QLO mini crawler is close for axles. My first large scale big rig was metal bodied rig from the same company. Wish I still had it on the shelf. The truck looks close for scale. The width of later model 1:1 is 78-80 inches or so it's smaller than 1/12 width-wise. All in all it is close to Tamiya scale.

Honestly, I would say keep it as a collectors piece. That truck will need to be so heavily modified that I just do not see it being worth it. Then again, I guess they don't really make older looking truck bodies much nowadays. I think you should scope out ebay and see what you can find for old Tamiya hard bodies. Another idea would be to use 1/18 scale automotive models and they come in a HUGE variety. Thats my take on it. Good luck!
