S&S panel at front of raised roof
Why did S&S put the panel at the front of the raised roof on their ambulances? Is it plexiglass? Was there an option to light that panel? I just don't understand why they didn't just use steel like in the rest of the roof.

Scott: They look good lit up. I owned a 1973 S&S Medic Mark-I once that had a working one that was lettered "Fort Wright "LIFE SQUAD". I believe they ONLY came in RED that often clashed with the coach color when turned off. MM

We had a 76 S&S Medic Mark 1 with one. It did light up and the color of the ambulance (kind of a ruby red) did not clash. We really never did use it. I lit it of a few times just to see of the bulbs were good. Like John said, this was S&S's hook.

Scott, search Astra (panel's name) on site for more past posted returns.

Does anyone have a photo of a car with the Astra lit? I promise not to hijack the photo, I'm just curious to see what it looks like.

Was the astra an option, or was it standard on all their cars?
