SMFire History Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 We are looking for an original Rostand Bell for our 52 Mack. Also need the mounting bracket that I believe would be the three arm type?Here's a pic of OFD's 52 Mack bell.Any leads are appreciated.Thanks,Dom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fxfymn Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 You can also check with Paul Romano who is on this site occasionally.The brackets can vary, so make sure you have a template of the hole pattern to compare the bracket you are buying to what you currently have.You will find them on eBay every once in awhile as well as at FD flea markets. Expect to pay anywhere from around $700.00 to $1000.00 depending on condition. And just like everything you get it will be cheaper to get one in top condition than it will be to have it restored. If you locate a bracket I have an original bell that I might part with. It has a B model bracket, so I kind of hate to split it up.

SMFire History Posted January 19, 2016 Author Share Posted January 19, 2016 Thanks for the info guys. The bracket on the one in Houston doesn't look to be what I prefer. Our rig did not have a bell when it was delivered but since we are shooting for a very nicely restored rig to use in the community I'd like to add one.Anyone have Paul's contact info?I'll also reach out to Cal.fxfymn- I'd hate to see you split it up as well. I'll do my best to source one as a set. I'll keep everyone posted.Dom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rostand firebell Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Do you still need the bell. I have the one that you showed in the photo with the same 3 point mount. It is a Rostand chrome brass bell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yarnall Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 The original poster had not been in since 2016. How much are you asking for the bell and bracket? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
