Hi John,
The one you show on the right is not in my picture below, the red interior does have the gearstick and the other 2 in the picture are in boxes somewhere. I will check if I come across them.

There's also the difference directly under the engine, one is smooth cast and the other has a well with an ejector ring present. The hole in the middle of the bay is also smooth or lipped. (I'm not sure what was going on here, but most of these models seem to be missing their front engines
)
In the past I found out that when you check the rear engine you can found out which variation you have on the front. There are 4 variations on the normal models. Check here :

Also seen that my picture by Christian is no longer on it.

Thank you for the excellent information Kurt, you have studied these in fine detail. Are you aware of the gearstick differences?

While I was checking the engines, didn't have any attention to the gearstick. As soon I find them again I will see what the gearsticks are. Wasn't aware off the difference. Thanks.

Not time to check all my models. Went to a flea market and found one with gearstick.
