This is a real 1964 (only year) Eldorado Trumpet Horn for sale. It is stamped with the part # 896 12V. It is in very nice condition with no dents. It has it original mounting brackets. The one on the end and the one clamp it the middle. It works like it should. You will not find another one for sale unless someone is parting a 1964 Eldorado that has one, which is not likely. They made repop right hand mirror but never repoped the Trumpet Horn. Price for that $50,000 car that is missing the horn! $450. + shipping. or on eBay starting at $300. Email at nogas2day@gmail.com
:chin: the wording on this e-mail sounds strangely familiar.

It should be. He finds the horn and resells it. Just like anyone else does. The last one never went above asking price. So he didn't make a killing, but it sold and he made a few $$$ for monitoring his ebay account and the forum B/S boards.
I thought he was still in search of a 61-62 Eldo horn for his son's car.
IIRC, his last post was about buying a horn and waiting to see what year it is. Evidently NOT a 61-62.
In the interim, covering costs and helping to support the Cadillac habit. :banana:
That's how we started selling parts; bought whole cars to get what we needed and sold the leftover pieces to recoup our investment.
hmmm. Why does it show me as making a second post quoting myself? :confused2: I didn't do that.
You must have. Two different times from the original and the duplicate and you were on at that time.
:confused2: I read the thread after Pyro's post, but that was it.
Oh wait, I know what happened. I had hit "modify" post and changed "e-mail" to "ad" I guess since Pyro had already posted, the software turned my modify into a repost with a quote for some reason.
Yes I am still looking for the 61-62 horn. And yes my last horn went for the asking price of $200 but I paid $55. for it. I keep buying them and check the parts numbers for the 61-62 one I need. I will buy parts and swap them with mine if mine are worse. Chrome is expensive and I just want a nice driver. My wife says it a game with me and I should stop it!
If it keeps you entertained and doesn't cost you anything, what's the problem. It reads like you're making money to me. Maybe not any great amounts, but making beats losing anyday?
O I buy more parts than I sell. Just ask the wife. She knows. I tell her all the time, the profits made on horns offsets the eBay buying.
Just tell her. Hey Sweetie, I could be at the tittie bar with the boys. Instead, like a good man, I'm home with my wife.

That's what I tell my wife. I quit going too the bars, and play with the cars.

Hey! Want to hear a funny story..... :yes:.........on our last turkey hunt at my friend's PJ's, a few day ago, my friend Weasel and LSU college roommate, told me a story about PJ (retired attorney now). It was when we were hanging out in bars in our teens. Seems PJ was with this chick and she lost a charm from her bracelet. It was found by PJ's mother when she went to wash his draws! :yikes: :Muttley: :Muttley: :Muttley:

Hmmmm. Did you all have pseudonyms for names? Did anyone ever get called by their real (given) names in the Bayou?
What was your nickname?
