I started restoring my Omega Race today.. I'm mostly finished
stripping down the cab of parts. I knew the kick plate art would have to be
replaced since its trashed. I had a fellow collector send me the kick plate
from an OR he was parting out so I could scan it easily, clean it up, and make
a replacement.
I put the two side by side tonight.. At first I thought it was a different
revision until I realized the one on the top had a rubber kick plate protector
over the lower portion of the artwork and the one on the bottom did not.
The one on the top must have been sitting in the sun to bleach ALL the red
and purples out of the exposed artwork.
