It's by Dan Webb, yes, and it's inspired by the Miller.
But it has a name, which I need for the point so I'll lock it for you to come back with.

OK, past 10 AM... Is it possible you're looking for the name "Golden Submarine"?  That was the name of the original Miller car that Webb's creation is a tribute to., and I've seen it referred to by that name in a couple of magazine articles although I'm not certain Webb himself ever officially called it that.

That's the name I was looking for, yes.  I checked numerous sites and they all called it that so I assumed Webb himself had..
I'll stick to it and eventually the myth might take hold and it'll be called that officially!
