Code 3 9400A Four Alarm Project

Picked up this little BIG honey recently, I thought about parting it out originally. But as it sat there it kind of grew on me and I decided that I could use a display bar in the garage. Needs eight bulbs which I have on order and a good wet sanding and general cleaning. From what I can tell this bar was built in the early 90s, it came off a Fire Engine. Believe it or not, the FD didn't want to spend the time tracking down the bulbs. LOL This will be my first Sealed Beam Bar.

I see a date of 10/23/91 on a motor, so your bar likely would have been made late in 1991. The amp draw on these things is enormous, so you will need a hefty power supply.

That's for sure, someone had a few 100 watt bulbs in it as well. I'm going to swap them out with the right bulbs. I have a 200 amp battery charger to run it.
