I found after 15minutes of interrogations 😂😂  but I'll say nothing. It's a treasure. Good luck friends. ;)

As noone has found yet, let's recap the leads
  1. The first of a kind
  2. It's rare
  3. Not a Tamiya,
  4. Not a Marui,
  5. Not a Kyosho
  6. Not a Nikko,
  7. Not a Bandai
  8. This model shares some design cues with another one within the same brand, but with a different architecture. And both would be considered highly innovative at that time... 
  9. (adding this now) : Looking at the overall design, one could think about it as a copy of a famous Tamiya model


I will drop another lead tomorrow if noone finds by that time. Good luck :-)
I buy kits to built and ru(i)n them :-)

It’s not one of the Futaba models, FX10 is the only one I can remember ???

Not a Futaba. By the way which of the FX10 and the striker came first?

I’d assume the Tamiya model came first, because didn’t they just rebrand a couple of models for Futaba.

Can’t wait to find out the answer !!!!

Oh! Al, you are on the right track :)
Next lead: it has a metal (yes, metal) radiator on the front. Interestingly it's not on the box art :)

Is it an Aristo-Craft Hitec Kangaroo or Koala ?  Kangaroo similar to rough rider/holiday buggy shape
or a World Engines Rockbuster, very similar to a hornet? 
Regards
