Motorette Threewheeler, Hartford/Connecticut
« on: October 07, 2010, 09:41:32 AM »
I´ve found those two photographies at a well known website.

Does anybody know more about this tricycle?
The source only tells about the place and the time when the photography was made.

Can anybody identify the make?

This car is a Motorette, made between 1911 and 1914 in Hartford, Connecticut.
It was made in different models: Model M Runabout in 1911, Model A Runabout, Model L and Model N Delivery in 1912 and Model M1 Runabout and R1 Rickshaw in 1913-14.
They all had a twin-cylinder engine rated at 10 hp in a 74'wheelbase (72' for the M1 and R1).
I have pics of the Runabout and the Rickshaw...I'll bet this one is the Delivery version.
