Any Barners that have experience with both? I'd sure be interested to hear from you. Thanks much! |
First of all when I get to be president it will be against the law to sell a Model A without a good sounding Ahooga horn! I did not say original horn because after some of the ham handed tinkerers get done with an originalhorn it is junk. I base my comments on not one or two cars or horns as I have owned literally doxens of both...yes I am an old fart! Do not buy an original horn unless you can here its sound......too many junk ones with a good paint job. Unless you are going for blue ribbon, go with A$L. As brnt pointed out, you will save money.
