    "Rebuilding" red trumpet horn?

    In putting my '72 targa back together one of the horns doesn't work- looks fine, took it apart but couldn't see anything obvious. Can they be rebuilt or any tricks?Name:  IMG_8800.jpg

    That's a banjo horn, not a trumpet. Lots of threads on repairing these if you search. They can often be cleaned up and brought back to life but there's no source for replacement internals as far as I've read.

    Thx- yep these are banjo horns! Gotta lot to learn on the 911, been doing 914's for 40+ years!

    Hopefully I can get to work. Interior parts "look" fine...
