green machine

[dragnusa]

Been keeping my eyes open for one for my youngest son. I walked into a big thrift store ive got a couple good finds at and I walked by their back area and seen this and went and asked the manager if they planned on putting it out soon. Was told it was missing the front tire but if I wanted it they would sale it for $6. SOLD!!! Going to let my son ride it till he wears out the rear wheels then mod it with some bike rims

I wanted one of those so badly when I was a little kid, but all I had was a hand-me-down big wheel.

6 bucks is a good deal i would have bought that for 6 bucks even if the tire is missing
tires are dime a dozen you can throw any old 20 inch tire you want on it and you will be good to go.
that's only a couple years old so it's not too old either and in decent shape
you're sons gonna have a blast with it
i remember the older ones form the 80's with the hard plastic wheels i loved it but them the wheel wore out and in the trash it went would love to find an original one from back in the day that's not worn out just to add to my collection and reminisce of the days when life was simpler
nice find nonetheless

this is the one i had a child not this one exactly but the same thing
i think it was made by Marx toys if i recall right
it was quite durable but once the front wheel wore out it was done

We went thru big wheels like you wouldn't believe we would even grab ones people had thrown out and head to the hill, they was the original drift trike for us.

Never had one but my thought they was cool, I had something called a Hotseat chopper.

i used to trade him with my green machine all the time.
