Found someone (http://ontario.kijiji.ca/c-buy-and-sell-art-collectibles-Old-1960s-Heavy-Steel-Highway-Street-Light-Brackets-for-Sale-W0QQAdIdZ514711806) on Kiijii selling some of the old MTO 6' truss arms. If only I had the space for a pole in my yard.
Truss arm + MV B2255 = 70s MTO lighting :MV: 8)
-
I like your thinking! :MV: looks like a nice arm
-
70 pounds each. :o WOW!
-
Yeah I guess they were extra beefy since they were used to hold 700w and 1kW B2213s originally.

Looks like they've been re-posted. (http://ontario.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-auto-parts-tires-auto-body-parts-Old-1960s-Heavy-Steel-Highway-Street-Lights-For-Sale-W0QQAdIdZ516130177) I'm actually pretty tempted... I also found these (http://ontario.kijiji.ca/c-buy-and-sell-home-renovation-materials-electrical-Two-old-street-lights-W0QQAdIdZ514469631) and these. (http://ontario.kijiji.ca/c-buy-and-sell-electronics-street-lights-W0QQAdIdZ471260333) I wonder how much they want for all 50 cobras. ;)
-
Looks like the seller lowered the price for the truss arms, tempting but I don't have a place to put it.
I didn't know someone was selling cobras though, there was also someone in Oshawa or Whitby selling a bunch of M-250A2s too.
Also if someone here wants one of those coach lantern style posttops or the arm mounted one, there's one of each (NOS 70w HPS) at the Brampton Restore. O_o
-
Did you notice how much it was selling for? My grandmother's place is very close to the Brampton ReStore.
-
I think something like 175 or so for the arm mounted one but they also have some other HID lights (wallpack, floodlight, yardlight, and some parking garage light) for 25.
-
Maybe I'll take a trip there tommrow then. I've got $120 in my wallet and I'm not withdrawing anything to get a light. ;D

Found someone in the Owen Sound area with a 100w HPS R47 and arm (http://ontario.kijiji.ca/c-buy-and-sell-home-outdoor-outdoor-lighting-Street-light-W0QQAdIdZ517769927) for sale.
Also found someone with some NEMA heads and misc vintage HID bulbs (http://ontario.kijiji.ca/c-buy-and-sell-home-renovation-materials-electrical-2-Outside-lights-plus-13-mercury-sodium-light-bulbs-W0QQAdIdZ517376089) for sale. It's pretty far away though.
