I see this as a good chassis to build an Orky battlewagon or an Imperial vehicle of some sort. It has enough detail to make look good on the bottom half while giving great scope to build up the top with plasticard and so on.

For those who are interested, it should be 6.5" long and 2.4" wide.

Looks like an airport luggage train to me, probably what they were turned into after the war.

I'm tempted by this, but then I remember the Quad Gun tractor and the 2 Nazi halftracks I got to convert (and never did) and my interest is tempered :/

To be fair, 1:48 might be a slightly better scale for 40k, as it is closer to 28mm (which is 1:56)

GW models tend to be wide and tall compared to 1/48, and 1/35 models are long.
Some kits transfer over very well -- for example the Land Raider is very similar dimensions to a 1/35 scale M1 Bradley, but it isn't true for all of them in either scale.
To be honest, the GW scales are a bit all over the place, so nothing is a consistent fit.
