Oakland Victory Siren
Jack Schroll and Mostly Mustangs are working to preserve Oakland history. They are restoring a Chrysler Air Raid Siren used for Civil Defense during the Cold War.
This Air Raid Siren were manufactured by Chrysler from 1952 to 1957 powered by a Chrysler FirePower Hemi V-8, which was a 331 CID engine that produced 180 horsepower. It could be remotely turned on off directly by using a telephone! At an audible range of four to five miles. In fact, it has an audio output of 138 decibels and produced 30,000 watts of power.
This is the loudest air raid siren ever produced.
We are accepting donations to help with the restoration.
