My hunch is that it's a French barquette. Possibly even with three wheels?

It was meant for production.
The builder was hoping in some orders to start production.

If that was the case, then the builder probably should have done more to publicize it. The fact that we have been given this much information, and yet (so far) have been unable to find any public reference to the vehicle might help to explain the lack of initial orders.
