Horn Bursh Cap for an 57 Oval

Blanman · Posted: Wed May 24, 2023 4:27 pm Post subject: Horn Bursh Cap for an 57 Oval

My 1957 is missing the plastic cap on the Horn Brush that holds in the brush and spring. Has anyone found a replacement or an alternative way to hold the brush in? I could purchase a new brush from WW but the $80+ cost is hard to swallow.
Thanks

Hello Blan-
One of the P.O.'s of my car used a chrome valve stem cap to repair the brush:

It's working so I've left it alone. I imagine a black plastic one would work as well.
