[drakos]

let's introduce myself. my (nick)name is drakos and i'm from the netherlands

and got my omega pick't up today.

it is a 2.5 manual diamont edition from 95.. so full options, climate,electric leather seats, electric window front and rear etc...
on the outside it is dull gray and got some sort of bodykitt i supose 












now the plan; going to rebuild the engine because the headgasket failed (maybe swap it for a 3.0)..completely strip out the interior and only leave a striped dash in place, even the sound deadening and inside off the doors have to go..lightweight fix't windows, 2 bucket seats and a rollcage and that is it... a trackday toy 


will make a topic as soon as i start stripping it out

thanx 

a bit of a update on the omega.. started gutting the inside.
allready taken out most parts that has a bolt in it.. next job is to remove the sound deadening and take out the inside of the doors.
after that the dash is going on a diet and the entire heating will be removed
