Truly impressive to see such a nice siren restored. Does it work too?

Fully functional, except it isn't set up to rotate.

That's a nicely restored chrysler air raid siren. So it had some sort of industrial engine to power it.

The first ones had a big straight six, and the 1952 & later had the Hemi V8.

The original Chrysler/Bell Victory Siren had the straight-six engine.

I would love to put a Rolls-Royce Merlin V12 in one.
