The green and blue car kinda looks like Ruffy's paint...

Just some observations... Not sure if anyone went over these and sorry if they did. :)

The Standard Length B2 Chassis has about a 1/4" mold line that runs horizontally down the middle. The graphite "Standard" length chassis also has this line.

The short chassis was an option part for the B2 and did not come in any of the kits. It was for smaller/tighter tracks.

There were only 4 versions of chassis for the B2. 2 standard (One was graphite) and 2 short (One was graphite). The B3 had only 2 chassis (One was graphite), both were standard length the same as standard B2 but with the sway bar mounting holes.

AE came out with a conversion kit for B2's to make them a B3 and A LOT of racers bought that kit.... Sometimes on rare occasions you can find a B2 chassis on a B3. Its possible that was a converted car and whoever owned it did not replace the chassis with the B3 chassis that came in the kit. It was a lot easier to convert the car without having to change the chassis and hardly anyone ran a sway bar on the car anyway.

My three. From left to right, Prototype, standard box build, and short chassis build. :)
