Walter Marr was the chief engineer at Buick, and designed it.
The car was given to Walter Marr after Buick decided it was too costly to produce and would not be a production vehicle. It remained in the family, being passed down to son Walter D. Marr, who restored the car in 1946, then given to his grandson, Richard Marr.

That is a light car rather than a cyclecar - the only element that it shares with a cyclecar is the tandem seating arrangement.
