Stock, custom, or competition. Park Lane's are such classy boats, you can't miss.

Starting the body work. First filled in all the holes with stretched sprue and super glue gel... I was surprised how well the interior cleaned up

First coat of primer today. Still lots of filling, sanding and massaging to do but definitely moving forward...

Boy if this isn't "Old school" in a COOL way.
I agree with mack2856, this has all the touches of the masters we love to emulate.
Beautiful color and custom work - 5 Stars!!!

You definitely started with a mess. Could never tell it was the same model.

Quite the save , it turned out beautifully ! It's interesting how clean the interior came out after a dip in the lake , and the molded in detail is far better than most newer kits .

G'day Bob, what paint removal solution do you guys use with a "dip in the lake"?... Caustic Soda or Brake Fluid?... Cheers "Jezza"
