If you ever fall over in public, pick yourself up and say “sorry it’s been a while since I inhabited a body.” And just walk away.
gyurickbut that is very toy-like.
No argument from me, and I'm not aware of a specific kit, but maybe you can start here and scratchbuild.

Yes, but that is very toy-like. I'm looking for something like the 1865 Densmore Oil Tank Car or the Empire Transportation Company rail tank car also invented in 1865.
Do you mean something like this?
Is there a kit available for building an old time tank car? It actually looks more like two large upright tubs or vats sitting on a flat car.
