Hello My Fellow Friends!!

I don't even know how to effectively express my feelings on this one, other than just saying I was overcome with excitement as soon as I received this one!!!!!! I mean where else you gonna find this one???!!! I got a phone call out of the blue from my contact in the LAPD and he knew I wouldn't be able to pass this one up LOL. He was like, "I have an unusual one for you here"

This is a Federal Signal 72" Aerohawk LAPD SPEC. This light bar came off a "Mobile Community Sub-Station" Van. I believe it was used in the Hollywood Division, based on the info I received. I gave it my usual treatment, disassembled it into pieces! I replated all the screws, plates and brackets I could. I Powder coated the frame and mounting plates. To finish things out I ordered new domes, mounting feet and wiring harness.

I absolutely love the outcome of my restoration on this one and put this find in my top ten greatest finds category. I was able to find a couple original photographs online from the van, though these are not to be believed the actual van my light bar came from.

Let me know what you think!

Again, you really surpassed yourself :) She is absolutely beautiful. I'm half amazed by the restoration, half amazed on how in the hell do you always come up with impossible finds over and over.

That's a beau-t fo' sho'. Never cease to amaze. You might need a small thermonuclear power supply to run that monster Full Tilt Boogie though, :).
