INSPIRATIONAL

When restoring your Lewis it's hard to go past the original colours and timber selections. This pic shows a totally unmolested Frank Lewis finish that could be used as a guide for a Restorer. ( This was one of the late Clem Kings Lewis fleet )

Vintage film footage:

Not sure if this has been posted here before. I have put the link on a District History Site sometime ago.

The film from the 9 minute mark relates to Albert Park. The rest is Gippsland history.

Re: Thunda Babe

RE: Thunda Babe Going very well, will be interesting to see what the bottom lines do to the Hulls ride. Although close copy of the old, the beauty of wood is there will be differences. May yet see 70mph ??

The Builder I watched the most fitted Ribs inside Hull before it was released from Forms. Some Ribs were "Boiled" in certain Ship Yards.
