36 D2 Coupe Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 This one is for a 1934 De Soto Airflow SE. I had a '34 De Soto Airflow but the horn button didn't have an emblem in the centre. Maybe this was done for an export model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe this was done for an export model.Morning FolksJim thank you for that, I was going along that line myself but could not find any reference to the horn itself having the emblem so decided I was looking in the wrong direction. thanks once again for that by chance Jim do you hail form Alberta ? and had a article written about you.Thanks againGordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordom1m Posted November 3, 2014 Author Share Posted November 3, 2014 Yes, it is the same type of headlamp band.Hi allThanks for that I assume you mean the emblem that was on the horn button would fit the band andnot that this image is the same as the band shown previously as it is the same band Thanks Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordom1m Posted November 4, 2014 Author Share Posted November 4, 2014 (edited) Hi FolksEnclosed closeup image of the horn button badgeNotably the horn button has a longer threaded shaft, this would be too much for the headlamp band i would think?ThanksGordon Edited November 4, 2014 by Gordom1m Not allowed to upload images again ???

Gordom1m Posted November 4, 2014 Author Share Posted November 4, 2014 Hi againAfter many fruitless attempts of trying to upload system finally let me do it the next day 8-( ?Finally got the image uploaded here is the back of the badge you cant see it but the threaded rod extendsa little under 1cm, way too much I would think for headlamp band to accept without being in contact with the lens I may be wrong as I don't have access to one to check it out.Thanks Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 One thing about those headlamp bands is the fact that they are curved outward quite a bit. I don't think that a little under 1cm would be too long. But, again, I would have to see the underside of one of those headlamp bands to be able to tell. It looks right with the alignment pin.
