Finally done with this little project. I found an old 420 beacon that a local guy was using on his plow truck. It had a very poor shape amber dome and a rough chord with suction cup mounts that were all weathered and cracked.
Inside the "guts" were actually pretty good and not ruined by salt. I found a new base and dome on Ebay. I found a guy with a bunch of filters in red, blue and brand new green ones. Also used a set of magnets, and a new chord I had. A bit of wet sanding, polishing, and cleaning and here she is!
I'll upload video to my YouTube soon.
Here she is in red/ blue:
