Wanted: Original spun alluminum horn
I am in search of a few spun aluminum horns. They must be nickel plated and in very good condition. Either regular horns or ones with the pin for a horn support, like the ones found on a puck, will work. Thanks!

Spun aluminum horns were not nickel plated.

Re: Wanted: Original spun alluminum horn
hmmm... so would a horn like this from my collection not be nickel plated? Or can aluminum by itself be polished to be this shiny?

Most everything here is polished aluminum except the exhaust pipes...
