We should all offer him $10 and ask him to throw in shipping.
Exactly! These beacons are not worth $500+, but that is what a few people with very deep pockets seem to be willing to spend on them. These insane prices are nice if you are selling, but for the average collector it puts them well out of reach.Joke or not, people on ebay actually watch these things and when they see high prices like this, they will think that theirs is a golden globe too and list them at high prices. If some are willing to buy just ONE for astronomic prices, I can't imagine if I listed my red/blue pair on eBay (btw, I ain't selling ).
LOL!Found this for sale on craigslist:
WHAT A FOOL! There's $20,000 worth of Dietz lights on the roof and he's only asking $6800 for the whole truck.
That's a cool looking apparatus right there! I'd get it but I can't afford the rider on my insurance to cover the Dietz lights...Found this for sale on craigslist:

The front of that makes it look like it should be a school bus for firefighters.
Actually I was going to ask if someone knew if that was a Wayne Body Works unit. They primarily built bus bodies, this was an early 60s body style so it's strange to see it on a later model fire engine. Wayne squared off the cowl area in the late 60s I want to say and remained that way til they went out of business in the mid 90s.
