Strange tracked Toy find

[Citroman]

I found this great tracked vehicle on a Belgian fleamarket today. Any know this. It's very well made the metal tracks run very smooth. It has a battery opening but there is nothing in there. I am even not shure it has an engine. There is no makers mark what so ever. it's 30 cms long and rather heavy. I can find nothing on the internet. It even might be a handmade toy prototype? What do you think of it.

Hi Andy,  There is a hole but no connections for batteries, no cables nothing. At the rear there is a metal screen  but no electric motor is visible?? The cnc marking is painted on. The louvres between the wheels are really open..

Good shot, that must be it. They only have adapted the rear bed. Thank you.

The kicker is! What would an original mint condition be worth? Thin of all the original Action Men, and I mean ORIGINAL and Jhonny Seven one man armies we happily blew up burnt and broke on our childhood journeys into the Military Collecting World? JJeez If I knew then!
