Default 1934 Horn Rebuild

I have a 1934 Deluxe 5 window coupe. I need to get both horns rebuilt to "show quality" and converted to 12V. I do not want to try this myself.

Who provides this service?????

Thanks.

They will work just fine on 12v. You can buy a 12v to 6v reducer resister with heat sink for around $20. What is to rebuild? If they don't make a sound adjust them. If they toot no need to "rebuild." Both mine on my 41 didn't toot until I adjusted them. I feed them 12v.

I think "show quality" here means 'looks', not only 'sounds'. 8^)

Jack,
Thanks for the lead. Unfortunately it pertains to Model A horn rebuilds. Model A horns are completely different than mine. It's not a matter of operating 6V horns on 12V. My horns need new parts and rebuilding by an expert.
I need to find someone to rebuild horns for my 1934 coupe.
Thanks,
Daryl
