the FF series was the Honda CRX and Peugeot 206, however that part for those cars is a different part number and I dont see a FF-31 listed in the manual. Perhaps there was a third version that was released afterwards but not that I am aware of

Im thinking its for the peugot or crx fwd cars,, but not sure. Was there another fwd in that series? Oh snap, you beat me to it. If not fwd, then possibly for a monster truck body?

I guess is for the Mantis (EP & GP)
And there´s many bodies in that serie.

Didn't the mantis go to a MI code? Plus that's a pretty old header card. Mantis were blue header era iirc

I wish I had my old kyosho handbook. I need to find me another one of those

Mantis is MI and MIW and that header card is way too old for the Mantis.

This looks like a light bucket holder for one of the two bodies mentioned, probably an optional part that was released later on if it's not listed in the manual.

FF-18 is the bucket and wiper set for the CRX and Peugeot. The manual doesn't show anything that high of a number. Wonder if there was a third model sold in different markets

Great... Thanks for the info and the mystery continues 8)

I'm not sure of the forum rules just yet (being new here) But the rest of the stuff I acquired is now on ebay (same ID name as here)
Some really cool vintage stuff!

I stand corrected - found and old blue plastic clutch bell and no matter how I turned the header card, I couldn´t make it spell FF.
