Looks to me like an original Kyosho Ultima (possibly a Pro) which has had a pretty rough home-made chassis and Schumacher shocks added to it. Not sure on the shell.

Actually it's hard to tell exactly which buggy it is from those photos. The front and rear ends look like Kyosho Ultima parts, but they were copied for the Mirahamm Hobby Laser and Raceman II. The wishbones mean it's more likely to be Ultima parts, to confirm it should have Kyosho Corporation moulded into the gear cover.

As has been said above, Schumacher shocks and home made chassis and top deck.
