Product Details & Size Guide
Add a piece of early motoring history to your workspace with this Ardsley Motor Car Company mouse pad. The Yonkers company built its namesake automobile in 1905 and 1906, moving from the 30-35 horsepower Model A to the 35-40 horsepower Model B. Its brief run makes the Ardsley a distinctive subject for automotive enthusiasts, and a contemporary trade magazine described the car as “quiet and powerful.” This design brings that compact story of American manufacturing to a desk, study, or history-focused office.
The Ardsley Motor Car Company manufactured the Ardsley automobile in Yonkers, New York, from 1905 to 1906. W. S. Howard designed the car, which appeared in two production models: the 30-35 horsepower Model A in 1905 and the 35-40 horsepower Model B in 1906. The company’s salesrooms were at 50th Street and Broadway in Yonkers. By 1906, a national automobile trade magazine advertised the Ardsley as “quiet and powerful.” The Model B had a four-cylinder engine with a displacement of 6,470 cc and a three-gear transmission. Its listed output was 35 horsepower at 900 RPM and 40 horsepower at 1,500 RPM, accounting for the 35-40 horsepower designation. The car could seat five, had a 2,540 mm wheelbase, weighed 1,021 kg, and was priced at US$3,500. The available source records no merger, successor company, or later brand transition. The Ardsley was a short-lived American automobile, with production documented only for 1905 and 1906.
