GPA horn

Post by leo verhagen » Wed Jan 18, 2006 7:34 am

Hello Mithril,

As requested a photo of the GPA horn. It is basically the same Sparton horn as on the GPW jeep, only 12 Volts.

Also on the photo the original labeled GPA hand brake cable.

Thank you Leo, I found mine under the front deck but no more white markings on it. I hope it is still her original 12 volts.

Please take some close pictures if you open it one day ...

Leo, can you take a close up of the inner and also of the 12 volts markings (Yes, I know, I'm a bad guy ...). This horn seems exactly the same than mine. I just want to check it as closely as possible.
