1940 85 hp, custom deluxe As in many instances, I either read conflicting information in my collection of books and manuals and on internet sites, find no information, or incomplete information. Is my coupe supposed to have one horn or two? I currently have one trumpet shaped horn. Looked very original, sure didn't look like anything was missing. If I am supposed to have 2 horns, I will need some information describing the horns, wiring, to try to look for parts. Thanks. Sure glad this site exists. I can do a lot of stuff, but need to ask questions.

ALL 1940 Ford passenger cars had the identical set of dual horns.

Just to clarify the obvious - the horns are 'identical' in general shape and construction, not length, and play different notes/frequencies to produce a single tone.

Any ideas where I could look for a set, original or faithful reproduction?

They are not reproduced. Sets of horns appear frequently on eBay and such. I may have an extra set. If you'd be so interested - I'd look.

To Kube. Yes, I would be very interested if you have a set of horns. Jim Overson

Jim, I'll look later today. I am organized so it is simply a matter of "getting to it". I sold a set of restored hors on eBay just three weeks ago. I am fairly certain I have more.

Jim, I found a set. They are 100% restored and beautiful. I am unable to send you a private message as apparently your message reception is disabled. Mike "Kube" Kubarth
