Hi there. I would do some DNA testing on him. However, if you go to the Colorado Basenji Rescue website, there is a mix at the bottom of the page. There appears to be some similarities. You could also email Peggy of CBR with your photos and ask her. She has been working with Basenji and Basenji mixes for a long, long time.
My mix

The lady I got my girl from told me she was basenji and chihuahua. Take a look and tell me what you think.

She has a very strong prey drive. Any thing small and fuzzy that moves is in her mouth. She doesn't smell and is constantly grooming herself and others. She hops like a deer when running. And squeeks loudly alot especially when she is killing something. She doesn't have a curly tail but her pups with a pure bread chi did. -
She is adorable and wonderful that you rescued her! She may have the color of the Tri- but she looks all Chihuahua to me. Her ears are slightly off the side of the skull where a B has them perfectly squared forward…Some Chi's have curly tails as well. All her antics seem Chi, running etc. Cutie though! Don't spoil her too rotten!!! Take care!

Yeah I would say Chi too. Whatever she is she's a cutie! Does she bark?

She barks twice and starts making a wierd guteral noise. She just has such big ears.
