Fogs & horn: Where did you get that horn from? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) What type of mods did you need to do to mount it?? @pete-stevers I made a small bracket that went into the original horn mount. I purchased that particular horn from a fellow in Sweden. The GT cars ran them. I wanted a piece of the action (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) it’s loud. https://pbase.com/9146gt/factory_oem_9146gt..._fanfaren_horns |

Fogs & horn: Hahahahaha (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) I missed these the first time. I've got the compact version, where the trumpet is circular. And mine are LOUD. Hahahaha, I can't imagine how loud yours will be. And the fact that you got those to fit. They'll know you are there. Beautiful car dude. |

Took my first “official” run in the six. Picked it up from my mechanics shop yesterday evening. He went and tuned the carbs, set timing, cured a uncooperative valve cover leak. Warped cover. Plus a 4 wheel alignment.
Wow can’t be more pleased. Love the low end torque. Brakes are awesome (Thanks @Eric_Shea ) Looking forward to taking her on the long run out to the Carlisle Swap meet. https://youtu.be/nFRTbrAZldg Ben @mb911 muffler does the job! Cheers |
