04/30/2008. This aircraft was produced for the manufacturer, for use by the corporate transportation group at Burbank, it is either:

Lockheed Model 1329 JetStar 6 N207L c/n 1329-5050, or
Lockheed Model 1329 JetStar 8 N207L c/n 1329-5100.

The trick is that both aircraft were produced for company use.
Both were eventually converted to the Model 1329 Jetstar 731, that version was first flown in 1974, with Garrett TFE 731 turbofans. Only in 1976 appeared the first conversions incorporating the external fuel tanks beneath and forward of the wing, but not protruding above and aft of the wing as seen in the photo.
