The alarm is not a shock device. It was sold under a bunch of names. Mine was a "Devil Dog". It has a motion sensitive pendulum gizmo inside. The two terminals are spliced into the horn wire. Move or shake the car and the horn will blow 8-10 times, thereby thwarting the thief.

My step mother's dad used to work at the factory.

I remember seeing a Wills St Clair at a Connecticut car show back in the 70's. A beautiful roadster not soon forgotten. Once you see that emblem on a car, you never forget! That car also had the goose radiator cap.

Here is a link to a bunch of images. wills st. clair - Google Search Dandy Dave!
