Search engines are certainly peculiar animals.
Before I posted this I Googled its name and came up with zilch.
I also did a Google Search by Image - and came up with zilch.
And yet if you Google for a Dino replica it comes up with it!

I believe it was actually closely related to the Kelmark, which was indeed a Dino replica of sorts.

I believe it based on a Kelmark, which dated from the early 1970s?
The Kelmark was of course a Dino replica, and the Dino was from 1968 originally..
