Would these parts honk your horn?

Proof again, that just because it's there on this 56 year old car, doesn't mean it's supposed to be there.

Reminds me of rewiring my knob and tube, 100+ year old house. My research showed that knob and tube was safe for the lower amp loads it was designed for. What's dangerous about it is people have been modifying it with lamp cord and duct tape for 100 years.
