Must run on an early Mr. Fusion powered motor.

Really just what are we looking at?
My guess is a stationary motor. The spoked wheels look like teens or earlier and also the brake handle. Probably for a parade rather than a prototype. There may be some humor involved there but it is over my head.

It looks to me like Fred Flintstone meets Henry Ford. Note the moonshine barrel.
