Are you looking for any specific dates Bob or will any do as long as they are clean and working.
Terry,
Prestolite's clean and working would be fine.
Thanks Bob
Bob- if you get a set of non-working, they can usually get going pretty easily. Else, I know a guy in Wisconsin who does a very nice rebuild of them. I may have have some non-working singles- will need to dig into the garage.
Also looking for a correct set of horns for June '70 'Cuda - thanks
I wonder how Gary attaches the two halves. Most DIYers just use machine screws with nuts.
Question. Are both horns supposed to sound identical or is one high and the other a lower tone? Mine are the latter.
One high and one low. High gets installed on top.

They are rivets that look very close to my originals. I just now did a closer look, and there is a bit of a dimple on the firewall side compared to my original, but that might have been from more paint over the years.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230223/a6a853ce516b79d441de77adb3224405.jpg)

Those look pretty good. Can't really tell.

I've been digging for horns along with everything else.
I do have a question, maybe it's a dodge vs plymouth thing and i have no dodges.
All my horns are the same size., both high and low note.
The pictured one is larger on top. Is that standard in 70?
They are the same size...in the picture, it's just closer to the camera :alan2cents:

My 70 Challenger "upper" horn says HI on it. I can't see the lower horn without taking it off. which I can can if needed.
The reason why i asked. One oddball large one
That large one definitely does not look like a 70 e-body horn. Unless someone at the factory got into the wrong box or ran short on the 'correct' ones.
Someone on here might be able to identify it. Friday challenge folks!!

I have seen the large one.
They came on some Mopars I believe prior to 66.
My old 64 Sport Fury used that style
