Those are the "newer" generation of Mars lights, can't tell from the photo if they are Aurora Borealis or just the Skybolt rotator version. A strange, and ultimately futile attempt to modernize their product line and sales. Hope that helps some.

Those lights are super skybolts. They had 2 sets of rotators in each light . They also could be customized with a center stationary flashing light or 888 light . We have the exact same bar on display at my install shop.

Can anyone help with some apparatus questions. Looking for info for Lebanon County PA, old Ford C apparatus.

Lawn Fire Co. Engine 3, Bellegrove Fire co., Tanker 6 Ford C / ? 300/1800, Quentin Fire Co., 1967 Haun ?/?, They had an older one also that I have no info on.

Fredricksburg Fire Co., , and Greenpoint Fire Co. 19xx ALF ?/750.

Any help would be appreciated. By what I can find, I have all info on other Ford C chassis in the county, just missing some of this data.

Mars also had these lights offered in a Full~size bar. Just mounted on a base with an aluminum Speaker section. Was called "The Spectra System"
