Classic Omega resto mod

[moparman_aidan]

Hello everyone, new here to the forum. I would like to show my latest project, a restored Classic Omega with an updated bag from a Sentria 2....

Classic Omega

All the plastics, bumper, cord were in excellent shape.

Wow

That looks really nice.  I like the way the Sentria II bag looks with it.  BTW, it looks like the handle fork is from a Classic instead of the Classic Omega.  The wood grain decal in the Omega is darker, and it has the Kirby name with an an Omega emblem underneath it.  Here is a picture of my Omega I bought at a thrift store last year.  Not as nice as yours, but it will buff out beautifully when I get time.

Omega

Lol this pic was before I replaced the handle label. Acetone didn't have a problem melting away the Kirby omega lettering... I wasn't too pleased afterwards. Oh well lesson learned.

Clean looking classic omega there

That ought to buff out real nice, hope to see it when finished.

The Bag...

Is the finishing touch! I might have to get a Sentria II bag for my Restored Omega, now!

Nice job, like the cool update too

Damn...

imo the bag looks more at home there than on a Sentria II.

I really like it! The colors just work and am sure the filtration is much improved!

For a daily driver the filtration is great

Combined with the cloth bags and the metal fan it is insane how powerful this thing is.
