I like those early Spectra mini light bars with the Aurora Borealis style bases. :D

I'll give you $50 for it, LOL :lol:


That is sweet looking, did not know that they made one like that. Was this a Craigslist find or local FD retiring a truck?

These short bars was never called Spectra. They where before the Spectrasystem.


The Spectrasystem has the streamlined base.


The model was called Model 600 and when delivered in this way they where called Combo.

That was some wheeling and dealing done with a local fire collector who got it off a 1978 chevy impala wagon.

I hope that it had a monster motor, which in 78 was unlikely, or else it would have made an already slow car a whole lot slower. I love those things, but from an aerodynamic standpoint, you might as well chain and drag a bunch of anvils behind the car.

I stand corrected. I like the 600 series mini bars better than the Spectras.

I'd say that is in running for "find of the year"? Definitely should be photo'd one more time (little blurry) and post it in the vintage showcase thread!
