I believe that's a Kyosho Wildcat or an Assault.

Thanks to everyone for some ideas.

I spent a few minutes researching the Wildcat/Assault and Landjump/Vanning. The Wildcat is off right away just on the rear H arms, rather then the trailing arms seen in the photo. The Landjump/Vanning is a Mid mounted engine..this animal has a rear engine although the blue frame is REALLY close!

The search goes on.
