Facebook marketplace is going to be the death of me, with all the stuff I have been bringing back the Mrs. is just delighted when I pull up.

Recent find... just shy of 4 hours round trip today. I have not done anything to this other then take some pictures, and do some exploring.

Tag reads 24 RMVF-2Z. Needs a good going over, I think I have a set of new domes for this still. Almost sold them and now I am glad I didn't. Will need to find some tube feet which I may already have, and the correct bulbs which again I should already have.

I found my NYPD Aero in 2011 in your area, with almost the same bulb configuration, but blue and amber instead of clear. Seller said it was used as a wrecker bar, although I don't recall blue being used for wreckers in NY state back in 2011.

Nice bar!

@toon80 I have located quite a few that when they were surplussed wrecker operators flipped the domes around. Amber to the front, and Red to the rear being used as STTs. Then replaced the bulbs in the rotators with Amber. At the time not a bad idea considering how cheap they were going for on the surplus market back then.
