Ah... M-497 Black Beetle.
Those were the days (1950s-1960s) - my favorite when it comes to military equipment, cars and much of the industrial design and technology (and few other things). :)
Btw. for those interested - engines are from Convair B-36.

Simple concept, I like it! I could see these being useful outside off road four wheeling areas even today.

Since we are close to a hundred pages!:

She has 18 main guns and 52 secondaries they appear to be ~16" and ~128mm (or 105mm) (they swapped one secondary turret with the model of BB64 - which is in a similar scale) it appears to be patterned after USN designs - it has twin 37mm instead of quad 40mm and a similar array of single 20mm
