1940's horn relay

[gary griffin]

Hi, I am looking for an authentic horn relay. The correct one has 3 holes on th eleft side and 3 wire terminals on the right side and the cover is about 3 inches high and about 1 inch across. There are no mounting holes on the right side.

Hi Gary: You want a Delco 1116775. There are several on Ebay at the present time, some used and some NOS. They are not cheap even if used.   Bill

If a new one is that expensive, why not get a good used one and clean it up and paint the cover.  Since the same 6v horn relay was used on all GM cars from the late 30s until the switch to 12v in the 50s, there must be a good supply at a reasonable price.  That's what I did when mine went bad some years ago.
