Picked up a 6 volt horn at a sell and was wondering if some can tell if the Rhams-Horn by J. Thomas Rhamstine has any history with the Model A? Couple of photos attached. Would have been mount somewhere under the hood?
Thanks

Not from the factory.

I have one with Packard script on the nameplate but I could never find out what it belongs to

Where the horns known for any particular sound? It doesn't look like any of the ah-ooo-gah horns that I have seen.

Looks similar to a bull horn.

How do you determine if a bull horn is 6 or 12 volts? I have two I've had for years but don't know if to hook to 6 or 12.

Gold digger, hook up to 6v and see how it sounds. 12 v will only make it louder and possibly only for a short time!
