We were playing a spot with them in New York City in the early eighties when they got the first one

WOW looks great done up in the Show colors... Never saw it looking like that.
Before Argentina it looked even better and the cars were the standard silver, which i prefer.

Believe it was sold, can't recall to who?
Wow looks great thanks for posting. With the new spots they have out west wonder why they don't put it on the road?

Before Argentina it looked really good... Sadly did not look as good after!
You know I have never seen Reithoffer's Enterprise in person or picture. I did see one load racked one time in a picture with the tubs, but never set up or running.

Yes they did use it again after it come back. Don't remember for how many seasons after it came back.
If memory serves me correctly they put a neon tube lighting system on it (down the sweeps). In the center there was a big neon "R".
Still had a back wall and lighting along the top of the back wall (wish Strates would put lighting on their Enterprise back wall as it make the ride look better)....

Believe it was Argentina may be late 90’s early 2000’s ?

I know at least a zipper and the Fury never came back and were replaced. I’m sure there were more but don’t recall what. They were able to recover some stuff (Enterprise and others). Guess they were extremely lucky to get anything back…
