Chrysler Air Raid Siren 1 Year, 11 Months ago  
Found this on another website so thought I'd put it on here to show others.



Introduced to confuse and deafen the enemy during war-time, the Chrysler Air Raid Siren became an instrument of civil defense. It evolved into an industrial 331 cubic-inch HEMI-powered monster that was louder than any steam whistle or horn ever produced.

The siren on exhibit was produced in 1956 at the Chrysler Trenton Engine Plant and purchased by the City of Trenton, MI, in 1958.

The Walter P. Chrysler Museum acquired the siren from the Trenton Fire Department in 2002 and Chrysler Historical Vehicle Collection staff spent four years restoring it to its original condition.
