Yeh Johnney Caste still owns the ex-Watkin's Zipper. And we won't be seeing Young's Zipper, it may have been sold to Phillip Zacchini and Dean Davis...

Hmm - interesting I hope it's been sold to get it working again and not just for parts! If anyone knows anything can shed more light on this please do!
