The text says that they were only studies (and nothing about building the mockup or prototype). BTW, one interesting information from the text is, that they were planning to build 10 000 vehicles per year (!) to be able to sell them for 20 000 USD/piece!

Besides the existing M Research Company Moller founded the Discojet Corporation in 1971. Bill Rose describes the same machine as in #7 as

Moller XM-4 prototype, originally referred to as the Discojet.

Paul Moller worked at Canada DRB in the days of the Avro Canada VZ-9 "flying saucer" vehicle. Seems he got the idea from there.
