About the referred side chrome strip, it's not easy to be sure it's not there... So I would say it's most likely a 1960+ 220 S/SE or even a 1966+ 230 S. -- Last edit: 2012-10-05 04:25:44

Bob Dieck ◊ 2012-10-05 15:09	I would like to agree something from the good eyes department. On the 2nd thumbnail, it seems that the horn ring is shown. And it is flat on the upper half. This horn ring was a complete round one only until 1962, been replaced by the flatter one (to make instruments better seen) in 1963. My opinion is 220 S 1963+.
