Greetings,

I am new to the forum and am hoping that someone can help me identify the mystery lightbars that my fire department used on their apparatus up until the early-mid 200s when they were either replaced by new trucks, or had MX-7000s installed on them. I've attached a few pictures for reference!IMG_8318.png 219916219917

Pete is on the right trail. They actually are Whelen 80H (the rotator version) whereas the 8000 series was a strobe version. @Usmc69187 is a mega collector of this style of bar and may be able to further nail down the options on them

My eyes aren't what they used to be but first guess is Whelen 8000 bars ??
If so, those clear domes are worth a pretty penny.
the department replaced those LONG before I joined with the MX7000s. I have one MX 7000 off of our old rescue, a force 4 lp6 from a chief's POV and a junior beacon ray 15A off of our 1963 pumper. No sign of the others however

I have a few more pictures in my archives at the firehouse. I'm out at college but i'll be home in a couple weeks and upload them.
Ended up going home this weekend. Here are some other pictures. I have the spec sheet for the tower that states the lightbar was a Yankee-Dietz possibly, however it also had the siren as being a federal signal when in fact it was a ws-295r1182.PNGtower189.PNG
