Description
Do you know the original manufacturer of the Green Machine? (Huffy Bikes just came out with their 2003 version of the Green Machine and I emailed them and they said they were not the original manufacture) Also, in the description of the green machine on inthe80's website, you mention a variant of the product which you call "Blue Max". As a child I had a variant of the green machine in which I knew as the "Red Baron".

I loved this thing. I love pedaling to the end of driveway as hard as I can and push the left steering lever forward and right lever backwards - man what a 180 degree spin-out. My brother had a similar toy called the "midnight rider". Same concept, just dark blue and yellow.

I had a Green Machine growing up along with two other boys on my street. I was shocked to see that they had one when my son was little, but had changed the name to Sidewinder, with a snake on it. He rode it until he grew out of it and still talks about the spin-outs he used to do at the end of our driveway.

I had a original green machine in 1979 & it was my favorite toy of all time to ride. Now in 2008 my 5 year old son got his 1st green machine a few weeks ago & he loves it just as I did! The Green Machine will always be a classic to me!

I loved the Green Machine - my neighbor had it (I didn't) but I got to ride his. Also I remember the "Hot Seat" a chopper looking tricycle type bike. I had a regular Big Wheel then got a more rare black version called "The Cobra". Crap, I didn't keep any of those things...at 5'2" this girl could still fit on a Green Machine! haha.
