Up for auction is a working vintage police, ambulance or fire truck type siren.

I believe this one was actually mounted on a police car in the 1960’s.

The siren is approximately 8-1/2 inches long and stands about 7-1/2 inches tall. You can see form the pictures that it is made by Federal Sign and Signal Corporation in Blue Island Illinois and is a Model EG

I placed the black wire on the positive side of a car battery and placed the base on the negative side and the siren spun up very, very loud. No unusual noises or vibrations, it seems to work perfectly. I assumed with only one wire that the unit itself was the ground and it worked that way. T seems to be a small bolt on the bottom that you could run a ground wire to if you could not mount it directly to clean metal.

The unit has a few dents but nothing that hurts the operation.
I could see some brass on the front cover w the paint had come off so I hit it with a little brass polish and it shined up brightly. You can see this in one of the pictures.

This unit would clean up to parade quality with a little elbow grease.

** Please add $10.00 (to the stated shipping cost of $10.00) for shipping to Canada, Hawaii, Mexico and Alaska.

Good Luck and thanks for looking!
