John, my guess is that your "earlier" car either had a DPO modification due
to crash damage or ????, or else it was not originally built to North
American specification. My own GT6+, 1970 model (KC75121L), is one of the
very earliest, having been built August 1969; it has the "correct" red
reflectors, different taillamp lenses, single backup lamp combined with the
dual license plate lamps in that really cumbersome plinth, etc., etc.
