Hi all,
I found this old International at a truck salvage yard today. I will be trying to use the red warning lights for an extra set of stoplamps up high on my bus. I also found a set of grover air horns that measure about 30" long. They are on an old ford tractor trailer rig.
I don't really know what process to follow to get the horns off of the truck. What are the parts I should make sure to get?
Is there an extra air tank I should be looking for?
The cable pull is broken, can I just get that at any parts supplier?

Also, Is the cap on my MC-9 a double layer or just a single thickness of fiberglass?

Thanks,
Devin

Hey, check out that old bus and see if it's in a restorable condition. I have an idea that I'd like to find one
like that one and do some modifications on it and make a nice little toad to pull behind my bus.

As for the cap, it's single layer, unless someone put an upgraded cap on it (not too common on the 9's).

Devin, I think Gumpy meant to say, the cap is one layer, but if you still have a stock interior ceiling, that's a thin piece of prettiness above your head, easily removed when you take the trim around off.

then you will be at the under side of the cap.

happy coaching!
