Hi all, I'm calling on the infinite wisdom of the list again, with two more questions. 1) I can't get the horn on my newly restored Bugeye to work. I've tested the Lucas horn I have by just hooking i

That makes total sense, seeing that I put a really nice thick coat of eastwood's chassie black on the rack assembly, and also used the 'orginal gaskets on the mounting clamps, In fact, I can't think

I went through this myself during my restoration, but I can't for the life of me remember how I got them off, or even if I had any difficulty. I know when I did the reassembly it was a piece of cake

I'm also wondering why they have two wires off the harness going to the horn, instead of just grounding the horn directly to the frame??? The wiring diagram doesn't go into very much detail here, bu
