    The factory horn is what you're looking for. Might post a WTB in the classified section.

    Hee Hee I just looked at Tim's link and when I listened to the horn sound, my wife's little yorkie began running through the house barking at every door. I couldn't get him to stop so I had to pick him up and show him the outside of each door to calm him. He used to do the same thing every time I let a fart?

    Heh. The beep loop on the Amazon page is very clear, isn't it. Not sure how the horn connects to flatus though :?

    I think the pitch of this horn is a little higher than my Jeep horn, but it's close otherwise.

    Yeah, it is a little higher pitched than my '49s original horn.

    If you look around for a late '60s or early '70s Roadrunner horn, it is very close to what you are looking for. It has that distinctive "Meep Meep" sound, as opposed to the one on Amazon. Originals are pricey though, but you can find deal every now and again. I had one on my '70 340 Duster, it really turned heads. :)
