I came across a small vehicle called the Bee-Line,which looks like this one,could the bee-line be this car?

Quiller · « **Reply #11 on:** October 30, 2013, 01:20:16 PM »

The only details I have for this car are its name and its intended purpose.
The name isn't Bee-Line ...

Another view...

Given the lack of controls, is this intended to be pulled by something else, or is the photo of an unfinished vehicle?

(I know, I know, that's two questions, but they are closely related

)

I suspect this is later than the Scottish Aviation Scamp, but do wonder if this might be the base for that electric car?

Quiller · « **Reply #18 on:** December 14, 2013, 06:29:34 AM »

To answer the questions:

1. I think this is an unfinished prototype
2. It did have its own power source (although I don't know it, I'm guessing electric)
3. It's about contemporaneous with the Scamp electric car

To solve this puzzle, you need to know the purpose this car was intended for

Djetset · « **Reply #20 on:** January 31, 2014, 04:02:35 PM »

Was it built for an amusement park for fair ground rides?

To be turned upside down and used as a fox shelter at the bottom of a garden.

AlexFrance · « **Reply #22 on:** February 01, 2014, 02:59:21 PM »

A golf cart maybe?

Quiller · « **Reply #23 on:** February 01, 2014, 06:41:29 PM »

None of the above...

Djetset · « **Reply #24 on:** February 03, 2014, 12:51:55 PM »

Intended for airport transportation?
