Are you still 6 volts? Not a big deal but the horns sound different on 12 volts, and it is not pleasant.
The horn ring is in pretty good condition with no cracks, but I suspect that it isn't original. Most of the interior was gutted and redone in '85. The electrical system is still the original 6v and I'm tempted to update it to 12v, but mostly it has only been a small inconvenience. But I do keep a spare battery in the trunk...
