Hot Hoorns Question

Tim Corcoran from Bainbridge Island, WA, graciously sent me a set of horns he 
believes were from a 65.  They are actually shaped like little horns with a 
trumpet at the end.  Anyone ever see anything like that?  I haven't.  My old 
broken horn is a flat circle.

Anyway, I tried them on a 12v battery out of the car and they were quite 
loud, and took so much current they fused the 16 gauge wire to the battery!  
I am afraid I'll melt the relay if I hook them up to my 1966 Roadster.  Could 
these be old 6 volt horns, and not 12 volt ones?  That would explain the high 
current draw.

Any ideas?
