I would. I like it. As long as it's a 'counts as'-model, why not?

Maybe but it seems more like a Looted Wagon.

I mean, it's not like you've pinched a WWII air fix kit and said; "it's an Ork Battle Wagon." You've put effort into that.

It just seems a bit small, even though the Devilfish is a rather large model.
I like it though, so I'd probably allow it if some LOS leeway was given.

I'm expecting an Imperial Knights supplement dedicated to GW's loyalist apologetics. Codex: White Knights "In the grim dark future, everything is fine."
"The argument is that we have to do this or we will, bit by bit,
lose everything that we hold dear, everything that keeps the business going. Our crops will wither, our children will die piteous
deaths and the sun will be swept from the sky."

I'd definitely accept it as a Looted Wagon. I wouldn't complain if my opponent used it as a Battlewagon, though I don't think it fits.

Looks fine to me game-wise, but model-wise I think you can do better. It needs a couple of boyz hanging one-handed off the turret and a grot getting squished at the front!

Rule of cool and that's pretty darn cool!
I agree that a platform attached to the back like the beverly hillbillies pickup would be properly orky and make it more battlewagon than looted wagon.

Having never SEEN a battlewagen I don't know it's size, but if it reasonably similar, heck, go for it.
Looks awesome, orky and obviously you put some effort there.

I think a battlewagon would be a bit longer but maybe narrower than a devilfish.

If you added some space to make it at least look like it could carry some models, then sure  But I'd have to agree with the others that it looks more like a looted wagon. In fact, I used to have a few devilfish i used as looted wagons heh.
In a tourney, I doubt you'd get away with it though, far too small. Could be argued that it's MfA
