Bill, that happens with a number of models. Another horn beeping problem is 
with 70-71 rim blow equipped cars. Back then it was novel to drive around 
with your hands in the 10-2 position (which is not taught anymore by drivers 
ed!) and should you turnj a corner, you accidentally beep the horn. nowadays 
if some dumb contraption (and I have always consider the Rim blow in 70-71 
AMC & Ford one of the stupidest ideas out there) but nowadays if someone 
equipped a car like that, you would see a rise in people getting a cap in 
their ass.

Speaking of grandmas, if mine, Maria DeAlcala, was still alive, she would be 
turning 114 this year, so in same age group as your's Bill. They could tell 
stories of when the auto first was built, and how many different automakers 
in the US in the 20s and 30s. And who had quirks like the horn above; quirks 
like Tucker roving headlight, or gas lamps in a White, or did Duryea build 
the first automobile. Or if they were into cars as much as many of us are 
here, chances are they were wooed by the new Ramblers, Nashs, Hudsons, Ajax, 
and maybe as kids they rode their Jeffery bicycle too. Quite some stories to 
tell....sort of like everyone on here has a story from a different area, of 
the country.
