Just when I thought I saw it all!

Actually, it looks very well done. Someone had some talent to create this. Props! We have all seen worse, but this guy has some talent. Look at those mounting feet he made. Fairly complex!

My 1972 Crown had an All-Light Twinsonic on it before I purchased it.

I thought in an old thread these were discussed and it was determined that there was a certain dept. that had their shop make some, or something along those lines. I know All light Twins have been discussed in the past for sure but cant recall what thread (if it even exists still) it would be in.

If I was local.. I'd make an offer... probably make a good display piece.

Awesome work, but the first time you turn it on, the lights on the truck dim and you are kicking in a generator and reactor lol

 

[stansdds]

That's... uhhhhh... wow? Definitely not factory as Federal had stopped making the Twinsonic well before the all-light lightbar became a reality. I've always thought that a universal turn signal behind the mirrors in the model 12 was a pretty good idea and a simple modification, but not on a 12X. As for the center section, I'm guessing there is a pair of independently driven rotators and the straps keep the domes from flying off at highway speeds. It is certainly not worth $250 as a collector's piece.

If the center was chain driven also that would be cool. But independent and chain drive together , not huge on my list. would have been nice to see some stingers or even a set of par36 flashers

I think you were talking about the twins that had cutouts in the speaker section to add steady burn lights, but I do not think it was a federal option although I think we had that speaker section on a shelf at the station.

 

[7d9_z28]

No, I remember those too but I am talking about an all light center like this. Perhaps one of these was mentioned in that thread?

 

[ERIC6913]

I think these twins look cool and could be made no problem, but I personally like to stick to factory type set-ups or at least period correct set-ups. Chain/Chain would definitely be the way to go though.

 

[Windycity411]

If the price was cheaper, would be a nice grab. I would put 2 front and 2 rear par 36 sealed beams in there to keep it period correct. Perhaps if mixing FS and Code 3 would be tolerated add in a stinger facing front between aforementioned flashers.

Yes, there was a thread on that. Constable police equipment in Illinois made the twin with cutouts in the speaker housing.

Price went down a little, and it does say OBO.

 

[OSP959(R)]

I think it's pretty cool.

I think it's cool too..............
I would have loved to put a clear center with red/blue outers
on my patrol car (way back when).
