Yesterday,I bought a Ford F250 and a K5LA train horn and came up with the idea of putting the train horn on the truck.Also seeing train horn on fire trucks inspired me to put a lightbar on the truck also and make him a volunteer firefighter with a train horn.Here are the photos from before painting to painted to lightbar intalled.

Camera tip. When taking up close pics of your subject, switch the camera to macro mode. It's usually a picture of a flower or bug on your settings dial. It allows for up close focusing. Otherwise, all your pics are focused beyond the truck, like on your fingertips.
