  • I'm replacing the stock horn on my 1929Graham Paige model 612 with a vintage "Klaxon". This horn will give the distinctive "aooga" sound that I love. It's old, crusty, and not working. Can I fix it in one day?

    The sound brings back fun memories. My grandfather had one on one of his cars. Great restoration job!

    What a great sound this one has, I love it. This type of horn is considered a "mechanical horn", the type that beeps is considered a "magnetic" type. Great job, and great video, thank you for uploading this.

    Made by Delco-Remy. a GM division manufacturing most of the electrical components for General motors cars from 1918 into the 1990's. this item most probably came originally with a 1920's Chevy Oldsmobile or Buick.

    I just bought the cousin of this one. Not as dirty but needs clean up. Can't wait to light it off.

    Have such horn myself, with a bigger brush motor. Two spoles!
    Do you know what this horns needs, regarding 6v? The motor did spin up with 18v, with a very high pitch tune, far away from the sound you want.. My horn is going to a 24v system, delivering 28v..

      I kept the car at 6 volts. It seems to be just fine. Thanks for watching!

    There's no comparison between the original and the new cheap copies. The new ones sound pretty crappy.

    • @snickerdoooodle
      @snickerdoooodle 2 года назад

      I kinda wonder how the new cheap ones would sound if you undervolt them to 6 volts
