Re: 1910 Model T touring car FS on Facebook Marketplace

Anyone buying this beauty is going to know everything he needs to about a 1910 Ford Touring car. Unfortunately, such a purchase will also come with "scorn" from Pat, and those like him, which makes it harder for these buyers to feel welcome among our ranks.

WTB - “Right Side”-mount Rube Horn

I am looking for a “right side” mount Rube horn that is the mirror image of this one. Hopefully, in good shape. Would anyone have one for sale?
If needed, I have a good left side one to trade.
