Re: horns?



For 1964 horns :

Yes, for all models from A body to D body, the selection is :
Lo Note - 2421 486
Hi Note - 2421 487

Even the horn mounting bracket is the same for all - 2258 517

The above horns were used from 1962 through 1965.  Have not dug out the last year they were listed.    The mounting bracket was used 1962 to 1964 and replaced with 2580 965 for 1965.


And yes, Prestolite was a supplier to Chrysler.   The firm was originally Autolite but Ford Motor acquired the rights to the Autolite name and spark plugs in 1961.   Even purchased one of Autolite's spark plug plants.   Autolite regrouped what was left of their company and adopted the name of one their subsidiaries - Prestolite.  

GM used to own the Klaxon firm, the company that brought the world, A-OOOGAH.   By the 1960's only Prestolite and Sparton were listed as suppliers of auto/truck horns.  So it's possible Prestolite built horns for GM.

For my 65 I had one bad horn I needed another and I was at a mopar show in indy and I found the horn that matched the one I had it was a prestolite and the guy told me it came off a chevy it wasnt for a mopar. The horns looked untouched or original to me. Did the same maker do them for all cars? What are the correct horns for the 62 to 65 b bodys?

Ha. Thanks Don. It reminds me of the baseball cap with two shade bills, one on one side and one on the opposite side,
with the text on the hat above the forehead reading "I'm their leader. Which way did they go?" LOL

It's a great group of Mopar fans, really.
