Heres a couple photos of 54-82589s fuel tank...it differs from any I've seen before...mainly it is rivited with copper rivits and lead soldered...all others I've seen were welded
seams....prototype or just a different manufacturer? We may never know....

Based on the date on the data plate it appears to be a very early production tank. They may have simplified their manufacture during production including changing the shape slightly.
