Skerbeck Brothers currently operates on that has a red trailer and red tower, with white hub and white sweeps, only thing is, no sign, and the seats are black, which is different. It has all turbo lights on it, no fluorescents.

Myers had one on their show that was nice, and Snyders of PA has a really nice one. I think both have the SWINGER sign on top. I have to find the pics.

Doolans looks real cool! I still think the Swinger is a great ride; all you need to do is give it a little TLC and it will look as good as new and still ride people!

Heres Windy Citys- its kinda a bad pic but you get the idea:

the problem is the space it takes up. we play alot of streets where it is tuff to lay it down sometimes
it takes a 80 foot circle.

The trailer and tower were repainted blue after I took these photos.

But the rest stayed the same.
