I think there's only one rebel basestar because the rebels only managed to reprogram/delobotomize the centurions on one basestar. On all the other basestars, the centurions obeyed the majority vote of the skinjobs.

And it's entirely possible that, although the rebels are only made up of Sixes, Eights, and Twos, not ALL of the members of those models rebelled.

It's been a while, but I seam to recall the cylons all voting the same within their models (save Boomer.) It stands to reason the schism reaches further than a single Basestar. Of course it's possible that without the aid of sapient Centurions all the other 6's, 8's and 2's throughout the...empire, I suppose...were slaughtered and boxed.

That's what contributed to the rebellion. The models were evenly matched in voting until Boomer voted with Cavil (thus nullifying the 8s votes).
As for Cavil being too old... do Cylon skinjobs age and show their age like humans? All the Cavil models we've seen look the same way. Perhaps this model was designed to look "old," no matter his true age.

Finally got to watch this one last night. Damn! I suppose it fits with her character, but I'm sad to see Racetrack siding with Gaeta. She's saved the fleet more times than I can remember, and is pretty much an unsung hero in my book. And Zarek probably killed the only person with an engineering degree in the fleet. As an engineer myself, I took that one kinda hard.

They did say that baseships regrow damaged parts before.
