The 1981 Federal Signal AeroDynic light bar finally arrived from Florida with the help of Ron Fenton... (20/06/2015)

This light bar was originally on a Fire Chiefs car in the State of Pennsylvania which is the reason for the two red lenses. I have since ordered a series correct new pair of red & blue lenses.

Taking it apart to give it all a proper clean and to check the wiring and that it all works correctly...

Test shows it all works as it should...not bad for 34 years old!!
