Got a new horn

So a guy I work with picked up an old Hadley Truck horn and offered it to me for cheap. I assumed I could just hook an air tank to it and run a wire to use it, but it's an old cable pull style horn.

Is there any way that I could hook this up on my jeep? Ideally I'd like to do away with the cable pulley and have it set up on a switch. But I'm not sure if that's possible. I guess there's the option I could run the cable through the firewall and pull it when I want to use it, but I dont see that as a long term solution. This wont replace my stock horn, its more just for fun and to scare my wife when I ask her to check my blinker fluid for me.

If you can access the valve that the cable is hooked to and remove it then plug the hole that the cable went into and buy 12 volt air solenoid and install it into the air line.

I actually found the part to replace the cable pull with the solenoid through a hadley catalog. Now if I can just figure out how to wire it up, with a compressor and tank I'd be good to go!
