Hello all,

Last year I've found a cute little Olds 80' Omega in poor condition... but restaurable [img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]

So i decided to buy it and start a provosory restauration.
It's a 1980's model (first next gen X Body, skylark/phoenix clone), with the 2.8 V6 and the TH125 transmision.

I make a big work on the body, and actually I finish the engine work (ignition, carb, etc... setup).

Here's some pics :

When i see it the first time @ the seller (he's got a Park Av too ^^) :

Interior :


The left side, with lot of work [img]smileys/smiley5.gif[/img] :


After some work in the street while i search for a garage :





And in the garage :




My garage... not very nice but hard to found one to rent in my town [img]smileys/smiley19.gif[/img] :


A fender...


A piece of rust metal from the interior of the hood [img]smileys/smiley22.gif[/img]


What in found in the A/C fan :


And after paint shop :




But in real look bad... first time I paint a car, and the condition to do it was not good for a good pait job [img]smileys/smiley6.gif[/img]

But the body is now rust-free and the car looking better [img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img] When i have some money i remake a real paint.

PS : Sorry for my unperfect english [img]smileys/smiley12.gif[/img]
