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.

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.

The Bag...

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

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.
