Like this one on the fender? I still have it, and i remember that on 12 volts it sounded like it was gonna achieve 30,000 rpms so I just ran it on short bursts. The little guy to the right of the spare tire is 24 now and works for me in the woodshop, the redhead girl on the running board is my co-pilot in the parade as my wife has to work on Saturdays..... I think there was a song or an album entitled 'the kids are allright' and that's how it is here. In the 80s I asked a friend's 8 year old kid to come along with us in the parade and be my 'siren man'. He is now brass in our full time fire department. OK, I'll dig out the siren.
