I do not see any part # for this horn either advertised or stamped. It is probably one of the hard to find horns of that era but if I were spending that much money I would want to know what I was buying.:
The 1961 to 1963 Cadillacs used an Eldo horn with catalog # 199 9947, stamped 947 with a B Flat Tone.
The 1964 Cadillacs used an Eldo horn with catalog # 199 9896, stamped 896 with a Low C Tone.

The # is stamped on the outer lip of the horn like this 896 I picked up for my 1964 Coupe de Ville a few years back:

I was watching the eBay horn too. It looks like it's stamped 949. 

Can you post a link? I have typed in the title exactly direct on the eBay site and not finding this. The pictures are fine but cannot get to the listing. 

Anyone have an actual link to this listing? It would be nice to zoom in on the pics and see it close up. The listing is ended so the search tool is not working but should still be able to go to if someone has the link. 

I thought of that ... it would have been nice to just have a link. It would also be nice if eBay posted the listing ID #. Searching user, then scanning for old sales, is the way to get there.. may do that later today when I have more time.

OK...what's another 5 minutes. Searched user, searched completed, found, it is sold, it is a 949. Here is the link and a picture with stamping:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Cadillac-Eldorado-Buick-Riviera-Delco-Trum...

From previous discussion here on the site (Click Here), looks like this was a Buick sourced horn. These are all very high demand horns and has the look of the original 896 / 947 horns so someone will have a nice piece at a cost.

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed

Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments

While checking my Carter carb with engine running, I took the air cleaner off and there was a very loud hissing sound of air. I placed a piece of paper over the carb and it didn’t move up or down, is this normal?

Vintage Air AC

Posted by Chase on March 21, 2024 at 5:55am 0 Comments

Hey everyone, has anybody done a Vintage Air AC/Heat setup in their car? I want to bypass the old vacuum setup and go with a Vintage Air Gen 2 model. Before I get started, does anyone have any experience with this? (Which model to go with, do’s and dont’s, etc.) It looks pretty involved. Any and all info/pics would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I would prefer to be as original as possible. Thanks

'63 Eldorado trumpet horn + 2 standard horns restoration

Posted by Les Eastling on November 15, 2023 at 10:34am 1 Comment

My son, unbeknownst to me, had all three of the horns on our 1963 Eldorado completely restored. We had recently added the Eldorado trumpet horn to the two standard horns and the sound was not very good... we had heard good ones so we knew something was not right... but there was not much we could do to get better sound from the 3 horns. 

There is a restoration service called The Horn Works who my son…
