Custom Cabs came along with F-100s in '53. I have never seen a 51-52 with only one horn. In fact, I once used a pair of the 6-volt trumpet horns on a '61 Renault Dauphine (12v), painted up and mounted on outside of the hood! Maybe I shouldn't admit that ... High School car, you know. Anyway, the pair are short and long which changes the tone, the heads are the same as far as I know. They come apart, so you can knock out the wads of rust and such, but be real careful of the electric components once you have the round cover off. There's a wound resistor in there that's quite fragile (I think it's a resistor). They work real well, and for a surprisingly long time, on 12V. ------------------------------ From: TNickolson aol.com Date: Tue, 4 Apr 2000 21:56:30 EDT Subject: Re: Horns and 5 Star Cabs I was under the impression that the standard cab (5-Star Cab) had horns (ram horn shaped) up front by the grill and the Five Star Extra had trumpet mounted horns under the hood. All F1's were 5-Star Cab's, the deluxe was called the 5 Star Extra Cab. The 5 Star Extra Cab had "Twin, matched-toned, trumpet-blast, electric horns," that is a quote from the Ford F 1 Specifications form no. 7344 dated 5-52.

Has anyone ever cut new rubber for the windshield or back window? I was planning on cutting them and gluing them back together. What type of glue should I use? Also if anyone has chopped a top before did you convert to a one piece glass?
