Several years ago I was restoring a 1932 Coupe and I needed a horn. I found out that A & L Parts Specialties was making these horns. Al Lepore, a friend of mine from the CT Model A Restorers Club, mentioned that he had one left from his production run. He commented that this beautiful horn was a "dead item." There just wasn't enough 1932 Fords being restored anymore. This horn is virtually identical to an original horn down to the data plate. Al has since passed away but everyday when I go out to the garage or blow that horn, I remember him. He was a tremendous asset to our hobby. Ed
