    It's cool to see you do some restoration on this lightbar to bring it back up to speed! I love rotating lights way more than modern l.e.d.'s and strobes. Rotating lights are just classic and have more "pop flash' effect.

    I just wanted to thank you for this video as I just received my new belts for the Code 3 XL lightbar on my 1985 GMC 7000 fire engine and I've never changed the belts on one before so this video is very helpful. Hopefully I can get the belts done and the battery's recharged today so I can get the old girl started and moved around a bit and maybe she'll make it to the July antique fire apparatus muster and parade near me. Thank you again.

      Oh also I forgot to mention that your Mack is a great looking rig. I really like it. Have a good day.

      We actually were able to buy the same lightbar in perfect condition at a fire flea market for very cheap! So we'll have our lightbar expert swap out the lenses.
