No, the innards already exist - a raspberry pi zero and a rtl-sdr.

I am suggesting a nicely made, high quality, plastic case - with buttons and screen - that has slots and mounting screws inside to insert a raspi zero and a USB dongle inside.

I quite like the standard handheld radio form factor - like this:

... I just want a linux computer and an RTL-SDR inside ...

What people are trying to convey to you is your innate choices are very poor and recommending better picks. Not just for you, but for other readers who may try to follow in your (poorly thought out) steps.
