An S type? ~ I do like the style of the ones with the 5 spoke wheel that looks like a mid 60s Pontiac wheel. They have dual headlights though the taillights had changed and I like one design over the other. Someone beat me to it and called their's Draguar. See (not the best) photo. :) ~ I'm a Chevy guy. I've never been let down by any of those I have had especially my '69 C/10 Step side. :) [ATTACH=full]25548[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
