Yes. Had no idea how. Faked it. It took 36 minutes for it to download a 12 second video, hum movie. When it hits the big screen it will be as a musical I guess.

I had my 48 in a parade in a small local town this Summer. Noticed people were startled a bit when I laid on the twin trumpets. Maybe you could do a horror movie!

Kevin - Someone must have removed one at some point in time. They all came with high note and a low note horns.

Thanks , Dale...Great , now I guess I'll look for another set or figure out which "note" is missing...Wonder were they "stacked" ?...Or one per side ?...The loner is on the passenger side...

Kevin -

There was one horn on each side of the radiator. They are marked with an "H" or an "L" on the underside of the horn, usually somewhat near where the horn wire comes through, but it's somewhere in that ribbed area underneath. You would have to remove the horn and turn it upside down to see it.

Thanks , Guys...You know I spent all that time getting my "Horn" to work at the Steering Wheel...And I was happy with how loud it was...Guess I've only heard the half of it ! lol

Stainless that's magnetic includes the 400 series...used in Surgical instruments and Food Industry Machinery , etc. Can be Heat Treated...Used to use it quiet a bit when I worked for a Precision Grinding Machine Shop...

Geez , Russell...How long have you been working on your '48 ?...You must know every square inch by now...!

Found a horn for the '47 on Ebay...In a North Dakota salvage yard...Guess it must be cold there...He says "buy it" and he'll go out and see if it works...oh boy...

Remember, you need a "hi" and a "low". Don't know if it is/was standard but my driver side is "hi".
