    I dumped all of my old PM's accidently, lost the contact info for someone looking for a 1/18 Kyoso Boxer in red with black belly. Please contact me again, thanks.

    I was looking for one, as long as it is not a bbI . Whit the red bottom though it should be carburated

    Actually then made both as I have both, never out of their boxes. I first bought the one with the black belly thinking I would have to have it repainted all red to match my real Boxer. Then I found an all red still in the box at a local diecast store.

    Kyosho made a total of 3 different "Boxers". First came the 365GT/4 bb. It was only made with black belly. It has six stoplights and six exhaust pipes and clear light covers infront.
    Then came out the 512 BB which had only 4 stoplights and pipes and it had amber light covers. I have it in black, but long time ago it fell on an edge and bent the left a-pillar and it cracked the windshield.
    Then not too long ago Kyosho released 512 BBi which they made only in solid colors.Is pretty much identical to the 512BB except that it is not carburated. No noticeable differences if not looking under the hood.
    All 3 cars have various subtle differences, just like the real ones. Mirrors, valances etc. This is why I want to have all 3 in my collection.

    Ron you my be right about their second release. Mine is/was black so I can't use it as a reference. They were made with black bellies for sure, but I don't know if they were also made as solid color. It is not Kyosho-like doing it though.
