Clear Hooters Horns

[Talking Hoarse]

Hi - I am after advice.
We were given 2 12v car horns that are enscribed "Clear Hooters Ltd".
The elderly friend who gave them to us last used them (only for a year or two I think) in 1962 approx on his Riley 1.5, I gather that he had air horns thereafter on his cars, and he tells me that these are Marchal horns (I think Clear Hooters made horns for other suppliers?). They are heavy weight snail shaped horns, each with a chrome dome, and in "nearly mint" condition. There is a low & a high tone one, together they sound loud and as if a rather elegant Bentley, Alvis etc is about to pass!
Our trouble is - do I fit them to one of our "classic" cars (1972 & 1983), or will someone with a suitable 50's or 60's car pay hansomely for them (in which case the donor will get the proceeds of course)?
Any advice (maybe valuations?) really appreciated.

OK, you got me, mine aren't as perfectly formed as those, so I googled and borrowed an advert from Car&classic, those are apparently 1948 hooters. Sharp!
