1930 chrysler horn placement

[Guest budd01]

my good friend has a 1930 chrysler sedan, the horn is missing, what did they have for a horn and how was it mounted, we have a delco horn and i'm going to clamp it onto the steering column, i'm pretty sure thats not how it was done but it will get us by for now, thanks for any help.

Most 1930 Chryslers used the motor driven "REMMY K-18-B" horn, mounted on the head (left side toward the rear).

There sould be some photos under the restoration section.

so heres a pic of under the hood, there is no side cover on this side of the engine, the wire looms looks like it might get in the way of using the head bolts, maybe?

My 1931 DH6 engine is nearly identical to your engine and my horn mounts on the left head studs behind the wire loom. It sits high enough to clear the spark plug wire loom. Here is mine (the primer red jobby) and another closeup example of the clearance...
