Ever heard of a Bombay Bell?

[Curly]

I was doing some casual reading on various late Model A’s and I came across the Bombay Bell. I’m interested in learning more about this. Does anyone have knowledge of this?

[Tom Wesenberg]

Is that by chance a "Bermuda Bell?

They are mounted under the floor and give off a nice sound when you step on the mechanical push button.

Sounds like the same thing. Was this an after market thing people added? Was it specific to the new ford?

Not a stock Item on the new Ford.

You find them on Ebay fairly often, usually between $100-$200.

Thanks for the pic Bob, i was wondering what they looked like

Now i see what Tom mentioned, about it screwing to the floor and the stem sticks up through

[Curly]

Very interesting. I appreciate the information.

Some people like them. I find them anoying, but that is just me. I like to hear the engine run smooth and don't want much to distract from that sound. Bells and whistles have their place and you often find them with cars that have every accessory ever made for the A. Too each their own. Rod

I had one on my roadster, and it made for fun in a parade. They are two toned, as the upper and lower bell are different sizes. Bing-Bong.

I've heard of Bombay Sapphire and Bermuda bells...if you want one and find one look for a brass bell. They also made them out of aluminum but I think the brass sounds better.

[Curly]

They're not easy to find.

[Boston Bruce]

Wow..someone who knows how to use a contraction.

Two names for the same thing. Like in the North they say, “Potato Salad”, in the South they say, “Tater Salad”. Same thing, two names.

They are not all mechanical. Some Bermuda bells are electrical. I have a mechanical and a 6 volt one.
