Hello! Since my English is poor so I have chosen and use google translate as possible there are some typos, you need only regret it. I thought I could start a project thread of my Opel Omega. When I bought it it looked pretty ugly. Is not nothing nice car yet, but it comes with time Will also build C20NE turbo on it later, but first authenticate lowering and such in the registration document, and take a little rust on it so fun begins: D Here are a couple pictures of how it looked when I got it, and as it is now. Hope you understand what I have written hehe Will also replace interior, the interior from my old car, an Opel Omega 2.0i CLUB 1992, but there is chassi become so bad that I choose and use this chassis.




















Off with the old front and on with the new. Front of Omega A2














Set the original tinted taillights



Installed new exhaust 



More coming soon :p

Hi Jan and welcome you look like you have a real project on your hands  can't wait to see the finished car 
     Firstly remove that BMW badge 

[janrune]

Haha the bmw logo was the first thing i took off :p

[x25dt]

 little bodywork and it will be fine, I'd rather the first bumper

[janrune]

The first bumper was spripset and much damage. Will paint the car but not sure on the color yet. Any tips? : p

[dbug]

Prefer the red bumper with the fogs

[Selseybill]

Looks like someone's emptied their bladder on the rear seat. Loved my old Carlton

[janrune]

Haha I should have said it myself
Seats and everything will be switched to the slightly newer type of Omega (Carlton) Also have a new Omega maybe I should buy that car I will be using in while I fix this demonstrated I wonder and enable one of my old Opel . Here's a picture of it. Need some body work that well, but I have not the heart and throw the car. Some welding stations and wheel arches of this and a little paint work so it will be enough "good as new"


How it looked before. Have had this car for a while, has unfortunately been badly used.







And now it looks like this: (

Nice  The original colour one was the same colour as my old 2.0 carlton ... nice to see another build thread 

[janrune]

Hehe thought and paint it up in the original color again. But it needs to be done with it is and straighten out some dents and welding rust, thought and welding new wheel arches in the morning, thought Opel Vectra A wheel arches, carved out some bows today on old vectraen to a buddy of mine today , need and patching them a little bit but I got that soon enough this car was the first car I had when I got the license, have had several cars before that too, but this car has left its mark on me so have not the heart and do something different one and fix it again. So bet this will be good, will come with the update tomorrow again, and can not wait and start really want and get it ready for summer again :p

[Toledodude1973]

Its great to hear from someone with such enthusiasm

[janrune]

here is a little update. have painted the car now, no show finish when I painted it myself, but was surprisingly good. the car is not quite finished yet, just tucked home then a couple of hours of sleep now, so be it and make it complete, with more pictures tomorrow

[janrune]

hey again! sorry I'm so clever and update but here is a picture of it as it is today. Got my new wheels yesterday, Borbet A, and got me round wheel arches behind aand has cut 1.5 ring on front springs because of the lower back than the front :p even some small things that remain, which blacklists and side skirts and some other stuff

[Johnny English]

Looks much better with A Veccy's arches mate! 

[Murph]
