Re: [Chrysler300] Hemi

["Mike Wenrich" <mjwenrich@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I agree re: the preservation thought.  It sits inside an enclosed chain
link fence and has a current taller structure nearby that receives regular
maintenance.  I will contact the city to determine if the siren was left
there on purpose or just overlooked.  At least for now it is protected, but
exposed to the elements.
