Notes:
1961-62 Gilbert once again broke from their standard where all items carried a 5-digit catalog number. They produced three engines and three cars, many of which were uncataloged. This model was cataloged in 1962 only and has one unpainted red plastic variation. The second road number is of the model that is not powered.
