These little blue 3 wheeled scooters were a common site on our neighborhood streets back in post war Hamilton. "Chick" DiNatale gave me my first and only ride in one of those little gems one afternoon as I stood in front of my Hartley Avenue home. He recognized me as one of the kids who hung around Rocky's, fascinated by the stock cars being modified, repaired, and created.

1947: Rocky DiNatale's "Motorette"
These little blue 3 wheeled scooters were a common site on our neighborhood streets back in post war Hamilton.
