Welcome to OOF
They get brittle with age, so a new one is the way forward...Yes I thought that, and found that SAABits.com in Devon can get them from Sweden in a couple of weeks for £26.78 incl postage, which I know is more than most people spend on an Omega in a year...but I thought I'd splash out! Apparently there are now 492 left in stock over there amongst the pine trees so I hope no one is tempted by the "last one left" ebay listing from Germany for £45 like I nearly was!
'Farid I don't have one, just the vac tube and rubber T's and elbows etc. Sorry...Thanks for looking, I had everything from 3.2 that I broke, but that part must have either been knackered or mistakenly binned in a recent move...
Paddy Hopkirk. Rallying legend.:'(Saw him at a function in Oxford a year or so ago, looked in good health then...
Out of curiosity, do you happen to have any pictures of the Omega estates parked further along?I didn't see any Omega Estates, there was a Rover(Honda)827 and a Volvo Estate, and there might have been an Astra.
“ Introducing: the Hoonipigasus! This is the hill climb beast that I’ll be racing at this year’s Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. It’s a Porsche 911 SVSR, built by BBi Autosport in partnership with Mobil 1, and it’s a one-of-a-kind, mid-engine, twin-turbo, 1400hp, AWD, 1000kg, weapon. This meth-fueled monster is intended to be the world’s ultimate Porsche race car build with the sole purpose of trying to win the top class in the 100th running of the legendary PPIHC race. We’ve also teamed up with former pro snowboarder, musician, and internationally acclaimed street artist Trouble (Trevor) Andrew, a.k.a. Gucci Ghost, to launch this incredible new livery on this build. The livery, color, and name pays homage to the infamous 1971 Porsche 917/20 “Pink Pig”. Lots of work and planning went into this, and this project is just incredible!“..that is literally, "money no object"
Do a google for photos.
Now that sounds like a serious contemnder!
