Hi Alan. Love that you are a Parks owner too. I bought mine new about 1992 and have seen no need to replace it. It's a great scope. The mirror was made by renowned Parks optician George Clemens and is a beauty. I wonder if he made your mirror. He engraved his signature on the back. I have always had it mounted on an old Astro Optical Supplies AOS Samson equatorial mount (Australian made sometime in the 1980's) which is very heavy but still works fine. IIS'er Joshua Bunn is making me some tube rings so I can try it on my new HEQ5 mount.
If you haven't looked through your Parks yet you're in for a treat. They have a great rep for a reason. I will never sell mine.
PS mine came with a 2 inch focuser.
