Notes:

The kit consists mostly of wood parts. The tank was a cardboard tube. The ends were turned-wood parts, as was the dome. Later in the production runs, the dome became a diecast metal part. A pre-printed paper wrapper was to be applied around the tank. The frame was made out of strips of wood. The kit came with C-D trucks.
