Compared to those on half-tracks produced by White, Autocar, and Diamond T, the fenders on this M5 have a thin side view. Like all M5s, this vehicle is fitted with the small, demountable headlights.

The rounded rear corners and smooth passenger compartment exterior are hallmarks of IHC half-tracks.

The internal layout of the M5 was essentially the same as that of the half-track M3. The machine gun mount can be seen near the front, behind the three front seats; the fuel tanks are near the cab; and seating and stowage are towards the rear.
