JLT 420 differs from original factory cars in having gloss paint, brightwork mouldings applied to the bodywork and a badge on the bonnet. Also, the crankshaft pulley wheel, hubcaps and inlet manifold are chromed. This car is virtually the same now as prepared for sale by Colborne-Baber in the late Forties except for the bumpers, which are from a later Beetle and the steering wheel which is a Transporter item and larger than standard. some history of JLT 420: http://www.lasteditionbeetle.org/pressdetail.php?pageId=CC199406 -- Last edit: 2006-07-10 01:36:15
