Hi all!! I finally got the correct horn ( Klaxon 8c ) for my 1927 Chevy Capitol. Unfortunately it did not come with a mounting bracket. Could anyone post or better yet email me a few pictures of the mounting bracket for my car. My email is in the user profile. THANKS in advance for your input!!

I have a couple of different mounts but not sure what the correct one for 27 looks like. If you get a picture I can check the ones I have. Regards

Okay, now I'm getting confused. Looking at the picture on ebay, where exactly does the bracket mount to. The horn side of the bracket is straight forward, but where exactly does the other end mount to?

The horn bracket on Ebay that was referenced by Cabboy is a 1928 Bracket. When installed on a '28 it is located inside the frame left side member just rearward of the radiator assembly.
I no longer own a '27 and do not have pictures of the '27 horn mounting. The '27 horn assembly and its mounting bracket are located high up on the right side of the engine adjacent to the valve rocker panel. The '27 horn bracket is mounted using the exhaust manifold to cylinder head two attaching bolts. It also serves as a retainer for the spark plug wires which are routed over the valve cover on the '27.

I didn't reference eBay! I said I might have an original.
