My Fully Restored Model 5 siren
Fully restored!!! New bolts, cleaned motor, new wires, and brand new 3 layers of rust resistant paint!! I did all the paint, and my dad made the platform.

Looks brand new! Great job. How did you take off the old paint?

Re: My Fully Restored Model 5 siren
Awesome job! Love that nice glossy red!
In my opinion, I think there way too many 2001's in Indiana!

That's what I am using on my 2T22. It takes forever but the outcome is totally worth it. As I've said before, that restore looks awesome!NKTBOLT wrote:Just alot of paint stripper and a wire brush.QuantumCurse wrote:Looks brand new! Great job. How did you take off the old paint?
