1955 Fairlane Town Sedan- bone stock one-owner
Cannot get the horns to blow. Take the horn ring off and the small bullet shaped piece (looks like graphite?), will not engage with the back or the horn ring...well, it will once I pull it out, then it scoots back down in its 'rabbit hole' and won't work until I pull it out again. Can only get a wimpy, half-hearted blow, even when I do pull it out...I guess 'cause it is headed back down the hole as it tries to blow.

Hoping someone has fought this deal before and has a solution that I can do?

TIA
