So, I spoke to the guy I got them from and turns out they are both former NYPD bars which is odd because I thought it had to have a rmvf-z config which only one does. Apparently, his father pulled them off NYPD tow trucks in the 70's. Makes it much more special imo, knowing the history of them.

You might actually have the two lightbars off of one vehicle. The NY Port Authority used all red AeroDynics on their Mack MF Tunnel wreckers. Here's a pic of one with dual AeroDynics.

The ones in the picture look like EH bars (6 rotators and end lamp flashers), but I'm suspecting that with yours you acquired, they took one AeroTwin and had it mounted with the cascade mirrors forward on the cab top, then on the headache rack, they mounted it so the cascades were to the rear for maximum rear warning power.

So one The RMVF-5z is all red and flashers, all four at same time, flash together. The regular RMVF was all red except Alittle blue in driver side, inner 1.5 panel nearest to grill. Front only very odd. Haven’t been able to test flasher yet, I hear it clicking but someone rewired it to be steady burn with different wiring for each f/r pair.
