I'd settle for a hand screw, as long as the cover was removed! :twisted: :oops:

This is a Texas Craigslist find of a $200 lightbar made from 3 individual ones off bombed out Iraqi police vehicles!!! It must be a real Frankenstein job because the three bars that are pictured are an Aerodynic, a Streethawk, and a Jetsonic. Pics of the bars still on the vehicles are included.

Hmm, wonder how they took 3/4 and made 1, considering it looks like there's a Jet, an Aerodynic, an MX, and a Streethawk... WTF, Fraken-bar???? :bonk:

Vintage Federal Signal Twinsonic Lightbar - $650

This is a vintage Federal Signal Twinsonic lightbar, used by the Los Angeles Fire Department in the 1970's and 1980's. I purchased this and a siren at auction several years ago and planned to build a vintage fire truck but that never happened. This is in excellent working order and has no cracks, blemishes or rust. I have the original mounting brackets for it also. This is the same light used on the paramedics truck on the 1970's television show "EMERGENCY!". See photos below. I had to replace one lens due to buying it without the driver side lens. The lens alone cost me $100. I will not negotiate, but might trade for the right professional audio gear/speakers/amplifiers, etc. Doug 508-7589

Came from the Los Angeles Area Police was used in 1978 or so. Nice piece for a rat rod . Has wail, yelp and hi-lo sounds and is a 100 watt siren. Just like an ambulance. Works excellent and it's loud. Good luck finding one this nice anywhere else. And to the Craigslist Flag Police; THIS IS LEGAL TO OWN AND SELL IN VIRGINIA. TRUST ME, I KNOW. Doug 508-7589

He said he got the Twinsonic without the driver's side dome, and since it's a California model, he may not have gotten the correct dome for the replacement. Notice he doesn't show the rear of the dome to verify if it's accurate for a CTS. Matter of fact, look closely at the bar in the pic on the right. It doesn't look like a CTS, but more like a Code 3 SD.

Has anyone e-mailed this guy to "poke" him about his price and item?
 
Thank you, John or Mods. for moving the post to this thread. I was in shock when I saw this.


I showed my wife this and said "see my lightbars are worth something" :yes: :yes: :yes:

You're right, Mike.

It does look like an SD bar. At least it looks like the SD endcap :undecided:

Yep, the endcap is what tipped me off, and upon closer inspection, I noticed the speaker grille has Code 3 style louvers. Plus, I didn't see a par 46 bulb inboard on the driver's side, and what appears to possibly be multiple open face halogen rotators.

You know you are tempted to email him and tell him what he really has and that it's worth $75..

$250 sounds fair only if it was a new in original box, Federal sale tag included, PA-20 (early-to-mid 60s low-toned) Interceptor with WAIL, YELP, and ALERT tones, complete with mounting bracket, wire harness, instruction manual, and matching mic.


But a late 70's-to-early 80s Series B PA-20A Interceptor?


:no: .


Maybe $100 for the shape this one is in, but even then, does it have the matching PA mic to go with it?

I was seriously considering it, but I don't want to tick him off and blow a sale for any members that may be interested in it.... :)


BTW, I now have a box for the AdvantEdge and should have it packed and ready to go tomorrow, if you are ready on your end. Let me know, thanks.
 
Edge bars do not go for as much as they use to. I have a nice 6 strobe bar with the duplex halogen arrow stick and a shit load of flashers, couldn't get $150 for it on *bay. Mind you it came with used lenses.
