It became pretty clear the other day when attempting to remind a much larger SUV on the Interstate that I was beside/behind him, that the horn on my '78B is woefully inadequate. It might be nice and

Enlighten me, does the later rubber-bumper car have the twin horns that my 66 has? If not, I find mine *plenty* loud and definately get people's attention. IMHO I think swapping parts between new/old

Huh, maybe it is resistance... I have both of the horns on my 66 working, but I can barely hear 'em over engine/road noise. I should try cleaning up the contacts. On a 66 the horns are on their own c

Nah, I got a cute little horn that's fine for alerting a pedestrian in town, but totally inaudible on the highway. On the other hand, I don't want to shake the car apart. I don't need a truck horn. N

The stock horns on my 69 B would wake the dead, have a sweet sound, too. Low voltage to the horns (2 of 'em) may be causing the anemic sound output; mine would barely tootle when I got the car. Make
