While I was in NY, I worked a little on the 100 project (it lives out there for the time being). One thing I did was to pull off the horns and bring them home with me so I could go through them, neither worked when hooked up to 12V.
I suspect they might be the original ones to the car, the date stamps are 3/54 and 4/54 and this car is a late April '54 model. Both are HF1748's, one high and one low, still painted the metallic beige that's supposed to be original.
Anyways, today I cracked them open. No stripped threads, a few of the bolts needed heat on one of them, the other took some torque and kroil and they moved. Pics are only of the first one, it's cleaner inside but not by much, they're both pretty decent looking.
Just thought I'd share a few photos for the fun of it. I'll post progress (if I make any) of bringing them back into working order.
