Here is the Allertor after I got home with it. The black and gray pieces are actually new housing components for the Werden P-127.
After I cleaned the grunge off and put it on display in the front yard. It was still fugly with all the holes, cracks, chips, and peeling gelcoat. Apparently it was so ugly that it killed the tree next to it
Fast forward to this year and I finally drug it out of that corner of my shop and started the restoration process.
The noisy part
Armature out of siren for a much needed bearing replacement
Typical wild looking ACA rotor
What was hiding inside the rotor
motor tag, same exact motor that's on the P-15 in Milan.
The motor is in great shape, just all the grease from the front bearing had slung out into the barrel. The little pile of black stuff is crap that I cleaned out.
Moving on, here is the old crusty turn table before it was cleaned up and primed
Stator after being wire wheeled, deburred, sharpened, and primed. The large bearing in the picture is the front bearing for the motor.
The housing after being sanded down and prepped for primer. The big dark spot is fiberglass resin jelly that I used to patch a big crack in the housing.
Housing parts after extensive fiberglass repair and priming. There are lots of other sirens in this picture also
The great void...
Primer is grey, but my camera made it look blue. Notice the offset in the "tube" that comes out of the housing.
Eden Prairie red? (filler primer)
So today I drug all of the parts out in the yard and painted all the stuff that needed to be painted. I used Rustoleum Professional Safety Yellow thinned down to a water consistency with acetone and shot through a harbor freight HVLP gun. This is the same paint gun that painted the 2t22 and the P-15.
All of the parts are going to get one more coat of paint then I will start putting everything together. Stayed tuned for updates!
