Title: Anyone know what this is off of??
Post by: vwboop on November 18, 2009, 09:23:44 PM
OK. I picked this up at one of the Airspeed swap meets. Don't remember who I got it off of, or what it came off of. Regretably I let it go with a vehicle I sold a few years back (why can't I hoard this stuff :'(). Now I want to find one or something like it. Anyone have any ideas what it is from? Trophy is the only marking on it. Anyone remember selling it to me?

my guess is that is off an old siren, like REALLY old. like the old cop bikes had that ran off the front wheel, or an old fire truck.

Looks like a little hubcap to me, maybe for a pedal car? Although not many pedal cars had pneumatic tires. Golf cart perhaps?

Actually I am pretty sure it's a horn. I just don't know off of what Marque, and from what era.

Its the badge that I am suppose to wear when I am out with my wife. Basically tells everyone that I am nothing but a trophy husband. I got rid of it cause I think that I have more to offer the world than just my good looks and incredible physique.  O0
