Title: Where's me panels!?
Post by: Diamond Black Geezer on 12 December 2014, 10:33:14
Arranged for three panels, possibly four from a bloke that sells Omega parts - got them very cheap - driver and rear passenger door and a front wing.

Didn't have a NS rear door, so just the three... then the wing blew over in the wind, and he's managed to lose the rear door. Oh dear!  ;D

So on the hunt for panels again, as per -

Looks a great site, well worth keeping tabs on, unfortunately when I saw the only black Omega on there I couldn't stop 'coffin'.  :y
