tsquale said:Well...I can finally cross my list off. A Mars Aurora Borealis is heading my way!!! It is in average condition. The base was at one point painted, dome has a crack in the rear, and the motor may be shot, but it is a very low serial number and has the original stamped tag and it is a FREAKING AURORA BOREALIS!!!
:woot: :woohoo: :2thumbs: :celebrate: :dance: :fangirl:
It ships out Monday so stay tuned folks.

Blue glass dome Beacon Ray. I have red, clear, and amber domes in glass, just need the blue to complete my collection. Apparently others also share my obsession: recently a blue dome and skirt (no innards) went for over $300 on eBay.

What a lot of work went into these to produce a very limited amount of warning light.guy m. said:

Liberty703 said:Here's mine, figured I'd post a pic after teasing about the other style not looking like it. And no, I didn't paint a yield sign silver! Still as is the way I got it. That lolli-pop gotta go and will change the speaker to a 66 G.
Liberty703 said:It did come from CA, but I didn't get any history with it. The gentleman I got it from has two more in his collection (now back across country). Maybe I should research more, but I haven't seen another with this light configuration. I'm a damned Yankee, so some advice on it would be great!

empire5150 said:My holy grail has always been the CTS (as boring as that might be to some) but now its one that I have just learned of. Cant remember the model number but it was a type of visibar. California visibar possibly? It had the regular bar but 2 model 184's one rotated and the other had the front steady burn and rear flasher. Any help/info on this? Thanks..
Liberty703 said:Not for sale, but yeah "Holy Grail" Pics from a private collection.
Those pics were from 2 years ago, just as the gentleman was packing up to move back across country. I think it's an early 888. We had two trucks at the shop with them, he got one and I have the other.Skip Goulet said:Is that Mars light an old DL8 or an early 888? Haven't seen one of those in many years.

crescentstar69 said:What is the vintage item you are most looking for? The one item you dream of most? The item you would sell a kidney to own? (Are you starting to get the idea? :lol: )
My ultimate item is a 1967 era Sireno Projector 75 watt electronic siren. I had one in mint condition in 1985, but as a dumb kid, I traded it for something. Of course, I don't remember what I traded it for.
My second is also Sireno. A "wobble" beacon, where one light wiggles as the beacon rotates. If only Marcson would share that damn alarm code................

I've been looking for about 7 years for the housing.
My Second would be a Code 3 XL Bar with the rear amber cut out circuit, (circa 1980 LAFD). I forget the exact option name of that specif Code e XL option, (CRS kicking in...lol)
