Default Gabriel horn

It is a long shot but maybe someone has a Gabriel Horn hanging in the rafters. I need one for a larger car than a T. The horn is about 3" diameter & a little over 3' long. I do have one of their smaller, Aermore type horns on a T.

It is interesting that the Gabriel shock absorber co. started with these horns way back.

It is worth reading the history of the Gabriel Co. - it can be found through Google. The founder of the co. sold it for 1/3 of the figure he was offered so it would be sure to survive & his men would have job security & then he gave the $3,000,000 sale price to several worthy charities that he already was helping. (Maybe some of the 1% we keep hearing about today could think about this.)
