The ones I have seen restored besides the high price compared to good used horns have rivets that don't look like original.

Zip Corvette Products

for gaskets and rivets

I am satisfied with how my horns came out using Zip Corvettes kit. You need a little creativity for the rivet that ends up inside the bell of the horn but otherwise, it looks great in my opinion.

NOTE: Images shown, including that of Zip's website were taken in 2018
