Need WAG on value of 33-34 Ford horn that looks half way decent, but no knowledge of whether it will work or not.

A scientific WAG would be even better. LOL

I would say, it should be about the same as a Henway

That's what I thought at first, but then decided a henway would probably be more.

As a seller it's worth less than you think it is.
As a buyer it's worth more than you think it is.

Lawson, there is a horn on Ebay listed as for a 34 ford but it has a slightly longer trumpet than the Sparton Ford. Probable its off a Studebaker or some other. What is a WAG ??? I know how much a Henway s. Regards, Kevin.

Believe it or not it is a term used in the defense industry in the US. We used the term a lot in engineering at Boeing. It basically mean an estimate that is not based on much solid data.

Many years ago, I drove a parts delivery truck for a junk yard. We had a pink Cady convertible with twin trumpits on each front fender, I was really interested in them. Then one day there was a big "X" on the windshield. It was going to the crusher. When I got back from my delivery's one set was gone already. I got the other set. Well they sat around for the past 20 years and last year when I was putting the 47 Int on the road, I needed ahorn. Well their hidden under the hood. You can't believe the stares I get when I cut then loose.
