The Lockheed L-100 (L-382) is a civilian variant, equivalent to a C-130E model without military equipment. The L-100 also has 2 stretched versions. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_L-100_Hercules

Most obvious difference is the lack of lower cockpit windows and the deletion of the parachute side doors

The rarest were the two pax Hercules Shocked

I would say the lack of underwing fuel tanks. I'm not sure I've never seen a L-100 with any.

Some C-130 don't carry the tanks

The obvious difference is the cockpit windows as I mentioned above

The lower front and side are missing on the L-100
