Theory about Fidelity Research MC & PMC Carts


I have a theory that the Fidelity Research MC 201 and 202 were the US market version of the PMC-1 and PMC-3. They were all produced from 1980 to 1984 and the specs on each look very similar.

Also, I have searched the entire internet and found no evidence of either the PMC’s being available in USA or the 201/202 being available in Japan.

Does anyone have any info to support or reject this theory.

Thanks in advance.

When I purchased my 202 NOS a few years ago the seller had a stash of them found in his dad's warehouse. When I asked if I could get a discount on a second he refused. Said that most buyers purchased two of them anyway. I have two. Ikeda San was a artist within the cart world.
I know beauty is in the ear of the beholder in this case but the last thing I would give up in my system are my two MC 202s.
