Those Aeros turned out great, MSP1989SSP:2thumbs:! I especially like the other one on the '67 Jeep! Do the front/rear endlamps flash on both bars?

MSP1989SSP said:Thanks! No, the 3 end lamps on both bars are steady burn. The bars came with a pair of Federal Signal flashers, so those may have been hooked up to the front and rear end lights (the alley lights are behind a clear window on the ends).
toon80 said:The FA3 flashers I remember from your first post about these bars looks to be the older one without ground wire. If you want to hook up the flasher, it's very easy. The FA3 will have 3 terminals:
-X
-L1
-L2
X is the +12Volts, and L1/L2 are the 2 flashing outputs. Hook the "X" end of the flasher socket wire to the contact of the terminal strip you want to flash. Blue one, usually. Then, hook the L1/L2 wires to the two (2) blue/white wire leads. And there you go
The front lights were often steady burn, but could be made to flash as well. You can hook both front and rear light to one FA3 flasher, It will handle it. :thumbsup:
These bars are beautiful and we'd all like a video of them

We'll be waiting for that video!

toon80 said:In your case, it's more likely to be: "how many storage units do you have for your collection?"
dmathieu said:138 beacons.
125 after thinning out is complete.

Skip Goulet said:Wow! I can't believe I see a siren in the midst of all those lights, Dan. Nice looking little VL. I have a VL that I need a replacement lens for and haven't found one. Nice.
dmathieu said:That's an old picture Skip. The collection has changed since then.
Skip Goulet said:So, what happened to the VL? Do you still have it? I'd like to find another one.
dmathieu said:Sorry, sold it a while back.

Skip Goulet said:What a collection, Tony! Years ago I had a collection of mostly classic sirens: several doubletones, a single Q, a 6-volt B&M, a C4B and a C5GB. But one of my most valued pieces was an old Mars DL8 light that I had had for many years that had made its rounds on a number of our ambulances over the years. It was stolen, along with a decent PA15A Director, from my house, but was then recovered. Almost all of my collection was sitting in the back of my 1970 high top Suburban ambulance, because the truck had been down for several months because we just couldn't afford the repairs at the time. I ended up with an extended stay in the hospital about that time, and when I got out, the Suburban with all its equipment and my collection were gone. And they've not been seen since. For all the good it does, I still have the title to the truck!
tsquale said:Thank you for the compliment Skip. That is a tragic story about the Suburban and lights...hopefully someday that title will come in handy for you.
