mate you deserve some sort of OOF medal/award.

i remember seeing the pics early jan (i think) but i dont get much time now to come on here. to see all that hard work pay off is awsome.

so is it just cambelt to do now? has it set u much back in total?

bloody well done - honorary OOF member!!!!!!! :y :y :y :y

I think everyone has had a bit of a Susan Boyle moment with your Elite. Comes on, rather rough around the edges and then comes forth and makes the world shine (or in this case, fellow OOF'ers lol!!)
Totally love it, you have done a fantastic job and now its time to get the working bits done that will keep you smiling, like that cambelt lol!!

Thanks very much for all your comments!! So far including MOT owes me just over £300.

That said in the true style of creative accounting for the wife, consumables and wear and tear items are excluded, so actually I've spent nothing  ;D  8-)

 :yAll the best with the project :y, it will be worth following this through on this topic, its the same colour as mine so will be interested how it turns out.
 ;D And as already has been said nice to see an Omega being restored rather than scrapped.. :(

Hi there
Just like to say.... great find and good luck and work hard on the project. I'm on the scout for a miggy right now too. 2.5 V6 manual is my target. Love that colour!
Best regards
Anthony :y

Current plan is to get it on the road in September when the MOT and tax run out on the cav 4x4. If that passes then I'll sell that and start looking for my ideal Omega- essentially exactly what I've got but an estate!

Still got cambelt and stuff to do, but have some time in September before cav MOT runs out to do that.

Will keep updates and photos as it get cleaned up and serviced.

Started on the cambelt today and got a little more than I bargained for  :o





There's the rat evidence then, at least the Omega had the last laugh  ;D

Cambelt done timing was out about a tooth on the left bank suspect last change happened without the tools!! Insurance starts on the 7th just the few remaining  service bits and a clean and it'll be done. WOOHOO!
