Vehicle siren restoration

Thu Oct 25, 2012 10:09 pm

Thought I would share my recent restoration of a 50+ year old B&M CS8B M7 coaster siren. If interested pictures taken during restoration are here: Restoration pics . A short video here: VIDEO This one predates the model M9 in my avatar by about 20 years.
