Yep, that photo is sweet. Thanks for posting. One of the better ones I've seen aside from the one in the Chronical article. -
What happened to Sparky? Is she still around? Did you have trouble attaching your photo? Was it the same one Sparkey posted a while back?

I guess they all closed down. I know Alfred's closed. But I believe his son operates a very similar deli in the Rice Village and has photos of his dad's old place. I'm sure the answers are somewhere on this board. Would be a lot faster just to tell you if I knew.

The sports car ride, if I remember correctly was called Spin Out. Several years ago, before Astroworld had even closed down, someone in Sealy Tx was selling the fibreglass bodies from two of the Spin Out cars. They were quite large; in the 6' long range. The two car bodies ended up selling for something like $20! I considered bidding on them, but what do you do with something like that?!
