*Ah-ooo-Gah Horn*

Guys,

I think my wife and I are done with the Ah-ooo-Gah Horn. We had it in our 37 and now in out 49 pickup. Looking for a nice low tone horn for our 49 pickup. We kinda like the looks of the horns in the pics. I assume they come from the 30's or 40's. Show us what do you have in your pickup?

Got my new old horn in today. I'll have to make a bracket for it but is sounds great on 12 volts.

Um, that's not an ahoogah horn you showed....

If there are junkyards near you try older auto horns, the GM's with trumpets sound really nice, you'll need two, one that toots low, one that toots high ~ individually each one should sounds off key but when tooted simultaneously they'll sound great .

No it's not. We are done with that type horn. The horn I installed is a NOS for a 1953 Chevy pickup.
