WTB Tank Horn

[Chris]

Need an original tank horn for a 1959 Schwinn Panther II. Think this would be a Delta horn, 2 cell/battery type. Not sure if there were any other suppliers for 1959. This is a horn for the smaller tank seen on the Panther II/III.

Hey Chris

It will be the big button 1 D cell horn. Here is one on ebay

Never used one of these so double check the screw hole locations. I can almost always get the slimline horns to work but these not so much because of the switch so a new one might be a good idea.

Thanks Bob. I was looking for an original horn if possible. Will go the route of an reproduction if I have to, but for a hard-to-find '59 Panther II, I'd like to stay original.

I agree but finding one that works on a consistent basis is tough if that matters to you. I do agree the 59 Panthers are hard to beat.
