HORN 6 VOLTS SPARTON
This horn is a finely crafted reproduction of the original Sparton Horn which has not been available for many years. We took an original horn, carefully measured every aspect and produced computer drawings for manufacturing. As a result, every single component both internally and externally is an exact replica of the Sparton original. The horn looks just like the original and, importantly, because the working parts are also manufactured to the same stringent specifications as the exterior, the horn has the same sound as the original. No longer do restorers have to pay exorbitant prices for originals.
