Zipper Transformation - Post 2 The Work Continues April 26, 2016


Working Through the Worst

During what is likely the hardest week in the history of Chance Rides the best we know to do is to continue the work.  Chance Rides will persevere and it is because of rides like the Zipper and the skilled employees that build them.

Here you will see some of the dis-assembly process as the real work begins on the refurbishment of this Zipper.

 

Some of these seats were a little more stubborn than others in the removal process.  Who among you have been a part of this precarious process?







These are parts being prepped for cleaning, sand blasting and repaint.

        Stay tuned as we bring this beauty back to life!

The Zipper Rides Again!  



Work has begun on the latest Zipper that has come here to be born again.  This Zipper will be completely disassembled, cleaned and rebuilt to leave our factory in like-new condition.  And this rebuild will include a surprising change when it returns to the midway.  Stay with me here to follow along as the process is revealed.
