I'd just though I'd share this with everyone since I've never seen one for sale. A Chrysler air raid siren for $1500 OBO!!!! I hope someone from this forum can pick this thing up so I can see the restoration!!!

Everything seems to be there... Can't see the chopper/inside horn condition though. Bit pricey for what condition it's in. I'm sure some people will go all out for this thing though...

Wow! Didn't know there was a Chrysler closer to me than the ones in Seattle, could this one be from the original Seattle system?

That might've been me but I'm not from CT.

...now I wish I had a couple grand burning a hole in my pocket. (Well, a couple grand, plus the cost of renting a U-Haul to bring it back to Michigan, plus the cost of restoration, plus finding a way to persuade my folks to let me store it in their barn...)

Interesting that it is near seattle... In fact that is rather badass. If I had a grand I would take it. After all my Gma has a masters in museum studies and we have many friends who do stuff like that :D

I wonder if this siren is listed on the Chrysler Bell website as an existing one. I'm positive it's an Ex-Los Angeles siren because of the OD Green paint
