Charles Goin still has an OEM wood grain kit for a Ascona Wagon.

Here's a picture of an Ascona wagon not only with wood grain sides, but, a vinyl top too (can you say ugly?
) The other picture is a Sedan with one of the many stripe kits they used.

My, that wagon is the ugliest Opel I have ever seen, though taste is in the eye of the holder. It looks like a mini hearse. Would have been good in Wayne's World as a stand in for the Pacer.
