The title says it all: What prototype, if any, is the Bachmann 40' stock car modeled after?

Two scientists create a teleportation ray, and they try it out on a cricket. They put the cricket on one of the two teleportation pads in the room, and they turn the ray on.
The cricket jumps across the room onto the other pad.

It's a Varney HO car.

I wouldn't be surprised.  Several early N scale models were copied from HO cars with no known prototype...
