Hi Spridgeteers,<br>
I just received my new Lucas horns from eBay (Thanks Jim) and now I need to=
<br>
know where they were supposed be located originally as my PO bolted the<br>
broken single horn to a jagged hole that I need to weld up. I believe the<b=
r>
62 only had 1 horn but I wanted the hi-lo setup and I want to try and place=
<br>
it near the original location. No concourse rest here but I do want to try<=
br>
and get my little Spridget wiring and locations close to where Donald and<b=
r>
Geoffrey wanted them LOL.<br>
