If you know what this is and you want it, it’s yours for shipping.

Mounted just about the driver side horn on my 365hp 1964 coupe. It’s been disconnected for a very long time. It looks like a heatsink so perhaps an amplifier, maybe the old electronic ignition amp? I know you guys know.

Congratulations, Dennis, I don’t know if it works or not, but it is yours to do with as you please.

If that is from your 64 then it’s that much rarer Not to many TI cars built in 64

It is from my ‘64 coupe and I wish some PO hadn’t destroyed it. Of course then I would have admired it and not bought it, but I would have bought a different ‘64 and then...oh never mind a circular conversation.

If It's factory original why don't you restore it and use it on your car, I'm sure poster #2 would understand.

Ok you find a performance part that makes this a rare higher end car, and you sell it or give it away? Are you stupid?

Folks, life is too short to make everything about money, originality, conformity, or some standard response that everyone should follow. I’m not stupid, foolish, ignorant, lame brained, dumb, or any other intellectually derogatory term. I’ve discovered that life is far better when I have some fun and I’ve always been a bit of a maverick. All of this has contributed to a successful career and I feel blessed. My car hobby is not my career, but I respect those have made it theirs. For me, this is fun and I intend to continue to have fun. If that makes me appear foolish or stupid to some of you, so be it.

Congratulations, Dennis, I don’t know if it works or not, but it is yours to do with as you please.

Again well said. I have got a garage full of parts that I have been giving away to a good home. All I ask of the people who take them is that they really have a need for them and use them and not resale them.

Forum member Factoid gets some serious kudos and muy respect for sticking to his guns by giving away this valuable part to Bluestripe67, if I come across anything that I am not using I will offer it up to Factoid for free. Is a '67 that I'm not using telescopic steering column worth anything ?
