I found some donor horns and harvested parts including a new coil as I had a bad one. Riveted the units back together and painted. Played with the tone adjust some and there as good as new.
Rick,
I am in the process of restoring my horns for my 69 ss396 300 deluxe post car and I have a question does a gasket go in between both sides of the diagram? When I tore mine apart there was only a gasket on one side however the kit I bought has 3 gaskets in it! Thanks
