The horn is 12 volts and chrome.I am changing the system back to 6 volts as all the orginial parts were in a box on a shelf in the barn. BLUE? it was all Black and second owner added the BLUE somewhere in the early 60's. I was told by his kids. There father bought the car in 1962[being the second owner].Service sticker inside door jam [Washington D.C.] a Gulf gas station.

Pete is that when the speedometer quit working?? LOL....NICE CAR....but i would question that millage pete. Did it have orig plugs in it? good find though

No orginial plugs, but some tools under the seat not used. In 1986 he died and someone the wife new[ a boyfriend] went from 6 V to 12 V so they can go out at nite for a drive around the back farm land. Wires look like spaghetti at wire harness

. Its a solid car with less then a dime size rust out in right rear fender well corner.Speedometer does move. [in reverse[l.o.l.] kidding. Now the V12 1931 Fleetwood Roadster Caddy [restored with 6 miles on it [now that a car ,one of the finest restoration i have ever seen.] 1932 Packard 7 passenger phaeton runs super nice,solid ,complete and just a paint job over the orginal paint. This guy collected them in the 50's. So i got the "A" thats all i can afford.

That's orginial black paint on gas tank,sun viser too.
