Re: Finally, a town with some common sense...

Newsflash people: Tornadoes have a tendency to knock down those cell phone towers. I've seen an EF-4 tornado rip through a town and the only siren-related damage was a broken rotator, and the tornado passed a couple blocks away from it. (The siren was a Whelen.)

Re: Post your Mystery Sirens here.

It looks to me like they took the horn off an Allertor, and put an oil barrel in its place. The back motor cover looks very similar to that of an Allertor 125.

Re: Chinese Chrysler

Point is, Lion King has got some serious issues obeying copyright laws. Whether those copyrights are still here or long gone.

Re: Chinese Chrysler

yes, the Chrysler we are talking about is the same Chrysler that makes cars. The Chrysler air raid siren was powered by a V8 Hemi engine, if I'm not mistaken.
