Well I started doing a clean up on my Omega Race with all intentions
of just tossing it in the basement and playing it. Well found one flaw then
another, then more arrgh. Okay so I've decided to do a restoration on it.
Started by stripping the side art (which was all cracked) then gutted most
of the cab. The lack of t-molding is bugging me out (Dam you Midway).
The sides and front are melamine which has quite a few dings in it (colored in with marker).
Its got some water damage on the bottom edge so I'll clean that up with the
sander.
I think I am going to rough it up with the sander, prime it using an oil based
primer and then spray it with a black gloss oil paint. I'll hold off on the kick plate
until I can figure out whether I can get the artwork or not.
I'll put up some gutted pics later.
