I believe your model 311 was a 1930 electric start Senior Speedster built on special order from surplus spare Parts. At that time Ole, although still working at the factory six and seven days a week, had taken his name off the payroll, while the factory assembly workers were only working three days a week. 95% of the motors sold cost less than $150. Bess at his side doing the work of secretaries they could no longer afford. In ’31 and ’32 Ole put in $50,000 of his savings to keep the business afloat. Bess litterally worked herself to death in 1933, then Ole died of a broken heart in 1934 . . . 🙁
