        Thanks, I need this type of cap, just with the GMC instead of Chevy. Its the flat cap that fits into the deluxe wheel. Please post if it is a flat cap.

        I actually have a nice GMC horn cap that is not a deluxe. Click image for larger version

        Its the flat GMC cap that is rather hard to find, I have only seen one awhile ago. I contacted that person but they may not visit anymore.

        I may just have to have the Chevy in my GMC... for the future horn ring addition. LOL I still am waiting... I know it's coming soon. I believe... I believe... good horn rings come to those who believe.

            Re: Horn Button...

            I have not seen an actual one for sale... but I know they are about twice that if original. I do hope you find one in any case. Hens teeth are easier to find I am told.

                Your vehicle is far from original.

                Why do you need horn ring anyway?

                Why do you spoil my chances?

                WHY DIDN'T YOU POST THIS PM YOU SENT ME FOR ALL TO SEE, IAN? DON'T PM MEAN STATEMENTS. I AM STRAIGHT FORWARD. YOU ARE A JERK! I DO NOT WANT TO STEAL YOUR HENS TOOTH HORN RING CALM DOWN.... I AM NOT SURE IF YOU KNOW I AM A WOMAN AND I HAVE DONE THIS UNORIGINAL VAN ALL MYSELF. I DO NOT APPRECIATE YOUR REMARKS MADE ON THE SIDE AS AN INSULT. MAYBE JEALOUS GREEN DOES NOT SUITE YOU?

                I DO HOPE YOUR VAN COMES ALONG AS YOU EXPECT, GOOD LUCK.

                    Why not make your own offer?

                    Maybe you are an expert on prices?

                      I have no idea of what you are talking about? I have no contact whom I am negotiating with?? I am not aware of your business, I have no interest in your deals.


                      Any pictures of your van? Pictures speak a 1000 words.

                        horn rings are super rare. Probably the most highly sought after VCV part

                          I saw a van for sale awhile ago for about $5000, I thought about buying it just to take the horn ring out of it then re-sell the van. It was too far away and the van was kinda trashed but it did have the horn ring in it.

                            I am sure someone here has researched this - - - - but - - - to my way of thinking, there is just no way GM produced these horn rings JUST for Vans - - - Corvairs??? Chevy II's ???other trucks ????

                            The fits only 210 models and has 2 spokes. Fits only 210 models, hardtop, sedan, station wagon. 55 - 56 Chevrolet 210 Horn Ring. MADE IN THE USA. All major credit & debit cards accepted.

                              The link you posted is definitely not a first gen horn ring for our vans. A person unfamiliar with it might think they scored and start bidding on it. Those rings would make a nice alternative. But I have seen our horn ring in one other make/model besides 65-66 deluxe or custom vans. I've seen it on corvair vans. But, don't know if that is original for select deluxe versions of greenbrier vans or if certain owners just adapted our horn ring to use on their van. It is like a nice jewel piece to finish off that shiny project. I keep looking at interior pictures of greenbrier vans for sale in lookout for a horn ring but no luck in that pursuit so far.
