The Bimel Four was a badge-engineered Elco Model 30 four-cylinder car, the rights to which had been secured in 1915 when the company making the Elco went bankrupt. A new six-cylinder Bimel car was advertised but that car does not appear to have been produced. The Bimel Automobile Company did not succeed and was finished by May 1917.
