Big Red Cool

I found this build on Scale Auto one day a couple of years ago, then spent a whole day a few weeks later trying to find the thread again so I could save the pic. Sadly I didn't make a note of who was making this cool little build, or what it was. I seem to remember it was 1/16th and maybe an old Revell kit, but more than that escapes me...

I'd love to do one of these in 1:25, but I'm not sure it's even based on a real car...
