Omega Info

The 1973 model year brought the Oldsmobile Omega to General Motors X body line up.

The '74 Omega had very little differences from the '73 other than the front bumper and turn signal location. The major difference is the Government mandated bumpers that were heavier, had a collapsable shock mounting and stuck out farther.

In 1974 Oldsmobile had an "S" sport option available.

The 1975 model year brought a new body style and front subframe to the Omega. The '75 -'79 Omega's were very similar with only subtle changes, mainly to the tail lights and grills.

Options on the later Omega included the F85 and SX packages.

All years were available in 2 door coupe, 2 door hatchback coupe and 4 door models. An optional tent package was available in '73-'74.

In 1980 The X-body platform went to a front wheel drive version that lasted to 1984.
